Let’s Get Moving! A Body-Mind Fitness Fair with Moving for Life

For our June First Thursday, we’re teaming up with Moving For Life to bring you a Body-Mind Fitness Fair packed with ways to get moving and feel good!

We’re excited to team up with founder & director of Moving for life, Dr. Martha Eddy, whose work focuses on somatic movement—gentle, mindful exercises that help you tune into your body, release tension, and move with more ease, all alongside our usual high-energy favorites. We’ll kick off at 5:30 PM, and here's a taste of what to expect:

• Mat Pilates & Pilates reformers

• Indoor & outdoor somatic-based yoga

• Targeted somatic movement (focused on back, foot, shoulder, or neck relief + ergonomic tips)

• Sound bath meditation

• Emotional wellness sessions

• And more!

Also, for those who donate to Moving for Life, we’ll offer access to select VIP classes and amenities — including private Pilates Reformer sessions, the sauna and cold plunge, and more.

And because Moving For Life was founded to support cancer survivors, we’re also serving up a menu of delicious, healthy, anti-cancer dishes from Chef Dani Chavez Bello, Michelin-starred chef and a master of “food as medicine”.

Sign up now in order to be first on the list to be offered VIP experiences that you can partake of on June 5 at Next Jump! 

About Moving For Life

Moving For Life is a nonprofit offering evidence-based dance and movement programs that support physical and emotional wellness, especially for those affected by cancer and chronic conditions. Their gentle, joyful classes promote healing, strength, and community through mindful movement.

About First Thursdays:

On the 1st Thursday of each month, we host an evening for our community of high achievers, who are also "good from within". Our intent is to create a “modern day blue zone” where we tackle big challenges, share insights, & build community—all over exceptional food.

We provide the space, Michelin-level food, drinks, music & staff, including the best bartender and DJ in NYC. We don’t charge for entry but occasionally we support causes we care about. We’ve hosted extraordinary events, including:

• Misbelief book launch with Dan Ariely

• A panel with Mindy Grossman, former CEO of WW International

• A collaboration featuring five professional ballerinas and a Grammy-winning violinist

• The Invisible Extinction movie premiere with microbiome experts Martin Blaser & Gloria Dominguez-Bello

And for June 5th - Moving For Life (501c3)! Help keep these amazing free somatic fitness classes going, which have been helping older adults and survivors of cancer and other chronic diseases keep moving. Your tax deductible donations make a huge difference. For more information or to get involved, including any donations, please visit their website here: https://www.movingforlife.org/get-involved
