I have been taking my BLS classes with CPR123 - Mineola for the past couple of years. The classes…read moreare suitable for both healthcare providers as well as non healthcare providers. They have several NY locations (Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Nassau, Suffolk) but I've only taken the Mineola ones as the times and location worked for me each time. I've had different instructors each class (all with healthcare backgrounds) but all of them were great. The class I took recently was with Paul. He was very knowledgeable and presented the information in a way that wasn't boring. Classrooms are clean with AC and working mannequins (they have lights that show if you're doing compressions correctly). There are also bathrooms available but I did not use them. You can book classes via their website or by calling them directly. I have done both with no issues. The staff at the front desk have always been pleasant. They will send you a confirmation email with more instructions so make sure you read that because if you're using GPS, it says to put Mineola and not Garden City. When I took my class, we were allowed to park on levels 1 and 3 marked for visitors. Check your email though in case that changes. Parking was free and plentiful. My class was on a weekday at 12:30pm. I've done all in person classes because I learn best that way so I can't comment on the online classes. I think with the online classes though you still have to come in to do the hands on portion. Once class is finished, you should receive the ecard within an hour or 2. If not, call them. Mine for some reason took 2 days but I didn't need it in a hurry. Cons: 1. There is no difference if you're doing an initial class or renewing. They used to have this option (renewal was cheaper and less time) but maybe it's just easier to have initial/renewal as the same. 2. There weren't much day and time options for the locations I was checking out (Mineola and Huntington) for July. It was either 8:30am or 12:30pm start. It would have been nice if they had some later start times or more weekend classes.

Registration is super easy, now there's no difference between first time certification and renewal which is great. In the era of covid, I opted to use the Mineola site for the first time and it was nice. Parking lot available with limited spots but there is also metered street parking as well. Cali was the instructor and I've had prior classes with her, she's fantastic and keeps things straight forward. The 3-4 hour class flew by! Have also had classes with Mike and he was superb! They all have tons of experience in emergency resuscitation. I have been to the Forest Hills and Manhattan locations also- however parking bites and I usually take the subway but I do not want to take public transport to get there until covid is more controlled. Learn to save a life with CPR123!

I really recommend going surfing in the Rockaways if you're looking for a fun activity to do…read more My biggest regret was not going to Rockaway Beach more frequently because of how accessible by public transportation it is.....it just takes a bit of time depending on where you live. I've surfed before, but wanted to try this school out since it's been a while and was unfamiliar with the waves. I did the $90 group package and it was definitely worth it. They provided the wetsuit and board, so all you had to bring was yourself. The instructors were super friendly and encouraging. The guy I had did a really great job of just simply explaining key points so you can get on your board and ride. The amount of time spent surfing is plentiful and you will have a ton of chances to ride nice waves. My recommendation is to google the wave heights and coordinate the best time to ride. Would definitely do it again, and I think for next year I'm contemplating on buying a 10-pack package so I can go more often. Surfs Up!

The water was 65 degrees, but with the wet suit they provided I felt comfortable the whole time. The board was a 9 foot foam top with three fins. Angela provided on-beach instruction on how to paddle and pop-up -- which was pretty quick, so we got right in the water. Andrew took us in the water and we started catching waves right away. He puts you in just the right position and gives you a push and tells you when to pop-up. We basically caught a ton of waves all day with tips on form throughout. Andrew is very nice and a pleasure to hang with. The waves were small, maybe 2 to 3 feet, but it was perfect for learning how to stand up and ride straight in to the beach.

New Design High School was visited twice to attend the following Rooftop Film Events: The"Polite Society" Advanced Screening was held in 2023. Because it was raining that day, we were directed to New Design High School's Auditorium in the lobby instead of the school's rooftop area. New Design High School's Auditorium is spacious, clean and the seats were comfortable enough as we watched Polite Society. "Rooftop Film Presents: 20th Anniversary of Napoleon Dynamte" Screening was at New Design High School this year. This event celebrated the movie Napoleon Dynamte, created in 2004 & which is considered a cult-classic. We enjoyed viewing Napoleon Dynamte, as it was displayed on New Design High School's rooftop floor via a big screen surrounded by beautiful art murals after the sun set. New Design High School has colorful & vibrant murals / artwork. Rooftop Film Events we have seen showcased at New Design High School have been well organized & well-coordinated. Looking forward to any other Rooftop Films screenings that will be at this school.

It was awesome , the weather was perfect the roof walls were sprayed painted with graffiti. It was huge, and when the sunset it was a perfect view of city. Ore Ida was giving Tarter Tots, I grabbed a couple of Tee Shirts and buttons. We were allowed to bring snacks and drinks to enjoy while watching the movie. My family and I really enjoyed our time. FYI: The amount of steps you have to climb to get to the rooftop is not for the weak. I took my time walking up and it was worth it.
