    I recently completed the 200-hour teaching immersion at the Dharma Yoga Center in NYC, and it was an incredible experience. The studio is stunning, with a bright yellow and gold room that exudes positive energy from every corner, making me feel comfortable the moment I walked in. The staff and mentors were some of the most wonderful people I've ever met—kind, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable.

    During my two weeks there, we participated in public classes, which was an exciting opportunity. The room was electrified with energy whenever Sir Dharma Mitra taught. His spiritual lectures were engaging and insightful, reflecting his deep connection to his practice and years of learning. He communicates with a personable style and a delightful sense of humor, reminding us not to take ourselves too seriously. Remarkably, he often answered our questions intuitively, as if he could sense what we needed to know.

    The experience was so powerful that it was difficult to return to everyday life. I cannot wait to return to the studio and immerse myself in its spiritual atmosphere again. I also hope to continue my learning and pursue a 500-hour teacher training in the future. The people and the experience were truly remarkable, and words cannot fully capture the essence of it.

    Magnificent experience. Yoga in the Park on Saturday morning, with the bluest of skies, those gorgeous trees and the little birds who eat and play next to you while you are doing yoga is a magical experience. You feel like in a Disney movie ... :) Alexis Cash is a wonderful teacher. I can't wait to go back. Thank you for doing this!

    I had a 90 min massage with Yasue and she is definitely an amazing masseuse. She is very skilled and knowledgeable and I would highly recommend her. I visit many spas and get a massage monthly as I travel often for work. This is the first time I have visited this spa but have stayed in the hotel several times. Now for the spa, the check-in process was easy and the ladies were friendly. The locker area is small but clean with a blow dryer, spray deodorant,hair spray, razors and mouthwash.Of course the usual, soap,shampoo,conditioner and body lotion can be found. There is one shower,one restroom and one steam/shower room. The steam was never hot but it was very warm. I took a steam shower and it did help to heat up the room a bit more to my liking. The indoor pool is open to kids of all ages so there is a chance that it won’t be very relaxing if there are several kids screaming and playing. The water temperature is on the cool side and I do prefer more of a warmer pool when I relax. A nice gentleman sits at the desk next to the pool and not sure of his duty but he was friendly. There is fruit infused water, bagged nuts and apricots for a snack if you would like. The spa rooms are nice and relaxing and located downstairs away from the gym and any noise. You really feel like you are away from it all with the Japanese style decor. I would say this is a very expensive spa that needs a bit of improvements but overall, I would go again if I am staying at the Greenwich Hotel again. Enjoy!

    OHM is an oasis of calm in busy NYC. I go regularly for sound baths and meditations - the instructors are wonderful and make sure to explain everything ahead of time.

    This space is so gorgeous. I visited on a rainy NYC morning and wanted some rejuvantion time and to move my body after a long flight.
    The staff were great and stunning surroundings. I booked for pilates class with Gail Rivas (@gailfitness) she was wonderful and my jet lagged body felt SO good afterwards. Cannot wait to come back to the well next time I visit NYC!

    I had them do everything. I didn’t care about the cost as I needed some serious attention. I was taken back quickly, the scents and ambience was really relaxing and the temperature was warm without being too hot. It’s cold outside so this too was a welcome retreat. Worked for an hour on me and I couldn’t be happier. Now I’m ready for some Christmas shopping.

    Such a great experience. Had a 2 1/2 massage. Such a great feeling afterward. It's a bit of a workout, so be prepared, but it will fix whatever is going on and give you that fresh start you're looking for. Feeling great! A fresh start!!!

    After more than 22 hours of travel from Australia to NYC, what did I need? Pilates of course! And I was so lucky to have Balanced Pilates NYC 5 minutes walk from where we are staying! Easy to book on line with email reminder for each session. Lovely and knowledgeable instructors, all who accepted my Aussie sense of humour. Mollie worked me hard but she was also very considerate of my body's minor 'issues'. And like all pilates instructors, she LOVES her job, particularly when her clients have beads of sweat running off their body.
    So if you are in NYC check them out on-line and meet these fabulous pilates experts.

    I've eaten at their restaurant Divya's a number of times and have done yoga and taken an Ayurvedic cooking class at their center. Everything about this place is fantastic! Smart and kind staff, food is out of this world and classes are great!

    This is my second time in Nyc from Puerto Rico for the restorative yoga training. Aside from the cold outside, the people I meet, the quality of teachers and their assistance, the organization and diversity of classes is a must.

    Great class. Inspiring even. But it is pity that the room was filled with this strong chemical smell from a disinfectant they used to clean all those mats which is especially bad since the room was not ventilated. I guess it is inevitable to maintain the temperature....

    They use the buzz words….yoga, Tai Chi but it is just to get you in the door. They will pressure you for expensive memberships and seminars. Google Dahn Yoga. They have rebranded the name. The goals are the same but a little more discreet. Not recommended

    After the drive into town we signed up for a cardiolates class-- blend of rebounder and Pilates. Fun if a bit dizzy. Bring a lock for the lockers. And socks.

    Epic experience. Staying in an 1000 year old fortress atop a Tuscan hill while practicing yoga twice a day and eating the freshest foods right from their Tuscan gardens. Irresistible dishes prepared by NYC chef Ed Carew and daily yoga practices by Paula Tursi. Paula's in depth knowledge of body mechanics and insight really helped my yoga practice . My wife and I developed a deeper awareness of the body and movement. She is truly my favorite teacher..too bad I don't live in NYC
