I have no idea what Soul Cycle is like -- is there something specific about it that you're hoping to replicate?
I know a lot of people really like Studio Sweat on Demand. Peloton also has streaming workouts that look good, at least from the commercials. If you don't require video but want awesome, slammin' music, try Aaptiv. They have not only spinning, but running (treadmill and outdoor), elliptical, stair climber, strength, yoga, meditation, 5K, 10K, half marathon and full marathon training programs -- all set to great (real) music. I'm an Ambassador and can get you a code if you'd like to try.

I'd love to try a class someday but I know it's pretty pricey. |

So what is it, exactly? How is it different from any other group cycling classes out there?

Ive done Soul-Cycle, Ryde, and Flywheel. (I am more in love with Flywheel though, but Soul-Cycle cant be discredited, what an energy and experience tbh)

Different from flywheel, where its more stadium competitive with getting onto leaderboard (Top 10 Men, Top 10 Women, Top 10 Overall), fight back that beat playlist going on, having a dedicated arm section towards end of class that uses 2-4lb body bar minis (not the dumbbells) and having to dial up or down the torque resistance. Both have a following. Some reg group cycling classes I have taken, dependent on what they do, dont include weights on the bike (that is to the places that I have been, gym classes or standalone spinning centers, could be different for some places). Playlists differ, the set up of the studio can differ, sometimes you can spend more time out of saddle, more core engagement, changes in climbs or sprints, heart rate can be kept about 75% in indoor cycling classes like Soul or Fly, can sometimes see pushups on handlebars, or dealing with things like torque.
