More about Tunde Oyeneyin
Motivational speaker, Peloton instructor, Founder of S.P.E.A.K. and newly minted author, Tunde Oyeneyin, has quickly become a household name over the last couple of years, developing a global audience who have been moved by her mission to inspire and believe that anything is possible. In May of 2022, Tunde officially released her debut memoir-manifesto-guide to life Speak: Find Your Voice, Trust Your Gut, and Get From Where You Are to Where You Want To Be (Avid Press/Simon & Schuster), an empowering look into how she transformed grief, setbacks, and flaws into growth, self-confidence and triumph.
Over the past two years, Tunde rose to fame on Peloton’s platform as her dedicated fan base would clip into their bikes and listen to words of encouragement and “Tunde-isms,” while pushing themselves to their limits both on and off the bike. From addressing human rights and racial injustice, to advocating the importance of “Soul Care,” Tunde’s rides quickly became among the most sought-after classes. In the wake of George Floyd’s murder, Tunde helmed the “Speak Up Ride” in June 2020 to promote change and remind people of their power and freedom to find their voices and speak up. Over 20,000 riders tuned in live, the equivalent of filling Madison Square Garden in New York City.
