So at coffee with a few friends the other day, SoulCycle came up. Apparently everyone in the city is doing it… and are quiet happy with the results.

Shortly after Julie Rice and Elizabeth Cutler (owners) relocated to New York City from LA & Chicago, they began searching for some type of cardio exercise they could fall in love with. But unfortunately, no luck. There were certainly enough ways to burn calories, but nothing that made their hearts sing. Ultimately they realized they would have to create it! Elizabeth and Julie met at a lunch and the rest was SOULhistory! They both believed indoor cycling could be inspiring; they both believed you could incorporate upper body and core workout into the routine; and finally they believed with some great branding, a beautiful environment, and outstanding customer service, the 45-minute class could be transformed into a special experience each time.
