BUILD UPDATE👷 okay, *NOW* it looks like a sauna🤩

Walk into 50 S 7th St this week and the whole sauna is WRAPPPPEDDD - and the benches are going in 🥳

Last week this was framing and some paneling... Now it’s a room you can actually picture yourself sweating in: two tiers of bench down the wall, and along the back, that warm cedar smell already hanging in the air

We’re psyched to have the choice of upper or lower level, AND the flexibility to flow up and down as desired! What’s your heat level preference, upper or lower bench?

The gym is coming together as well, and feels like a place we want to be ALL THE TIME. We’ve been brainstorming movement competition ideas already… just wait

Still on the list before doors open: the floor, the heater, the glass, tubs, and the long tail of finish work… plus keeping the permitting gods appeased 🙏 (pray for us). Not done. But close enough we can literally smell it

Updating you Every Friday until we open. Anddd while the heat builds, the Movement Studio is open NOW: yoga, mobility, strength, breathwork. Schedule + booking Nervana-health.com

The most underrated way to feel better isn't in our studio - it's your front door. 🚶 A meta-analysis of 15 studies found that more steps a day was linked to a progressively lower risk of dying from any cause, with the benefit leveling off below the famous 10,000 steps.
Instead around 6,000-8,000 steps for older adults and 8,000-10,000 for younger ones (Paluch et al., The Lancet Public Health, 2022). If 10,000 always felt like a wall, you probably don't need it. The goal is just more than you do now, most days. Walking is the base layer; our Mobility, Yoga, and Strength classes stack on top. (Not medical advice.) See what's running now: nervana-health.com

Tub Club is TONIGHT. 🧊

Session #158 — every Wednesday since 2021. Five years of Pittsburghers talking themselves into cold water and walking out grinning. It's not a challenge or a flex; it's a standing appointment with your nervous system.

Here's the flow:
🕕 6:00 — doors + check-in
🗣️ 6:30 — thematic talk + guided breathwork
🧊 7:00 — contrast therapy: cold plunge and/or sauna
🔥 after — warm up around the bonfire with hot tea and hang with the community

First time? Softest landing there is. Coaches are right there if you want support, and everyone around you was terrified their first time too. No experience, no machismo; just bring a towel and swimwear.

🎟️ Cold plunge only $15 · plunge + sauna $30 📍 50 S 7th St, South Side · runs 'til about 9:30 💧 Plunge slots are first come, first served , write your name on the board at check-in

Bring the friend who keeps saying they'll "try it sometime." Sometime is 6:00. Drop a 🧊 if we'll see you tonight. 👇

Build Update 🔨 This week the sauna room got wrapped in wood; walls and ceiling, top to bottom.

That wood is basically the whole point: it holds the heat, soaks up the steam, and gives the room that warm, woody smell the moment you walk in. 🤤

Seven days ago it was bare framing, this is what we love to see!

Still to come before we open: the floor, the benches, the heater, and the cold plunges next door.

Meanwhile the Movement Studio is open now! yoga, mobility, strength, breathwork

"Motion is lotion" isn't just a class saying

Your joints have no direct blood supply, they're fed by movement, which pumps synovial fluid across the cartilage to deliver nutrients and clear waste.

Sit all day and that slows; move often and gently and the joint stays lubricated.

That's the whole idea behind our Mobility class.

No experience needed, free parking, $70/mo unlimited movement.
