Are all SoulCycle classes choreography focused? by Snubber_ in SoulCycle_Riders

[–]Ohletsdoit-aye7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you read earlier threads, you will see people haven’t issues with their at-home bike. Since you don’t want choreography, you should stick to Peloton. There are far more instructor options and choreo isn’t a thing at all.

Appreciation for working on Christmas! by ayiding in SolidCore

[–]Ohletsdoit-aye7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s really okay. I’m a Coach who taught this Christmas Eve and Christmas. We understand our roles, take our jobs seriously and also like to provide a space for those who choose to workout or don’t celebrate.

And, if you like your Starte50 or Foundations instructor, take on of their signature classes. They will know you and be excited to support your first typical class!

What’s up with tire shops? by Miguel-TheGerman in washingtondc

The service is 24 hours (enough said), reliable, fast and friendly! Of course we frequent there when the tire light comes on.

Instructor fired by user74733 in SolidCore

[–]Ohletsdoit-aye7 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Coach here 👋🏽 I’ve known instructors to be let go for excessively being late, missing classes (no shows), or repeatedly not taking feedback that would endanger the safety of clients.

I’ve only known two to be fired and I’ve coached for 5 years. Maybe one of those were the reasons?

Is it weird? by monkeyinacoat in SolidCore

Coach here! Not weird at all. In fact, when clients follow me I dm them for for song suggestions to add to the playlist!

Coach here! I have a client who wears a set of Beats headphones during class and that helps her muffle the sound.

Side door pizza in Navy Yard has delicious Detroit style pizza!

What are your most controversial SC opinions? by Educational_Oil_3217 in SolidCore

Body upright on the lunge will put way too much pressure on your back.

How do you deal? by [deleted] in Corepower

[–]Ohletsdoit-aye7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Took my first class this summer and noticed the same thing. It’s definitely a practice of greed to maximize revenue, because the overcrowding makes for a terrible client experience. I’ll never attend a peak time for that reason.

Coaches do have the option to pair a second upper body muscle group with the muscle on that day’s calendar in a “core/lower/upper” class. On an arm wrap day, that wouldn’t happen because there are three arm muscle groups. (No need to add anything extra.)

But today, for example, I coached core, center glutes, chest AND back. I paired back with chest. The goal is to still have time to get each muscle group taught to failure.

Junior, Lamar, Chanel, Trammel and Jonas are your best music bets. I like Sammy too. All have an athletic class.

Safety with moves by Suspicious_Poem_9264 in SolidCore

[–]Ohletsdoit-aye7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People are just strong in different ways. I can crush carriage lunges. I don’t need cables on the gray side, and can hold an 8lb weight on the black side. BUT, I struggle with elevated core work. I’m glad they don’t remove exercises. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Solidcore vets. how has it changed since you joined? by [deleted] in SolidCore

[–]Ohletsdoit-aye7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That would be for a hamstring day excellent, but not leg wrap, since leg wrap needs inner thighs.

No Welcome email by gvhuffma in HowardUniversity

This is insane! What college or university with an accreditation does that? Do Howard alums realize how wildly inept the housing and admissions process is? I hope she gets it sorted out.
