Students who have attended classes say they are intense. The instructors create an upbeat environment and motivates the riders. Although people think SoulCycle is expensive, it’s worthwhile and a fun experience.
Katie McMahon, senior, says, “My sister was actually the one who dragged me to my first SoulCycle class this summer, and I’ve been hooked on it ever since. It’s an intense full body workout so it definitely has improved physical strength but it’s also helped me improve my mental strength. It’s all about positivity and being the best version of yourself. The SoulCycle community is all about being positive and welcoming, which makes it so amazing to keep going back. I would definitely recommend to a friend; it’s the highlight of my day!”

Although many people feel that SoulCycle is too expensive for what it is, but I can say that from my experience all the money is worth it. Not only do these 45-minute classes give me an extremely intense and an effective workout, but it has also made me into a better person mentally, feeling better about myself and my body and it also makes me more motivated to workout. This is a great method of any high school student who needs to clear their mind from stress and is a fun workout experience.”
