Community Focused

Red Eye NY

An hour of clothing-optional Vinyasa Flow with instructor John at Red Eye NY's intimate studio space. A judgment-free, welcoming queer community setting to move, breathe, and connect with your body — the perfect grounding practice to reset before the week (or weekend) takes over. $20 per class, or grab a 5-class pass for $75 or 10-class pass for $125, cash at the door.

Line Dancing

Red Eye NY

A beginner-friendly line dance class for the queer country scene. Learn two line dances in a relaxed studio setting at Red Eye NY, then stick around to practice with your classmates over cocktails. No experience needed — just leather-soled shoes or sneakers, water, and a willingness to sweat. It's the perfect intro before hitting the dance floor and finding your people in the community.
