Kelly Bensimon chats with SoulCycle co-founder Julie Rice
Julie Rice, a former Hollywood talent agent living in Los Angeles, moved to New York in 2005, but realized there was one thing from the West Coast she couldn’t find here: a good spin class.
Undeterred, Rice partnered with Elizabeth Cutler and founded SoulCycle, the indoor cycling class that has swept the city and picked up a celebrity cult following that includes Jake Gyllenhaal, Chelsea Clinton, Kelly Ripa, the Olsen twins and dozens of supermodels.
SoulCycle locations are all over Manhattan as well as in the Hamptons, Connecticut and Scarsdale, with 15 to 20 expected soon thanks to a partnership with Equinox.
We spoke with Rice about what it takes to be a success.
