GLEN EAGLE SQUARE WELCOMES CYCOLOGY 202, A NEW INDOOR CYCLING AND FITNESS EXPERIENCE OPENING SUMMER 2018

Glen Eagle Square (https://www.gleneaglesquare.com/), an open-air lifestyle shopping center, today announced the addition of Cycology 202, a next-generation fitness studio that puts a unique twist on indoor cycling. The third indoor cycling and fitness center launched by founder Ellen Spell, Cycology 202 takes working out to a brand-new level. Offering high-intensity, low-impact cardio exercise routines, the Cycology 202 experience provides a total-body workout via rhythmic bicycle riding to the beat of music from a concert-quality sound system – in the dark. The new Cycology 202 fitness studio is expected to open in late summer and will be located next to Jos. A. Bank on the Chadds Ford Township side of the shopping center.

“Cycology 202 is an important addition to Glen Eagle Square, demonstrating the center’s commitment to bringing the most disruptive, exciting fashion, food and entertainment options available to Glen Eagle and the entire Chadds Ford Township community,” says Robyn Marano, Vice President of Marketing, Madison Marquette. “The Cycology 202 format is the ‘Uber’ of the indoor cycling world. It’s entirely new and unique, and it has turned the monotony of exercise upside down. Who says you can’t have fun and get fit at the same time?”

“Knowing how to tailor a business to what the community really wants and needs can only happen if you are actually a local yourself, like I am,” says Ellen Spell, founder of Cycology 202. “I’ve spent a lot of time shopping, dining and just hanging out at Glen Eagle Square, and I absolutely love it there. So, as the idea for the Cycology 202 format evolved, I immediately knew that Glen Eagle Square was the right location. With retailers like Athleta and Philadelphia Runner, the co-tenancy is perfect, and we’ve developed a unique format for fitness that I know will appeal to Glen Eagle Square’s shoppers because I’m one of them.”

Cycology 202 is a new concept in fitness that pumps up the enjoyment while raising the heart rate. Each 45-minute indoor cycling class burns serious fat and calories using a series of choreographed routines on the bike that incorporate upper body moves to deliver an efficient “whole-body” workout. Instead of beating their own best time or hitting a target heart rate, Cycology 202 makes workouts fun and interactive. Timed to the beat of popular music, each indoor cycling class is held in a darkened nightclub-like environment with stage lighting illuminating the instructor, all of which makes this exercise routine feel like a dance party on a bike.

To help clients get as much as 30 percent more out of every workout, the studio requires clients to wear special clipless shoes, available on site, for a smoother, more joint-friendly and effective ride. Cycology 202 also offers unique classes that combine 35 minutes of cycling with 25 minutes of other types of resistance training including mat Pilates, weighted yoga, barre and resistance bands, and more. Cycology 202 will also offer 45-minute classes that include total resistance exercise (TRX), yoga, barre and more.

At Cycology 202, every aspect of what fitness means has been re-thought and redesigned, even down to how bikes are allocated during classes; using the studio’s unique “spot scheduler,” clients can reserve their favorite bike in advance. Memberships and drop-in prices are both available, as well, and classes are offered seven days a week – as early as 5:45 a.m. and as late as 6 p.m. on weekdays – so clients can conveniently and consistently work exercise into their daily schedules.
