Will taking spinning for exercise make my legs bigger?

I’m short and have big calves and thighs. I’m not overweight but I would like to slim down my legs. Is spinning a good option? Or will it make my legs more muscular?
I know I can’t spot reduce. I do eat healthy but I’m looking for exercise that wont make my legs bigger.
I completely 100% advise spinning. I wouldn’t worry much about it building muscle, spinning is more of a fat burning activity rather than a muscle building activity. It really is an amazingly effective way of getting in shape, and as i said, it won’t build bulky muscle. The muscle you do develop will be lean slender muscle.
Good luck with the spinning, it’s also a great way to meet people!
not usually- but eating will affect this also.
eat really healthy (mostly veggies & lean protein) and make sure you stretch to lengthen the muscles-
