About Us

Welcome to the Mount Sinai Sauna Society!

The mission of the Mount Sinai Sauna Society is to provide a space for students to prioritize their physical and mental health through the use of sauna facilities. We believe that regular sauna use can offer numerous health benefits, including stress reduction, improved circulation, and increased relaxation. We strive to foster a welcoming and inclusive community that encourages the exchange of ideas and promotes positive wellness practices. Our goal is to create an environment that supports our members in achieving a balanced and healthy lifestyle, both inside and outside of the sauna.

About Us

The Mount Sinai DJ club aims to bring students together through a communal love for music. Through events that will be hosted throughout the year for various genres of music, we hope to blend diverse groups and experiences together. These events will vary in locations, from the Student Lounge to Aron Hall communal areas and more. In addition, we hope to collaborate with Student Council Social Committee to hosting events such as the Halloween Party and Boat Cruise to have more student DJs play the music they love and share it with the rest of the student body.
