Special Guest Dj: Dj Scottie Cortorreal, Julian P, Flip
Hip Hop, RnB, Latin, House, Top 40, Hip Hop
Time: 10pm to 3am
Dresscode: Dress to impress. As you know, the venue is inside the Hotel. Patrons must be dress appropriate. Please bring your bathing suits with you.
Age: Everyone must be 21 and over.
The Grace Hotel, located in Times Square, has done a reputable job at staying under the radar. The feature that separates this venue from other NYC hotels and has us boasting is its 22-foot heated indoor pool with a swim-up bar. This isn't a conventional indoor pool for families with kids, however, it's bordered by stadium seating accompanied by tables, which offer the option for bottle service. Where there's a pool, there are bathing suits. If you're not interested in getting wet, you can always sit and watch. However, if you're willing to try something new and get a little wet while at a bar we can guarantee you'll be surrounded by hot men and women. In case you forget your bathing suit, the venue sells disposable suits outside of the pool entrance. However, we did see women get in the pool in their under garments. To go along with the nightlife vibe, there is a projection screen above the swim-up bar which coincides with the live DJ the hotel provides five nights a week. At the swim-up bar, pool inhabitants can see through the bar to the opposite side of the inside bar. However, seeing as though the bar goes through, the bartenders must attend to the inside guests as well as the pool guests. This presents our only complaint. The bartenders fall short of service when it comes to the swim-up bar. You'll find three to four people at a time waiting behind the swim-up bar to have their order taken. Halfway throughout the night the venue supplies the pool with numerous blow up balls. Just when you thought things were getting hot and heavy, venture to the third floor of the indoor pool-room and you'll find showers, a sauna and a steam room. It seems as though this venue thought of it all. The Grace Hotel is in a great location. It has a feature that no other hotel in NYC offers, and we recommend this venue to anyone who is up for a wet and wild experience not easily found in NYC

Led by Comic mime Robert Rivest, Certified Laughter Yoga Teacher/Trainer
Ready to Laugh your socks off?
Join Robert and a fun loving group for laughter, exercise and a super fun social experience!!!
It's free,
It's fun,
and it's full of laughs!
Ages:
Mostly adults from 18 to 75 (with a few young adults in their late teens).
Robert starts each club session with mindful breathing, easy flowing movements, and a few fun vocal warm-ups. This leads to a series of playful, interactive, laugh inducing exercises (that can easily be adapted to fit your abilities, mood or energy level).
The group Laughter is joyfully simulated with full body laughter exercises, clapping, eye contact and youthful playfulness. The “simulated” laughter soon turns into real and contagious laughter that lifts our spirits, connects us, and carries over into our every day lives.
After the exercises we do a little laughter meditation and end with a few peaceful moments of guided relaxation.
Club "membership" is free, donations will be accepted for the space!

| 5/26 | | Laughter Club: Free Class weekly! “Ho,Ho, Ha,Ha,Ha” | | Heartsong Laughter Club meets every sunday at 4:45pm-6:45pm.
Led by Comic mime Robert Rivest, Certified Laughter Yoga Teacher/Trainer
Ready to Laugh your socks off?
Join Robert and a fun loving group for laughter, exercise and a super fun social experience!!!
It's free,
It's fun,
and it's full of laughs!
Ages:
Mostly adults from 18 to 75 (with a few young adults in their late teens).
Robert starts each club session with mindful breathing, easy flowing movements, and a few fun vocal warm-ups. This leads to a series of playful, interactive, laugh inducing exercises (that can easily be adapted to fit your abilities, mood or energy level).
The group Laughter is joyfully simulated with full body laughter exercises, clapping, eye contact and youthful playfulness. The “simulated” laughter soon turns into real and contagious laughter that lifts our spirits, connects us, and carries over into our every day lives.
After the exercises we do a little laughter meditation and end with a few peaceful moments of guided relaxation.
Club "membership" is free, donations will be accepted for the space!
