“As a parent whose daughter has been dancing at Power House Dance Academy for several years, I cannot express enough how grateful we are for this incredible studio and its staff. From the very beginning, we were welcomed with warm smiles and open arms something that has remained constant throughout our journey here.
The professionalism of the entire team is unmatched. Every instructor brings not only deep expertise but also a genuine passion for teaching and nurturing young dancers. They've created an environment that is both disciplined and supportive, where students are encouraged to grow not just as dancers, but as confident individuals. What truly sets Power House Dance Academy apart is their commitment to teaching the art of true dance. Technique, expression, dedication, and respect for the craft are emphasized in every class. Our daughter has grown so much not just in her skills, but in her love and understanding of dance, and that’s thanks to the amazing teachers who inspire her every day.
Power House Dance Academy isn’t just a studio it’s a second home, a community, and a family. We feel incredibly lucky to be a part of it.
A Grateful Dance Parent“

“I’ve taken several classes already and I’m hooked! The instructors respect the original practice and structure of Bikram and the corrections are always done thoughtfully. The manager creates a welcoming environment. Ask for the electrolyte water.“

“I had the most incredible Thai massage experience at Sukho Thai Healing. This place is truly a hidden gem—if my friend hadn’t gifted me a session, I might never have discovered it. From the moment I walked in, it felt like I had stepped into a Forbes 5-star spa.

The space is serene and beautifully curated, with stunning artwork that immediately sets a calming tone. I was welcomed with a chilled wet cloth for my hands and a glass of iced tea—such a thoughtful touch on a hot summer day. Slippers and a soft linen garment were provided before the session, adding to the luxurious experience.

The massage itself was outstanding—aromatherapy, expert hands, and deeply rejuvenating stretches that left me feeling balanced, relaxed, and totally restored. Afterward, I was treated to a beautifully presented tray of hot tea and delicate rolled cookies. Every detail was thoughtful and elevated.

I’m so grateful for the gift—and next time, I’ll be the one giving this experience to others. I can’t wait to return!“

“About a year ago, I started dealing with chronic pain most likely stemming from over lifting in the gym. After multiple failed attempts trying to find an LMT who could alleviate tension and partner with me to rehab and strengthen problem areas, I am so lucky to have found Chasi at Body Mechanics.

Chasi has made a huge difference in my recovery. She is very talented and comes to every session with a POV of what we want to work on based on how my body has reacted in recent session.

I highly recommend giving her a visit, whether it be for an acute injury/pain, or just for a great massage!“

“Best yoga studio in NYC, this is real yoga! Jivamukti style classes and incredible teachers. 10/10, and great facilities as well“

“I’ve been attending the prenatal classes with Hayley and have really enjoyed them! Highly recommended!“

“Tetiana is an absolute amazing instructor. I always walk out of her class feeling great !!“

“Really nice facility in BedStuy. Did the first timer trial, and I went 5 times. I kinda wish I did 7 days in a row. Very nice teachers for the flow classes that I took. Can't say enough about how well kept it is. As someone who doesn't do yoga very often, I felt good about being there. If I had it in my budget, I would keep going.“

“My first Pilates class today, and couldn’t have hoped for a better teacher than Manuela! A great session, thank you.“

“Amazing dance teacher !
I had her for my first dance and after that I keep going to her weekly classes and I always enjoy it!“

“Really welcoming atmosphere for all skill levels. I particularly enjoy the challenge and engagement in Bella’s classes“

“If you want to have true yoga practicing, don’t think twice to come to this studio.“

“I live in NJ, but ever since I found Form and Flow in 2023, I travel to LIC during my holidays just to soak in the good vibes from the instructors and the studio! I’ve been to so many studios in NY, NJ, PA, and Korea, but Form and Flow is truly one of the best I’ve ever experienced—you get to learn authentic yoga and meditation in such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend! I’m always so grateful for founder Shelly’s thoughtful accommodations and offerings.“

“I’ve been coming here for a while and today is my last class unfortunately. I’m very happy with the staff being so collaborative and fixing the issues, system errors caused by me or by the system itself. I’m not even talking about The instructor yet. They were also amazing and so helpful. I have scoliosis and they always payed attention to the details and understood. Thank you so much everyone. Great job great business. I hope other locations would be as good as you’re doing?“

“I am just out of the Lyra and Silk classes by Danielle Marie Fusco and I had so much fun.She has been teaching over 20 years and she is an expert on body movements.She knows better than my doctor teaching me how to exercise your injured finger.She is there for you to overcome the fear of body movements and turn that fear energy into fun enjoyable energy.She is very patient with slow learner and puts so much energy to correct the incorrect posture over and over so that student can learn it proper way.This takes lot of energy of teacher so not every teachers would do that but Danielle Marie Fusco does it so naturally may be it is from her 20 years of experience of teaching.I strongly recommend to take her class if you want to learn flexibility of body muscle movement.Not like the weights then stretching at the gym but rather continues body muscle movement to be flexible.Who doesn't appreciate that.OMG finding Danielle Marie Fusco's class is a game changer.Enroll her class now.It will be you who would get benefited from it.“

“Friendly very helpful with adjusting. Great teachers. Would continue recommending others to come here.“

“I love Holistic Home Company! My husband and I have been coming here since it opened for massages. The owner, Laura, is lovely and truly cares about our experiences. Her massage therapists are highly trained and have different styles to accommodate different needs. I highly recommend coming here for a massage and any other service you might need. Plus, it’s a local female owned business!“

“I enjoy their polarity classes and I'm excited about their upcoming medicine wheel. The space is beautiful and clean. All the practitioners I know there are very nice and extremely knowledgeable.“

“Cool gym in Rockaway Beach. The machines crowd the floor a bit, but it is manageable and there is a separate room where one can do floor exercises. No screamers. Lockers and showers available, you bring your own lock and soap. And yes, you can safely drop the soap.“

“i especially like the 1.5 classes with Selena,Talissa and Tara,fun and challenging. Lisa at the front desk is really nice.“

“Beautiful studio and I love that mat and towels are included in the price. I love the instructors as well. Very inclusive studio“

“Best boutique fitness studio in this neighborhood - highly recommend! Convenient location, easy registration and check-in, modern interior decor with beautiful natural light flooding the studio, high-end finishes and most importantly: an all-star crew of instructors and staff! This studio offers a perfectly balanced curriculum and the members can choose from a variety of barre, dance/cardio and yoga classes throughout the day. Great little hidden gem in the UES! I started trying it out with their first-timer promotion for two weeks and have been addicted ever since! As a hardcore barre practitioner, I’ve frequented all major studios all over Manhattan and this one definitely tops my list! You’ll be noticeably lighter, leaner and stronger after just a couple of classes - amazing results!“

“I’m writing this from Australia, just over 9 years since I left Brooklyn. I was casually looking through Google Maps and was so happy to see this place is still up and rocking… this remains the best gym I’ve ever been to in my life and I’ve got many great memories of my time here! I’ve been to a ton of different gyms since moving back “home” to Australia but have never found a gem like Slope Fitness.I miss this gym so much! Great size, staff and atmosphere. Ahh the hours I spent here were well worth it. Join and you’ll see what I mean!So happy to hear it’s still going strong after all this time:)“

“First time ever going to Yoga! Jyll is the real deal - she is perfectly made for me! I felt comfortable, relaxed and really enjoyed the experienced. Plan to include weekly sessions in my life routine! Definitely a plus for the community! Can't wait for my next class!“

“Great studio for Pilates rental! Clean and super organized. You can get all small props needed for your apparatus class.“

“I’ve visited numerous popular physical therapy clinics in NYC —for everything from back and knee injuries to arthritis. But working with Central Park Physical Therapy (30 E 60th) has been, by far, the most healing and empowering experience I’ve had.

They have all the advanced equipment you’d expect, but the real differentiator is the one-on-one, personalized sessions. You’re not passed off to assistants or put on autopilot machines. You get real care, real time, every time.

My therapist is Rik Misiura , a former competitive triathlete who once led one of New York’s largest physical therapy organizations, treating athletes, dancers, and movie stars alike. These days, he works more exclusively, bringing his mastery to clients who are serious about getting better.

Rik brings an incredible range of approaches to each session, from Pilates-based movement, resistance training, and soft tissue release to breathwork and sound therapy. Every session is different because he actually listens to what your body needs that day. Somehow, he always gets it exactly right.

He also has a few secret techniques - a fusion of Eastern and Western methods - that will quite literally knock your socks off. You’ll walk in stiff or hurting, and leave grounded, realigned, painless and feeling great.

There’s something amazing about the breathwork he incorporates too, subtle but powerful, often unlocking deeper patterns in the nervous system. And at the end of each session, he offers optional sound healing: a moment of quiet integration that feels like a full reset.

His presence is calm, focused, and deeply attuned and he also has a great sense of humor, which makes the sessions not just healing but genuinely enjoyable. It’s rare to find a group with such deep expertise and genuine compassion, and I highly recommend Rik and Central Park PT. They even make house calls if you need them. If you’re looking for someone who can help you feel better, move better, and reconnect with your body on every level, I can’t recommend Central Park PT highly enough.“
