SPIRIT: A NEW, MULTI-LEVEL ENTERTAINMENT VENUE
TO TRANSFORM NEW YORK NIGHTLIFE WITH ENLIGHTENED ENTERTAINMENT FOR BODY, MIND AND SOUL


New York, NY - Nightlife in New York City will be re-energized and redefined mentally, physically and spiritually, this fall with the opening of Spirit New York, a revolutionary multi-level experience. Spirit occupies a two-story, 35,000-square-foot space at 530 West 27th Street that originally housed the legendary nightclubs Sound Factory and Twilo. The impeccably designed two-floor venue is being uniquely transformed by a $5 million renovation that will feature three distinct zones: BODY, MIND and SOUL. The center of the Spirit New York experience will be BODY, a spacious 10,000-square-foot auditorium and performance space that seats 600 with standing room for 1,200 surrounded by a mezzanine level, which seats an additional 250 visitors. Equipped with state-of-the-art audiovisual facilities, BODY will play host to "Rapture" the first of a series of seven shows, which will change quarterly in keeping with the equinoxes and solstices. Every show will entertain, enlighten, inspire and engage the entire audience in a celebration of Spirit.

On the second floor, MIND will be a unique setting for awakening and rejuvenating the mind, body and all the senses. For the first time, nightlife revelers can venture from the dance floor and experience skilled practitioners offering massage, aromatherapy, reflexology, tarot astrology, chakra balancing and various styles of alternative, vibrational experiences. The MIND zone will offer an extended menu of alternative treatments. Also on the second floor and over looking the dance floor will be SOUL, a 180-seat restaurant serving up a divine experience of flavorful organic, vegetarian and LIVE FOOD. Selections will be created by Master Chef Chad Sarno, the leading culinary architect of "living food" creation. A wide range of share-style selections, starters and specialty items will be available. Diners and club-goers can enjoy a private organic dining experience or get a sampling of many selections at the innovative 'Share Space' community table designed for singles or group dining. In addition, SOUL will include a spacious bar complete with a unique blend of herbal elixirs that can be mixed with non-alcoholic or alcoholic beverages.

ALREADY A SUCCESS

The original Spirit Dublin has already made a significant impact on the nightlife scene in Ireland. Opened in 2001 by entertainment entrepreneur Robert Wootton, the club has drawn rave reviews for successfully fusing the dance club setting with dynamic live shows plus a busy holistic center. Now, Spirit New York will be second of seven planned venues worldwide, which will include Cape Town, Athens, Sydney, Shanghai and Rio de Janeiro.

Wootton is very serious about providing first-rate healthy, alternative and enriching entertainment on a high-energy club level. The result of his own spiritual awakening, Wootton calls the Dublin and New York venues and the five forthcoming; "energy centers of the earth."

"Today spirituality is synonymous with action; and action is every act of your life, in harmony with Mother Nature, and most importantly the harmony within ourselves, and in relation to the way in which we live" Said Don Pascual, Wise elder of the Mam Maya.

Spirit's mission is to share the wisdom and prophecies of our ancestors to unite peoples, encourage their inner development while providing enlightening entertainment in a joyful, communal environment. By creating joy and a positive experience, Spirit hopes to take a role in encouraging people to evolve to a new plain of consciousness where we allow the light that shines in all of us to shine as bright as the stars from where we all began.

Spirit New York. Enlightenment Through Entertainment
