It’s about how you show up—for yourself and the people in the room.
We’re looking for leaders who balance creativity and athleticism, authenticity and confidence, and who show up ready to build community. It’s your presence, energy, and commitment to growth.
Some things can’t be taught—but they can be unlocked.
Thank you for your interest in becoming a SoulCycle Instructor. We are currently not accepting applications or submissions at this time. As always, we encourage you to check this Instructor Page and our Instagram throughout the year for updates on future audition opportunities & training programs.
For selected candidates, we offer the chance to attend our prestigious Instructor Training Program at our headquarters in New York City. It's a chance to deepen your skills, connect with our community, and embody the SoulCycle spirit.
The Spring 2026 Instructor Training starts at the end of March, and will conclude mid-May. We are currently planning for one more training group in Fall 2026.
Candidates who are chosen to attend our training program will split their time between New York City and their regional market. Weeks 1-3 of training will be in NYC, and weeks 4-7 will be in home markets.
The length of SoulCycle’s Instructor Training Program will be 7 weeks. Each group includes one week of Community Rides and one week of Onboarding.
Be prepared to attend Monday through Friday for 2 - 4 hours each day for the duration of 7 weeks. The majority of all training hours are mid-day (EST time zone).
The training program is intended to provide you with the tools needed to teach a branded SoulCycle class, but does not guarantee employment.
Training will take place both in-person and virtually.
