SoulAnnex Introduces No-Bike Classes Taught by SoulCycle Instructors

— October 2, 2017 — Lifestyle
Soon, SoulCycle enthusiasts will be able to go to a new kind of studio to get into a workout led by SoulCycle instructors—but the experience won't involve any bikes whatsoever. 'SoulAnnex' introduces three new class styles, including: the energetic Move, a HIIT-style session called Define and Align, which promotes active recovery.

Part of the reason that SoulCycle became such a success when it first opened is that it excelled at transforming the experience of working out into a complete experience with music and inspiring instructors. SoulAnnex is set to approach its bike-free workouts in the same way and introduce new ways for fans of the franchise to stretch and sweat.

The first SoulAnnex studio is stationed in New York City’s Flatiron District.
