SOUL TRAIN
Celeb-approved spinning sanctuary SoulCycle has at long last opened a second studio in Rittenhouse. If Ardmore is any indicator, Philly’s fittest will be heatedly vying for these 58 bikes. Anthony DiMaggio, VP of development says, “The success of Ardmore has proven that there is a demand for SoulCycle in both suburban and urban areas.” Expect to burn up to 700 calories during each 45-minute class. 113 S. 16th St., 215-398-7685

SWEAT EQUITY
With eight locations across the 215, Sweat is planting its fitness flag just steps from City Hall with a new 25,000- square-foot mega-gym that’s home to an indoor track and a trio of studios for spinning, barre, and Pilates classes. “We look forward to seeing Mayor Kenney sweating on the gym floor soon,” says President Tracy Shannon. 1 South Broad St., 215-564-0303

Barre fanatics can now take their workouts up a notch with a plie in the pool.
