Very concerning tbh

I took a class recently during which another rider just did their own thing the whole time. I understand not doing choreography but they didn’t appear to even be trying to keep on beat—they seemed to have the resistance cranked up the whole time and were watching themselves in the mirror (form was bad tho😔) They were in a very visible position in the room and it was honestly distracting, especially when they kept going through the arms section and even the stretch.

I won’t reveal the class, instructor or market because I don’t want to embarrass anyone, but how common is this? Does the rider just want access to a stationary bike lol? Seems like there would be more affordable ways… also seems a little insensitive to the instructor!

I started SoulCycle a month ago and only go to the Tribeca studio. I love Isabella's and Hannah Q. classes, as they are easy to follow and have good pop music-themed playlists.

Could any of you suggest instructors with similar vibes and beginner friendly in other studios like FiDi, 19th Street, or other nearby ones?

hi guys! i am visiting nyc this upcoming week and staying in Chelsea. i ride regularly in LA and Edward, Logan, Ross are my regular instructors and i just tried Lo today and she’s also amazing! i am looking for some recs for who to take that are similar to them :) thanks so much again!

I really wish Soul would bring back a free class prize or anything in the discount classes for the prizes….I do not want retail credit 🙄

It’s becoming less and less common for them. For the people with many rides under their belt it’s nice to have some incentive (I have 550 and not even getting remotely a discount on those occasionally is insane)

At least discount for turn it up on packs, a free ride on milestones not just birthdays!

has anyone else signed up for it ? What ways are people fundraising??
