New Neighbor: Othership

We’re excited to welcome Othership, the new immersive sauna and ice bath space to the neighborhood at 23 West 20th Street in Flatiron. Originally founded in Toronto, this is Othership’s third location. The unique oasis offers guests guided sauna and ice bath experiences paired with breathwork, sound immersion, aromatherapy, and visualizations.

“We’re excited to debut our first Othership location in Flatiron, meeting the growing need in New York City for spaces fostering community connections,” says Co-Founder and CEO Robbie Bent. “Our goal is to combat loneliness and offer an alternative to alcohol-centric socializing. We envision Othership as spaces where people make friends, improve wellbeing, and experience emotions together.”

Upon entering Othership, guests begin their immersive experience. Designed by Futurestudio, Othership combines natural materials such as riverstone sliced pebble flooring, cedar and brick textures, handmade patchwork drapery, and nature-inspired colors all of which create a warm, welcoming, and safe atmosphere. With over 7,000 square feet, Othership features a custom-built sauna for up to 75 people as well as private ice baths. In addition, a 700 square foot circular tea room allows guests to gather around a fireplace to relax and connect in between sessions.

Guests can enjoy group classes that blend ritual, performance, visualizations, and expression for a multi-sensory experience. Sessions include 75-minute, self-guided journeys Free Flow, Quieter Free Flow, Evening Social, a 2-hour, unguided experience great to do with friends, and three different 75-minute guided classes. The range of class formats allow guests to connect deeper with themselves and socialize with others without the distractions of technology, while also enhancing your emotional and physical well-being. Othership also has their own breathwork app featuring guided mindfulness breathing sessions that you can do from anywhere. Download the app here.

Drop-in visits, packages, and memberships are available. For drop-in sessions, pricing begins at $67, classes from $33 to $67 and memberships starting at $55 per month. Become a founding member at the Flatiron location.
