Boordy, owned and operated by the R.B. Denford family, is the oldest winery in the Baltimore area. Stepping onto the Boordy property is like walking through a delicious wormhole into a nostalgic past where everyone had wine. Confront tipsy ghosts in the 1830s stone wine cellar as you and a friend, loved one, or sentient android sample the available oak-aged cabernets, vivid chardonnays, seyval blancs, and more. After whetting your taste for vino, you'll get to drink an entire glass of non-reserve wine and even take home a Boordy wine glass for at-home elixirs of coffee and orange juice.
Charm City's founder Kim Manfredi has instructed the Baltimore Ravens since 2004 and brings her 22 years of mat experience to courses that range from beginner-friendly Level 1 classes to advanced Level 3s. In beginner-yoga classes, a slow pace and careful verbal instructions impart the basics of breath awareness, mental concentration, and dodgeball mastery. Charm City’s signature Hot Vinyasa–style classes take place in 85- to 90-degree rooms, designed to loosen up ropey limbs to make stretches deeper, more effective, and more impressive to any inflexible invisible friends you may have. Other styles taught at Charm City include Ashtanga, which emphasizes dynamic postures, and prenatal yoga for those stretching for two.
This newly opened megacenter offers more than 5,000 square feet of open space for slick shoes and rug cuttery.

Learn how to pirouette like a pro with the classical ballet class (offered for beginners and intermediate/advanced), or take a fanciful tap class and finally use those tap shoes you bought for their intended purpose, instead of for alerting your skittish, shotgun-toting grandma to your presence. A Latin dance class (pre-registration required) is offered to get hips swinging and tongues rolling, while the yoga class is a great way to unwind by bringing uppity energies back down to earthly levels through relaxing poses. Check out the schedule for a complete list of dates, times, and class offerings.
