About Us
We provide dance, yoga, and fitness for bodies of all ages, shapes, sizes at truly affordable prices.
Used to be that if you wanted to take a dance class, you took the train into the city. A yoga class? You went downtown. A boot camp, or pole, or meditation class? You just couldn’t find them consistently available at home in the Bronx. And if you wanted to access all of these classes, you'd have to consider a second job!
Sweet Water Dance & Yoga proudly offers an array of dance, yoga and fitness classes for bodies of all ages, shapes, sizes and persuasions, at truly affordable prices, right here in the Bronx. We offer DANCE, YOGA, HOT YOGA, PILATES, BARRE, BOOT CAMP AND POLE FITNESS CLASSES, plus a Wellness Spa and Children's Wellness Program, all under one roof. Through local partnerships, we bring you an enticing slew of specialty workshops & events. Sweet Water brings all this to the Bronx in an inspired 4000 square foot facility, only one block away from Yankee Stadium.
Certified and insured in their respective fields, our instructors are professional, talented and truly reflective of our Bronx & Uptown community. Our instructors also INSPIRE! They are healers, Broadway actors and dancers, artists and musicians, stunt professionals, photographers and educators, bloggers, authors and legal and medical professionals. We pride ourselves on hiring locally, and strive to support our Bronx community and economy.
Diversity in the Bronx is not just about race or ethnicity. It is also about socio-economics. The Bronx is the poorest and youngest of New York’s 62 counties, but also RICH in history, culture and talent! At Sweet Water Dance & Yoga, serving our diverse community is what drives us, and making our services accessible to our entire community is our prime directive. That’s why you will find our prices are among the lowest in the entire city, and our offerings the broadest. OUR CORE CLASS OFFERINGS ARE ALL AVAILABLE FOR ONE LOW PRICE. We extend powerful discounts to New York City & State employees, employees of not for profits that serve the Bronx, and to SNAP (food stamp) recipients.
In addition to our core offerings, Sweet Water Dance & Yoga brings you specialized dance workshops, and in 2015, we added our Pole Fitness program from within our 14 foot ceilings! We bring you some of the most talented traditional dance and Pole Dance instructors NYC has to offer. All at prices as much a 50% off Manhattan prices.
And while we LOVE the Bronx, we loyally serve all New York City, and beyond. With our location ONLY TWENTY MINUTES from 59th Street on either East or West side of Manhattan, and only one block off the D or 4 train lines, we are more easily accessible than many Manhattan studios, and our client base shows it. SWDY boasts clients as far as Queens, Brooklyn, Long Island, Connecticut, Upstate New York and New Jersey.
So come on in and check out our offerings. We are happy to give you a tour of our beautiful facility (be sure to check out our studio photo gallery). Our mission is to inspire people of all walks of life, regardless of size, shape, age, prior experience or goal to move and enjoy their bodies. Come breathe, rock, move and groove with us! Let us help you meet your wellness goals with our “happy-body-making” offerings. Come MOVE with us!
