I don’t think that I can clearly express through the written word how powerful, inspiring, and amazing I thought the WSSC was!! We spent almost a week in Miami learning from the best Spinning Master Instructor’s in the world. During the 3 day conference we took lots of classes from MI’s from around the globe. Each had their own style, but the same message – nothing compares to the Spinning program!
You may be familiar with the word “Spinning” as it has been used to describe an indoor cycling class, much like we call a tissue “Kleenex”. Spinning is a registered trademark and owned by a company that I work for, Mad Dogg Athletics, so it cannot be used legally without permission. At my Saratoga Cycling Studio, we are an officially licensed Spinning facility and can use that name legally to describe the services we provide. We must all have specific certifications (and take continuing education to keep them), bikes, and adhere to the Spinning coaching guidelines.
I can boast that in the over 10 years I have spent Spinning, I have remained injury free, as have my clients.
My message to you is to do your research. Are you cycling with the best and most qualified coaches out there? Are you cycling at a facility that will be fun, get you a great workout AND keep you safe? While you think you may be “Spinning”, do what you can to check credentials of not only the facility, but the instructors as well. If it is simply “indoor cycling” buyer beware.

Be happy, be healthy!
