A company called CUL DE SAC has been hosting pop-ups around NYC, including in La Plaza Cultural on Ninth Street and Avenue C, "celebrating the storied traditions of sauna and sound."
This weekend marks Sweat #3 here.
30 min guided sauna + cold plunge sessions. Timed entry through ticketed slots. Coffee, tea, hydration, and ambient sounds provided. Capacity is limited.
Bring a suit and a towel, etc. Hours — Saturday (1-5 p.m.) and Sunday (11 a.m.-6 p.m.)
Per CUL DE SAC: "To us, wellness is a right, not a luxury." (Their website shows vintage photos of public saunas and cold pools in Finland, China and Russia dating to the early 1900s.)
We stopped by on Sunday, Nov. 23, for Sweat #2 to check out the sauna and cold-plunge scene...
