Free Day of Yoga at Bikram Williamsburg

The 7th year anniversary of the Bikram Yoga Williamsburg is this Saturday, and as per usual, they are celebrating with a day of free yoga, massages, yoga tea and other treats. This year they are also celebrating their newly opened sister space, Jivan Yoga Center. They took over Zach Galifaknis old apartment (ha!) above the first studio and now have a store, meditation room and a juice bar (oh la la).

More info at their website.

Hipster Rehab

Not looking to relocate to California to kick your drug/alcohol habit? Need “a drug- and alcohol-free chaperone” when your band is on tour? Loft 107 in Williamsburg, may be just what you’re looking for. They don’t use the word hipster — that is unless you note the URL — but details about this “plush” hipster rehab clinic are outlined in today’s Times:

Opened in 2009 by Joe Schrank, a 41-year-old social worker and longtime promoter of drug and alcohol recovery, the Loft, as it is known, is a high-end facility for people who have already gone through the isolation of rehabilitation and want an intermediate step back into their regular lives…

Sprawling across three apartments on two floors that total 7,000 square feet, the light-filled space is furnished with sectional couches and club chairs from Restoration Hardware. Exposed brick walls are hung with framed Hatch Show Prints, rock-themed art and flat-screen TVs. The overall effect is of a spread in a shelter magazine or the set of a reality show. “It’s the ‘Real Sober World,’ ” Mr. Schrank joked….

Hidden away from the communal spaces are 10 bedrooms. It costs $12,500 a month to occupy one alone; $8,500 to share with two others of the same sex….

Mr. Schrank is quick to point out that the Loft isn’t for everyone. Then again, neither is his approach to sobriety. “You’re not really helping people by trying to be their friend,” he said, adding: “I’m not really a ‘friends’ person. That’s sort of the irony. I don’t really like people all that much. People ask me about that all the time and I think, ‘Well, I don’t have to like them to care about them.’ ”

On another note, are we the only ones who find former Radar founder Maer Roshan’s latest project — Schrank is involved — a bit curious?
