He grew up in the Queen City and is a self proclaimed theater nerd but not the kind you might think.
Nick Melnyk took a chance in college and attended his first cycling class at the school’s rec center. Monica the instructor, and bikes that go nowhere awakened his love of movement and nothing was ever the same after that.
He began teaching various fitness formats and during his last college year heard about a new boutique studio opening and he applied to be front desk and instructor. It just so happened to be the very first CycleBar.
Nick immediately fell in love with the community and after graduating in 2015 he joined the original CycleBar Franchising corporate team, taking the brand from 3 locations to the international brand it is today.
As a FitPro Nick made his mark in the Cincinnati fitness scene as what was known as a CycleStar in those days, at Shred415 and other local studios.
His experience both as a FitPro and working in Operations as he helped others open studios across the country gave him unique insight into the do’s and don’ts of studio ownership.
He knew early on that being an instructor would never be enough and studio ownership was his destiny. From investors, to partnerships that dissolved, to the increasingly high costs of opening a studio Nick was derailed from his dream time and time again but he did not give up.
In February of 2023 Nyxx Studio opened in the community that raised this resilient FitPro. They offer rhythm based cycling classes and strength classes coming Spring 2024. This handsome redhead will take his Venti Black Iced Coffee with extra ice and he will help you FUCK IT UP when you walk through his studio doors.
It is an honor to welcome Nick Melnyk to the Creating The 4% Podcast this week!
