What is Wise Up?

Wise Up: New York is an inclusive membership club to help you develop your emotional intelligence, life skills, and leadership potential.

Our mission is to liberate New Yorkers from the stresses of life - at work, at home, and all the spaces in between.

We offer world-class training workshops delivered by a team of over 50 professionals in a private, social, and creative environment full of laughter and play. Live and in-person - right here in NYC.
