Body & Brain Yoga Tai Chi — Local services in New York

All the instructors are great fun and each have their own style. Everyone is just so friendly and open. There's a wide range of age and skill so it doesn't feel overwhelming. Honestly speaking, I felt hesitant at first but my aunt pushed me a great deal to try them out and I'm glad she did. This is more of a relaxation, energy, stretching type of yoga, not the intense heated kind like I thought of when hearing the word "yoga". Years of severe depression, stress, and a sedentary lifestyle at the age of 25 wreaks major havoc on the body. I was at the point where I was out of breath and couldn't even walk a block without something hurting. Also had a pinched nerve where I couldn't bend but got it treated and the stretching we do here is helping to strengthen the area. I'm slowly making progress and it's an achievement by itself. I've only gone a handful of times but this is something I need/want to continue. My anxiety/panic attacks have lessened from a few times a week to rare. The breathing and focusing helps me not to think as much. I have a long way to go but I'm already starting to feel like a different person and everyone says they see it in my face. I came in feeling hopeless, angry, and heartbroken but all I know is that I feel much lighter, much better after every session. I'm not saying this place is going to magically cure whatever you got, it's going to take a lot of hard work and the first step is to want to change. I'm still struggling with my issues but I don't feel so alone or lost anymore. I can see myself being happy, positive, confident, stronger, etc if I keep at it. I can't wait to be full of energy again, I have forgotten all these wonderful feelings. I'm in the process of relearning how to live, not for someone else but for me. There is so much I've missed out on but not anymore. I'm ready for change and they're helping me to do that, I'm so grateful. Even when I'm feeling under the weather, they reach out to me and give me that little nudge I need to get up and go. Even got mom to join and she enjoys it very much. It's always a good time there. I absolutely and highly recommend this amazing place, there is no hint of...

I would recommend B&B to anyone looking to maintain, develop, and especially improve their physical, spiritual, and energetic well-being. I came to B&B about two and a half years ago. At the time, I carried a lot of tension in my body, felt depressed, and was lost. I had tried different ways to solve my problems, but nothing worked for me. I didn’t know what to do. However, I was ready for help—and I can confidently say that I found it at B&B. My physical condition has improved significantly, and I now feel happy, full of love, and incredibly positive. I still face challenges, but I am learning and practicing how to approach them in a way that doesn’t hurt me but instead helps me grow and become a better version of myself.

Thank you, Center Masters, for your inspiring and empowering practice!

Body & Brain Tai Chi, in addition to regular classes, offers life-changing workshops and incredible tours. I recently returned from the "Wow Meditation Tour" and feel deeply grateful to my Masters for making this journey truly a "Wow" experience. Over just six days, I witnessed breathtaking wonders of nature and experienced moments of awe that filled me with deep emotion. We began our journey in Arizona, exploring Cathedral Rock, Bell Rock, downtown Sedona, and the Grand Canyon. Along the way, we visited the Chapel of the Holy Cross, Horseshoe Bend, Bryce Canyon, Lake Powell, and Zion Canyon—finally concluding our adventure in Las Vegas. Every destination was an unforgettable "Wow" moment, leaving me with memories that will stay with me forever. Thank you from the bottom...

During the covid-19 pandemic it became necessary for me to find a way to exercise at home. I was searching for a place that offered Tai Chi and happened upon Body and Brain. Master Sky spent time counseling me about their approach which to tell the truth for me was very novel. I enjoy the classes and in spite of having limited Mobility, I feel I have gained much from attending them since April. I'm not a real student of yoga, Tai Chi is more my interest however I find the yoga classes intriguing, challenging, and quite beneficial. I truly enjoy the instructors and look forward to my sessions which I take throughout the week. Another plus is the wonderful variety of workshops that body and brain offer. Most recently I signed up for the Tai Chi experience. It's quite challenging and helpful to me. My Mobility strength and balance are improving since I joined Body and Brain as shown recently when I tripped on a curb outside and fell. I got up with a little assistance from a friend but was able to continue my walk and to stand in line with him at the post office for quite a while. I came home, did my tapping on the areas that were hurting and did not suffer any permanent or long-lasting damage. Kudos to the team at Body and Brain, you're really helping us. Sincerely Coco...
