*** GUEST INSTRUCTOR: 5/29 - 6/23 ***
John Wellmann has been an indoor cycling enthusiast since the summer of 2007. His very first indoor cycling ride was with Ruth Zukerman and his life was forever transformed. Born and raised in Baltimore, John was a long distance runner in high school and college. After years of formal acting, singing and dancing training John arrived in New York in the fall of 2001 and embarked on a successful career as an actor on the stages of New York as well as around the country. He continued to enjoy long runs along the Hudson and as he aged learned that the only way to maintain his energy, stamina and focus was through vigorous and committed exercise.
John was so inspired by the amazing improvement in his body shape and overall aerobic health from taking classes with Ruth that he decided to share the joys and rewards of indoor cycling through direct proselytizing in the form of teaching indoor cycling himself. John’s background in dance and the other performing arts provides him with a special understanding of how imagination can transform an exercise experience. He sees indoor cycling rides as an opportunity to escape through music and imagination into a singular world where the body has no limits. John enjoys reading, music, travel, entertaining at home with his partner of 10 years and the company of his great friends.
