I would strongly recommend Body&Brain. It is s very personal kind of exercise, stretching, relaxation and meditation all rolled into one. Unlike some New York yoga studios, it is in no way competitive or over-demanding. The emphasis is on personal growth and understanding, working to your limit to find your personal best, not hurt yourself. While the language may seem a little woo woo to those coming from our hard-nosed urban culture, it turns out that you really can find yourself through this gentle but sometimes challenging work, which combines great stretching and exercise with being coached to feel the energy within your body that you can use to help release you tension and stress and let go of your troubles for a while as you do it. That can be very helpful in maintaining your equilibrium over time, as you learn how to relax your mind and connect with your inner self. I love being able to do it online at home on a class schedule that requires me to show up so I don't just put it off till I don't go at all. The teachers, known as masters in the predominantly Korean culture of this discipline, are all very good and caring. If you do gym training, these classes are a great counterpoint to help you stretch out your muscles and become more flexible and self-aware. Give it a try and go with the flow and you'll see over time.
