Care NYC: Events This Week

Looking for a fun way to exercise. Join us for Gyrokinesis which combines the benefits and qualities of Yoga, Tai Chi, swimming and dance, and are great for alleviating pain, stiffness and fatigue. Gyrokinesis works the entire body, strengthening and stretching through rhythmic, flowing and circular movements. Music adds to the fun. Most of the session will be seated. Use a kitchen or dining chair, preferably without arms. We’ll do some standing exercises at the end. Wear comfortable, workout clothes, bare feet or socks. It's OK to wear shoes too. Register today.

What are the health facts about sugar? How does sugar affect the body and brain? How to quit sugar? The Plant Hero will point out the “healthy” foods that contain high amounts of sugar, like yogurt that can have up to 7 teaspoons of added sugar. Please bring any beverage or box of cereal you already have at home so we can review the sugar content. Register today.

We will use different chair yoga postures to release tension in the body. That will lead us into deep relaxation by following simple breathing methods and imagery. You will feel a quiet in your mind and body. These simple techniques can be used at any time to find peace and relaxation. No experience in either chair yoga or meditation is necessary! All you need is a chair, best without arms if possible, and some space to move your arms and legs. Register today.

Join Queens Theatre in an hour of singing, classic comedy, dance, poetry, trivia and more with your contemporaries.

We will also take some time to hear from you.  But most of all, we will connect with each other!
