Green Monkey

As a community, Green Monkey is thriving. Across its three locations, it's taken on dozens of instructors who lead more than 36 types of classes. As with Richard Nixon's five-octave singing voice, the classes' range is striking. Meditation classes rely on breathing techniques and silent affirmations to quiet the mind, whereas Rockin’ Power Vinyasa classes use energetic music and intense movements to invigorate the body. As if all those class varieties weren't enough, the instructors also put together frequent workshops, many of which teach specific skills such as handstands and inverted backbends.
