Yoga near Howard Beach

“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“

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

“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.“

“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:)“

“Good pilates classes with various options and flexibility with timing and small classes and teachers are very kind and explain well. (6am classes, 7am on week ends and 8pm classes)
Only drawback is you can only sign up on the day (or after) of your membership renewal for upcoming classes which means lots of classes you want are full so you have to be flexible.“

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

“The first class I took here and my first in many years. It was amazing and my body feels great! I am looking forward to taking many more. Fantastic teacher, great workout!“

“This was my first ever Reiki experience, Damia was amazing! We went through the steps of what we were going to do, she listened to all my concerns and she guided me. If you are ready to release anything, I suggest you try it!“

“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 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.“

“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've been really enjoying attending classes here! The instructors are always friendly and helpful, and there is a good variety of classes in the schedule to choose from (different types of yoga, plus pilates and other stuff too!) Also, I'm someone who can be a little anxious about trying new things, especially in group settings, but I always feel at ease here--the vibe is very non-judgemental, which is so important to me. It took me a while to be brave enough to give it a shot but I am so glad I did, and will definitely keep coming back.“

“You are greeted right away with nothing but smiles and love. Such a calm and relaxing vibe. The natural light in the studio is the real treasure here. The whole place is so clean. Another highlight? The meditation room! Cozy little nook upstairs, try not to fall asleep. Highly recommended and 10/10 will be visiting again.“

“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!“

“I have to give Natalia my Aqua Aerobics instructor a five star review. She gives great instructions and leads the class in a fun workout.“

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

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

“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.“

“I have been getting weekly medical massages from Angelo Mendez after getting shoulder surgery and he has worked miracles on my frozen shoulder! I didn’t think I’d be able to ever get back my full range of motion but after weeks of him working on it, it feels back to normal. I not only appreciate his approach but also his expertise and how he shares what he notices and why it’s happening. He recognizes the spiritual aspects of things like the old fears my body holds and has helped it learn that it doesn’t need to do that anymore. I’ve regained so much confidence in my arm because of his help. Highly highly recommend him!“

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

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

“This was one of the best massages I’ve ever had. Lisa was incredible and really listened to my pain points. She actually addressed them and didn’t have a standard routine like most other places. The owner was extremely accommodating as well and I highly recommend this place. I’ll definitely be back!“

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

“The best massage I never had,professional,calm space ,very clean space.
Highly recommend this shop?“

“I booked a TMJ treatment with Delaney and she was wonderful! Her communication throughout the process was excellent, from our initial consultation to the aftercare. The massage itself was great; I felt relief from my jaw tension and pain for the first time in months! I will definitely be back.“

“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.“

“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!“
