We're coming to Park Slope this fall! Our new spot is in a lovely historic storefront on 8th Avenue + 11th Street, right off the F/G trains to 7th Ave. We have a great lineup of classes already planned (see below!) starting in mid-October. 

As you can probably imagine, opening a new spot is a challenge, and, as always, your support is what keeps us going.  If you'd like to help us with the new space, please join us for a class or purchase a gift certificate for a friend (or yourself!).

THANK YOU!
