Not your average spin class

Take a regular spin class and throw in today's hip-hop music and what do you get? An intense and upbeat workout filled with the latest dance moves.

Hip-hop music is one of the main ingredients that attracted D.C. transplant Shayla Cornick to spin class.

"In all honesty, when I first started I didn't like it, because I would go to places and the music was boring," Cornick said. "It didn't feel like a fun workout."

The Atlanta native says she fell in love with hip-hop cycling classes throughout her travels to different cities for work, but when she would come back to the D.C. area something was missing.

That is why she decided to open up her very own cycling boutique - CYCLED! - in Downtown Silver Spring, Md., in late February 2015.

"I wanted what I loved here," Cornick said.Now, not only does she get to enjoy hip-hop spin classes in the D.C. area, at CYCLED! she gets to instruct her own.

The quaint cycling studio features only eleven bikes, which allows Cornick and the other CYCLED! instructors to develop a deeper level of intimacy while teaching their clients.

"My clients get to know each other, I get to know them and it's really more like a community," she said. "The boutique style and the size of my space is really unique."
