A number of 80's and 90's babies are familiar with what was involved in getting their ears pierced whether it was the mall, it seemed like a communal affair and not an experience that makes you feel like proper attention is being paid to it.
At STUDS in Soho, they allow their guests to enjoy the experience of getting their ears pierced. STUDS is focused on the EarScape - the combined art + science of decorating one’s ear with personalized piercings + earrings, resulting in a form of extreme self-expression.
Whether you have an appointment (there is an appointment window that you can book one within) or opt to walk in, STUDS encourages people to come in, browse and decide the style that they will get.
The process begins with a consultation to decide how many piercings you will get and whereas they have a chart showing a number of places along the ear that you can have. Upon deciding on what you will get, your ears will have a trained professionals that don't uses a needle and not an ear gun. In addition, this service will be conducted in a private room!
Just this process alone makes us wonder how we endured those mall days of getting our ears pierced. This studio focuses on ears and has a number of piercings from hoops, studs and more. In addition, pricing is straight forward with the cost being a flat rate that includes the number of piercings and the jewelry to avoid surprises!
It's worth noting that the jewelry offered at STUDS offers implant-grade metals: surgical steel, titanium, or 14k gold. All of their piercing jewelry is hypoallergenic, as is some of their non-piercing jewelry (any sterling silver options). For those with a nickel allergy, you’ll want to choose titanium or 14k gold pieces.

When the weather is warm or even when there's just a hint of a chill in the area, it's obvious to think about running outside. But when the weather turns, for those runners that don't want to battle the elements, there is a studio that will allow them to continue comfortably with oxygen-enriched air!
We headed to Precision Run which is founded by athlete, David Siik who created a program within Equinox Gyms and who has a standalone studio in Flatiron. Precision Run's indoor treadmill class has custom Woodway Treadmills where you will increase your speed, incline as well as activate your recovery periods. This workout method is an interval training done in 3 parts. In each part you have a serious of increased movement. In the first section, you run for a minute and recover for a minute, in the second portion you run for 90 seconds and recover for 90 seconds and in the final section, you run for 2 minutes with 90-second recovery. Within these regimented periods, the instructor guides you through the various challenges you need to do with incremental adjustments.
As you advance throughout the 50-minute classes, there are visual cues that alert you when you're engaging in the next step of the run or transition into recovery. The music also changes to go along with the various portions of the run and the screen allows you to see your progress. Guests can access their app which keeps all the data of the races you have run. In addition, when you come to class, your machine is already set with your stats as well.
After taking this performance-based class, you leave knowing about your PR - Personal Record the fastest speed in miles per hour that you can maintain for 1 minute. We enjoyed this total body core workout as well as after the run there are a series of workouts you do on the treadmill on your back to work your muscles as well as to begin the process of stretching.
The amenities offered at Precision Run studios includes a recovery station with a number of products by Hyperice to target your muscles in the way that works best for you. All lockers also have USB charging outlets and the bathrooms offer premium amenities for use after class. There is also a bar area where you can purchase performance beverages as well as bars.

You don't always have to work out with machines! It's always a good idea to have everything you need for a total workout, while being able to tuck it all away when you're not using it. Some of our favorite items to have on hand include a jump rope that sits easily in your hands (highly suggest the foam handles), a weighted disk that can be held when you do situps to add more resistance and the versatility of a weighted bar (one of our best friends).
