SoulCycle Soho
Technically not in the City, but always worth a mention, SoulCycle is one of the original spin classes from the US, which landed in the UK a few years ago. So, make sure you prepare yourself for a 45-minute session of intense energy complemented by whopping and high fives. Perfect for both beginners and aficionados, you’ll be bouncing from your saddle from start to finish in every class. Work off the day’s stress or start your weekend with a burst of energy with a class full of smiling, albeit sweaty, faces as you give yourself a full body workout. If you’re really looking to fit right in, grab some merch from the Soul shop.
