Whether you are an entrepreneur, small business owner, business professional or just someone who wants to meet new people, this event is for you! It's the perfect opportunity to get away from your desk, have some cocktails and network with potential business partners, investors, industry professionals and new clients.... Or make some new friends! We've witnessed countless business connections and friendships form at our past events. We'd say about 70% of the crowd is usually single so it can be a great place to meet someone special as well. A Secret Networking Event is a revolutionary new event that is changing the way people network in NYC. It is a fun and easy way to connect with others in a relaxed, low pressure environment. **SECRET SYMBOL** After you sign up we'll send you an email with a list of different industries and interests to choose from. Each industry/interest will have a different "secret symbol". This secret symbol will let the other event attendees know what industry/industries you're in or what topic/topics you're interested in. Once you select what industry and/or topics you're interested in you'll be directed to a page with printable paper bracelet templates with your secret symbol on them. You can select one industry or multiple industries or topics. If you don't have access to a printer you can simply draw the secret symbol/s on the back of your hand with a marker or pen before arriving at the event. For example... those in the tech industry might have a triangle as their secret symbol... those in the real estate industry might have a square as their secret symbol... those single and looking to potentially meet someone special might have a circle as their secret symbol... those interested in crypto might have a lightning bolt as their secret symbol, etc. Then you simply show up at the venue at the listed start time and get started meeting people. **\*\* EVENT LOCATION IS LISTED ON THE EVENTBRITE PAGE \*\*** *\* QUICK NOTE: THIS IS A MULTI-MEETUP GROUP EVENT. 25 OTHER GROUPS HAVE ALSO BEEN INVITED SO WE'LL BE SURE TO HAVE A GOOD SIZE TURNOUT. THE RSVP LIST ON MEETUP ONLY REFLECTS A SMALL PORTION OF ACTUAL ATTENDEES.* *An email we received about one of our recent events: "Thank you so much for throwing such a great event. The crowd was really great and everyone was super friendly. As a busy professional I don't get that much time to get out and meet people so it was nice to be in such a relaxed environment. Event well done!" - Danielle, NYC* **//// Want to see all of the most fun events coming in NYC?

Dragon's Way Qigong® looks at the body from the angle of Qi. We all have access to personal resources that lead us towards greater states of wellbeing, and creativity. In our six weeks together, we work to experience more Qi, or energy. Maybe you’ve had the experience of healing from a bruise. This is a small example of the body’s innate power. We’ll begin the first class by talking about this power, Qi, and what it means in modern life. Each week we’ll learn the Dragon’s Way Qigong movements, which tend to be gentle and relaxing.

Our transformational new Sound Bath experience, with Leigh Higgins and Brendan Gibbons, has been designed as a completely immersive self-care experience that assists in overall healing throughout the mind-body in all of its interconnectedness. Physical: Sound vibrations stimulate the limbic system, forcing your muscles to relax and shifting us out of stress or anxiety modes by activating the PSNS/Vagus nerve. This stops the flow of stress hormones, and releases "feel-good" hormones, which lowers heart rate and blood pressure. Because the body is mostly water, it is a great conductor of sound! When these vibrations travel through the body, they promote healthy energy flow, circulation and overall rejuvenation. Emotional: By connecting us to our heart energy, a sound bath has the amazing ability to shift lower vibrational frequencies that can lead to feelings of shame, guilt, anger, fatigue, and depression—to healthier, higher frequencies that promote feelings of peace, love, and joy. Mental: When we listen to sound, it helps us to disengage from thoughts and unhealthy mental patterns that sometimes become overwhelming. This sound bath was designed to assist in creating the mental space we need to achieve focus and clarity of thought, while allowing the mind to clear and reset. Energetic: Sound healing facilitates the release of energetic blockages while promoting energy flow, bringing us back into ease, health, harmony and balance. It actually synchronizes your brainwaves to achieve profound states healing and relaxation! Spiritual: It is nothing short of profound... Sound healing elevates our sense of spiritual well-being by disconnecting from the thinking mind and tapping into the higher self. It allows us to open up and connect more deeply with ourselves. By setting an intention, we are able to receive messages/information about our lives, as well as what actions are in your highest good. In-Studio Price: $35
