Since 2002, Jeanne Marcis has served as Senior Multimedia Solutions Consultant for Clipper Magazine in Lake County, Illinois. In this role, she handles advertising sales and achieved highest off page product revenue in the Chicago region for 10 consecutive years. In her free time, Jeanne Marcis attends spin classes, which she has been doing for 10 years.
Stationary bicycles have been around for decades, but it wasn’t until the mid-1980s that Johnny Goldberg created Spinning and eventually turned the activity into a sport and worldwide craze. Previously a long distance bicycle racer, he was hit by a car while training at night.
Looking for a better way for athletes to prepare, Goldberg then collaborated with John Baudhuin to engineer the Spinning bikes and by 1992, they manufactured the first ones. Goldberg spent an entire decade developing a complete workout program for the bikes, and in 1993, Crunch’s gym in New York City launched the world’s first Spinning program.
As of 2015, there were nearly 525 independent SPIN® studios located in North America alone that were exclusively designed for indoor cycling. In addition, the sport continues to gain in popularity with the availability of bike models made specifically for home use.
