I had a lovely experience here yesterday morning for a HIIT Pilates class…read more First, I want to say that the branding and social media of the studio is excellent and definitely gave me genuine and welcoming vibes before I even step foot inside. There seem to be a good variety of classes and I was excited to take this morning one. I was greeted warmly by the instructor who had me fill out a waiver, and showed me the cubbies where I could store my belongings and the free water station. I grew to feel even more welcomed, just being in the space as she was so friendly, and the aesthetics were very warm, lit by the yellow neon lights. I also noticed a kids play area which is a thoughtful touch. The studio itself was beautiful with a large mirror and windows for plenty of natural light. There were small cork blocks, 3lb weights, Pilates circles, and stretching straps available. The class moved rhythmically, with the instructor clearly demoing each move and sequence then going around the room to encourage and adjust. It was such a relaxing, yet engaging way to start my day, especially paired with afro beats like Kaytranada and ALUNA in the background. Afterwards, we could spray and clean our props used. Mats were free my first time but I believe are for rent afterwards so bring your own and come try a class here!

The professional dancer may not be challenged, but the choreography is set where you can add your flourishes if you want to spice it up. It's a very clean and serene space.

I look forward to taking more classes as an amateur dancer who just wants to move and get some blood flowing.

Generally, the studio seems like a nice neighborhood dance studio for kids who like dance as a hobby. My instructor teaches a preteen ballet class before jazz, and the students seem nice and happy. I've met the owner, and I haven't seen her teach, but she did seem friendly and dedicated. Mostly, I wanted to alert people to the existence of the jazz class. Bill is a great teacher: he takes your development seriously, but creates an environment in which you're comfortable trying new things. And he has some great stories. The class itself is a good workout, and for combinations, Bill's choreography is accessible, but really stylish, so beginners can learn the same things as everyone else and look cool, and advanced students can push to get the lines and pacing exactly right and feel challenged while still having fun. The class size thus far has been TINY, so you have room to move, and you don't feel weird asking questions.

Trust me, I have done them all (except for Crossfit because that s--- looks like a good way to tear something and spend the next five years in pain before you have to have surgery) Anyway, I started Kristen's classes in 2011 and thought I was walking into a normal yoga class. NO! I WAS WRONG AND IT WAS THE BEST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE!!! Kristen's class feels like going to a club and dancing all your stress out with your friends for hours (its actually like 1.5 hours) but you didn't have to buys crappy drinks with Red Bull to get the dance frenzy going. This class is great cardio. For my BFF's bachelorette party, all the bridesmaids went a YBB/ DISKQUO to get the party started! (Party ended with my face in some pumpkin flavored waffles, so it all balanced out) Going to a dance class sounds intimidating... But I have followed Kristen two three studios. Why? Because the moves are very easy to follow and you kinds just lose yourself. Also, no one in the class is a mini Baryshnikov, so I extol you... GO!!!! DANCE WITH THE SPIRIT OF MICHAEL FLATLY INSIDE YOU!* GET RID OF YOUR BLAHS! GET YOUR DANCE! ON DANCE! DAAAAHHHNCE! *Apparently, the lord of the dance had a few illegitimate children which were the subject of some interesting court cases. No pun was intended. DANCE!

And I have not stopped going ever since. For the second time this May, I had a YBB Birthday with Kristen and 11 of my friends. She let me customize the entire Missy Elliot-themed playlist. Nearly all of my friends were newbies to dance and at the end they all told me what a great workout it was and how much fun they had moving to the music! It's such a fun and different experience to share with your friends and loved ones. What inspires me most is that Kristen is both a teacher and student of life. She is always exploring new endeavors that inspire the spirit - which in turn enriches her classes. Lately she has been exploring sound therapy. So at the end of each YBB class she'll do a mini soundbath/sound healing. You leave feeling re-connected, refreshed and relaxed. It's one of those things you have to experience in person so I encourage you to check it out in person if you are curious. I am so grateful for the beautiful community she creates with her classes.It's a place to reflect and connect. A manifestation of that little piece of joy just waiting for you each week.

My first review got flagged for negative cultural references - Yelp doesn't make it clear which…read moreones so I'm reposting with my best guess at what was objectionable removed: This review is specifically for their sunset rooftop yoga class at The Local Hostel, this is the only class I've taken with them, and after an extremely stressful day I wanted to do some yoga in the sunshine, bought my $25 ticket online, and made my way over. The vibe was weird from the moment I stepped onto the roof. There was man sitting on the edge of the front desk with my yoga instructor and it wasn't clear if he was an employee of Cosmic or the hostel; he was smoking a blunt and kept talking about how chill the vibe was but didn't make me feel chill. It wasn't a real conversation, he kept telling me to relax, to look at all the people and see how relaxed they were, and every time I tried to speak he would talk over me with more stoned nonsense. I just wanted to check in, so I put my phone onto the table and made extended eye contact with the woman instructor. She asked for my name and email, which I did NOT want to give with this weird rando hovering close enough to touch me. I smiled and held up my phone, and she asked again. Great looking out. I reluctantly gave my info, took a yoga mat as far from anyone as possible, and got myself set up. I got up to use the bathroom, and the same man asked, "Leaving already?! Where you goin?!" To the bathroom dude, I'm going to empty my bladder, please leave me alone. The yoga area is separated from the lounge area for hostel guests, and during the class it became clear he wasn't an employee of Cosmic, but just a random dude who decided to insert himself into the class and the instructor wasn't able to control him. He was dancing in the lounge section by himself, periodically yelling things like, "Release the dragon!" It was annoying and out of place. The instructor started the class with "Well now that summer is almost over" and the audible grown from the people there facing another COVID winter with new mask and vaccine mandates was enough to make her backtrack and say, "We're at the height summer". Don't start a class with negativity like that. As for the yoga itself, the sound system they used had some feedback and quality issues, the roof isn't flat but has lumps and curves that make lying flat or balancing on one foot extremely challenging. The instructor seemed like she was still getting her sea (roof?) legs with her routine, direction, and confidence, which I don't mind, everyone starts somewhere and she was making an effort, that's what counts to me. What was less comfortable was encouraging people to video and photograph and tag the gym on social media during the class. On the one hand, this is how businesses get promoted. On the other, I don't want dudes getting up to take "promotional videos" of my downward dog that I didn't consent to. Also, can we please put the phones away for a YOGA CLASS, if no where else, and unplug during this time? Maybe the biggest disappointment besides the creeper was the fact that they didn't schedule their class to coordinate with the sunset, the surrounding buildings block it. We had 15 minutes of sun before it set behind the buildings and a chilly shadow descended on the roof. So.....this wasn't a sunset yoga class, this was a post-sunset/twilight yoga class. Not what I would have signed up for. I'm giving three stars only because this is not a review for the venue itself, they had to work with the hostel who didn't build their roof for yoga and who don't have control over what their guests do (if the dude was even a guest, I really don't know). But I really hated my experience.

From October 2020 to December 2024, I was a member of Crunch Rochdale, which is the closest…read morelocation to where I live. Long story short, some of the people there got on my last nerve. They hogged the machines and treated the gym like a nightclub. In December 2024, I stopped going there. Crunch has two types of gyms: Signature clubs and non-Signature clubs. Signature clubs charge five times the monthly fees as non-Signature clubs, even though there's little difference between the two (it's not like your muscles magically grow faster at a Signature club). After the Rochdale debacle, I looked to join a non-Signature club at a location close to Manhattan and near a subway station. I chose Crunch Greenpoint. At Crunch Greenpoint, the people are friendly, the gym is fairly clean, and no one hogs machines. There are plenty of machines that will help you attain your goals- whether it's to get stronger, get toned, run faster, or lose weight. Overall, I recommend Crunch Greenpoint. With that said, it has quite a few flaws. The gym isn't ADA compliant. There's one rickety elevator that goes from the main fitness room to the basement. It does not go all the way to the entrance of the gym. This isn't an issue for 90% of the people who regularly go to the gym. However, there are people who work out despite having mobility issues due to an injury or a physical disability. I also dislike the layout of the gym. The gym is basically split into two floors. The treadmills, ellipticals, and most of the other machines are on the main floor. The bench press, smith machine, heavy weights, and group fitness room are in the basement. It's a pain in the ass having to go from the main room to the basement (and vice versa) to complete my workout. Also, unlike every other Crunch that I've been to, there's no water bottle refill station (there are fountains, but I'm not comfortable using them to refill my water bottle since people put their mouths near the spout). On that note, I look forward to my next workout at Crunch Greenpoint.

I've been a member of Crunch Greenpoint for years, and I never thought I'd have to write a review…read morelike this. The recent "renovation" is not an upgrade, it's a complete downgrade that destroyed what made this gym unique and functional. The biggest issue is the turf. Moving the entire turf downstairs into a hot, poorly ventilated, dark basement makes absolutely no sense. There is no space to move at all. You can barely put a mat down without stepping onto someone else. The turf area is now a 3rd of its original size and the room feels cramped and borderline unusable. It's impossible to do HIIT, sled work, mobility, or any meaningful functional training. This decision alone has eliminated the soul of the gym. Upstairs is now crammed with machines, far too many for the amount of space. Instead of creating a better flow, the floor is overcrowded and chaotic; it feels like every inch was filled just for the sake of adding more equipment, not improving the member experience. What used to be a small but energetic and community-oriented gym now feels suffocating and disorganized. What's frustrating is that Crunch Greenpoint did need an upgrade, but this wasn't it. A real upgrade would have been removing some of the unnecessary machines and bringing in better functional training equipment, not burying the turf in a dungeon with no room to move. Crunch Greenpoint used to have character. It had a great vibe. It wasn't huge but it worked because the layout made sense. Now it feels like the gym identity was erased overnight. I genuinely don't understand the reasoning behind these changes, especially the decision to move the turf downstairs. It's a waste of space and a complete step backward. I do hope that these changes are reconsidered. The renovation did not modernize the gym, it dismantled what made this place great and worth coming to.
