The organization is hosting a winter wellness getaway weekend in New York City, bringing together top brands and industry leaders

Building on the success of its annual Fitness Expo , Strong New York is hosting a weekend wellness experience to foster community in the industry. Attendees can experience the event for the entire weekend, from March 22-24, or just for the day on Saturday, March 23 ^rd .

“I want to give our community an opportunity to connect and learn from the best fitness professionals, thought leaders, and top brands in the space, and create a space for brands to connect with the audience who needs them the most,” said Strong New York founder Kenny Santucci. “Our community is educated and always looking for the best new thing, whether that’s a product, a workout, healthy snacks, or new recovery tools. There’s something for everyone within the Strong New York community.”

The Strong New York Wellness Retreat’s programming includes workouts, guest speakers and workshops . The event will offer running, bootcamp and yoga sessions, as well as recovery services like cold plunges and sauna.

Guest speaker Matt Long will speak on resilienc in “The Power of I Will.” There will also be intention-setting and mindfulness workshops for mental health. Full weekend attendees will also have the opportunity to surf. All attendees will receive a gift bag from sponsors including Vuori, Celsius, Owyn, Slate, Redmond Salt, and more.

The event will take place at the Rockaway Hotel in Queens, New York, and transportation can be provided for Saturday-only attendees.

“Hosting a wellness retreat in our own backyard of the Rockaways felt like a natural extension and something that could reinvigorate all of us during the prime winter season, whether that’s trying something new or spending some time outside the city,” Santucci said. “It’s an opportunity to challenge yourself, set new goals, nourish your body with healthy foods, get outside of your comfort zone, relax and reset, and meet new people who have the same values, goals and mindset as you.”

Aside from the wellness retreat, Strong New York has big plans for 2024. The organization will host a series of events and activations in New York, the Hamptons, and other local cities before its annual expo, which will take place in Manhattan’s The Glasshouse on Saturday, October 5 ^th .

“We want to make health and wellness a more essential and accessible part of the everyday New Yorkers’ lives,” Santucci added.
