Interested in improving your public speaking skills? Want to meet new people and engage in interesting discussions? Hoping to make new business and life connections?

All attendees will have a chance to practice public speaking and will learn helpful tricks to become a more confident public speaker and communicator. Hope to see you there! Please note that our meetings require active listening and it's expected all in attendance will be respectful to each speaker by giving them your attention and refrain from making noise during speaking roles. Any who are disruptive or do not follow the behavioral guidelines of Toastmasters may be asked not to return.

It is the height of the Jazz Age, and social revolution is afoot. This is the age of Prohibition—and of bootleggers and gangsters. Club owner Felix Fontano, the son of a successful bootlegger and crime boss—and a successful businessman himself—is throwing this private party for a group of select friends. It is a night of revelry like many other nights of revelry enjoyed by this group of sophisticates, artists, and hoodlums . . . until things go horribly wrong. **Cost:** $30 general members / $20 VIP members **Recommended ages:** 21+. **Can I come alone?** Yes, most guests do!

It was exhilarating. I was feeling a little bit down and depressed but the breathwork pulled me right out of the funk I was in. Absolutely amazing!" - Michael F., NYC "It helped me feel much more clear headed. Like a fog was lifted from my brain. I have been stressed out about so much of what's going on in the world. This was much needed and came at exactly the right time." - Christina S. The Breath is a tool that many people don’t use, even worse many don’t even realize this is a tool that can revolutionize our health and well being. This class will guide you in optimizing your breathing. The session is accompanied by lightly guided meditation to gain clarity and further de-stress.
