PRACTICE

Naked Space invites you to a monthly unclothed practice of meditation, yoga and massage in solo and partnered configurations. All are welcome.

Removing the costumes we wear every day, we willfully shed one of the ego's many skins and usher ourselves momentarily into the present. To further the unburdening, you don't need to bring anything with you to participate in the Naked Space practices. All materials will be provided, including meditation seats, yoga mats, massage oil, towels and drinking water.

Naked Space reserves the right to deny admission to anyone who violates the spirit of the group. Treat others as you would like to be treated. Clearly communicate your intentions and respect the responses you receive. Remain conscious of the present moment.

The studio opens 30 minutes before practice starts. All participants are encouraged to arrive no later than 15 minutes before practice starts. Late arrivals may not be admitted.

A suggested donation of $10 per person helps with the cost of maintaining the studio, props, and other supplies.

The Naked Space practices take place at a private studio in South Park Slope, Brooklyn. Email to request the studio location:

Short Practice
An introduction to the three modes of practice and to being naked with a group. Good for the inexperienced and the curious, for those who are building their practice, and for those who would like to expand an existing practice.

Previous experience in at least one of the three core activities of the Short Practice is recommended for all participants, but it's not required.


Long Practice
An intense, immersive practice for experienced participants. Established patterns of trust, comfort and commitment are key to the success of Naked Space. Focus, energy and sensitivity are equally important.

Admission to the 3.5-hour Long Practice is restricted for the safety and benefit of all. The criteria for admission are:

  • an active and balanced practice that complements the three core activites of the Long Practice;
  • participation in at least one Short Practice -- please notify the host of your interest in the Long Practice when you arrive;
  • a clear and committed intention to be involved in the Naked Space community, as expressed through a request for admission.



Studio opens 30 minutes before practice starts. All participants are encouraged to arrive no later than 15 minutes before practice starts. Late arrivals may not be admitted.
