TUESDAY: I called West 16th St., and all seems to be back to normal. Please check back closer to class time. If this message hasn’t changed, classes are on. MONDAY:UPDATE: 49th & Broadway is closed this evening!!! I’m so sorry for those of you who got this message too late and headed in to class, [...]
Good news, everyone. We’re cool again! According to the New York Times, “this seemingly faded fad from the 1990s is far from dead.” You have to hand it to NYSC. One thing it has gotten right over the years is that it offers many more step classes than other gyms in the city, and instead [...]
