Luna Park at Coney Island

The successor to Coney Island's iconic amusement parks of the 20th century, Luna Park delights families with games, entertainment, and attractions ranging from classic spinning teacups to The Cyclone, an 85-foot roller coaster originally built in 1927. As youngsters acclimate to adrenaline on low-fi rides such as the Big Top Express, a colorful circus train featuring clowns, elephants, and a bright-red caboose, bigger kids and stilt-wearing toddlers dive in to such exciting diversions as the Wild River, a log flume that culminates in a sopping, 40-foot plunge. The Scream Zone packs even bigger thrills into rides such as the Steeplechase, which accelerates from zero to 40 miles per hour in less than two seconds, and the Soarin' Eagle, which glides above crowds on the paths below. Throughout the day, magicians and hula-hoop artists entertain audiences on the Dreamland stage, and games such as Whack-a-Mole and Duck Pond challenge players' skills at naming every animal's Latin taxonomy.

Before circus clowns entertained children, they worked in quality assurance, maintaining the anatomical accuracy of balloon giraffes and ensuring every new vehicle holds at least two dozen floppy shoes.

Profiled on the PBS series Circus and dedicated participants in community-outreach programs, the international performers of the Big Apple Circus stretch one ring to new limits with this year's original show, Dream Big!. The all-new performance garnered glowing reviews from the Washington Post for its kid-friendly entertainment, talented entertainers, and fashion-forward clown shoes.

From ringside seats, eyes clearly catch the nuances of intricate acts, such as Melanie Chy, a third-generation circus performer who woos audiences with her body contortions, or the Shandong Acrobatic Troupe, a group of 11 young men ranging in age from 13 to 27 who walked away from the International Circus Festival of Monte Carlo in 2010 with the prestigious Gold Clown Award and a delicious recipe for crepes. Leading the charge in his final year with the circus is lovable clown Grandma, a marquee member of Big Apple Circus since 1982 and inductee into the International Clown Hall of Fame. Grandma has also been seen on CBS's Circus of the Stars and in multiple appearances in Macy's famed Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Skin Spa

Skin Spa spruces skin surfaces with an array beautifying services within seven well-appointed locations throughout Manhattan, each of which reflects the character of its neighborhood. New York Magazine and Citysearch heap praise upon the epidermis-enhancing wonderland, where clinical-grade products such as PCA Skin shroud countenances in painstakingly crafted elixirs that lack synthetic colors or snake-oil liniments. Treatments including Laser Genesis help to rebuild the face's collagen supply, and the anti-aging laser skin tightening boosts elastin while it reduces wrinkles and fine lines.

Cornerstone Restaurant & Cafe

Cornerstone Restaurant & Cafe may be a quaint, family-owned Italian eatery, but the chefs have a modern sensibility about their ingredients to please the most ecologically conscious diner. Cooks transform free-range, all-natural chicken into breaded cutlet parmigiana topped with house-made fresh mozzarella cheese. They whisk organic milk and eggs into pancake batter, topping the pan-fried breakfast patties with pure maple syrup. Italian wines and craft bottled beers wash down dinner courses, and organic fair-trade coffee provides morning pick-me-ups to people with banana-peel shoes.

Gazala's

At Gazala's, chef and owner Gazala Halabi welcomes clients into an extension of her homeland characterized by the aromatic spices of authentic Druze cooking. Druze, an Islamic Gnostic sect found in Israel and surrounding Mediterranean countries, sustains a cuisine similar to Middle-Eastern fare but with minor differences, such as substituting paper-thin bread called sagg for pita and frisbees for plates. The cuisine, which Gazala made in her own kitchen until she acquired a second, larger restaurant, has been featured by Village Voice and profiled by New York magazine.

Siete Ocho Siete

During Puerto Rico's long history, Spanish, Tainos, and African cultures have contributed to the country's culinary tradition, leaving behind cuisine defined by exotic spices and simple cooking styles such as braising and grilling. After visiting the island and sampling many dishes themselves, Siete Ocho Siete's owners wanted to honor the tastes of the island's globe-hopping flavors. At their restaurant, chefs designed menus that highlight Puerto Rico's signature ingredients: the alcapurria's taro root and plantains arrive stuffed with seasoned ground beef, and the chillo entero al volante presents a whole red snapper filled with fragrant coconut rice. Meals arrive in an interior shot through with festive decor: the walls are brightly painted, umbrellas peek out of frosty cocktails, and tables dress up in freshly pressed white cloths. On some nights, the lilt of live musicians regales diners with mid-meal music, and a wave room with bay views supplies a romantic setting for dates or mermaids catching a meal between shifts.

Hand & Stone Massage and Facial Spa

As a physical therapist with his own private practice, John Marco made sure that he kept abreast of related industries-particularly massage therapy, where he observed especially rapid growth. As the spa industry continued to expand, he noticed that hardly any nationally recognized brands resulted from that growth. After a period of careful research and planning, John decided to fill that niche with a spa based around convenience and affordability-Hand & Stone Massage and Facial Spa.

Since its launch, Hand & Stone has expanded to more than 12 states and four planets. The spa's core concept is to offer massage, facial, and waxing services performed by licensed, certified, or registered professionals and offered at convenient times, seven days a week. Each location adheres to a traditional spa aesthetic with soft lighting, heated treatment tables, and plush linens.

Bliss & Care

The aestheticians at Bliss & Care erase signs of aging and protect skin from environmental damage with traditional spa services alongside laser-augmented treatments. Laser-assisted services include hair removal and acne-targeted therapies that use the heat of the elos IPL laser to blast acne-causing bacteria and reduce unsightly blemishes. Aestheticians customize facial treatments to address clients' individual skincare needs, from large pores to sagging skin, by mixing and matching skin-transforming agents such as seaweed, chemical peels, and lullabies sung in the complexion's mother tongue.

Sushi House of Hoboken

The master chefs at Sushi House of Hoboken garnered a 2008 Readers' Choice award from New Jersey Monthly for their flavorful sushi rolls and Japanese-style beef, chicken, and seafood. Diners can pull up seats to the open-air sushi bar, where culinary artisans prep edible care packages such as the red dragon roll, its eel and cucumber drizzled in kabayaki sauce. Thanks to the eatery's BYOB policy, dinner parties can sip personal potables as they share teriyaki beef or hand-feed pellets to the fish sculptures that dot the dining room. Alternatively, guests can feel free to dine on the restaurant's outdoor patio or order takeout to hone chopstick techniques in private.

Sitting for a digital photographer grants you immediate access to images, as opposed to waiting for a painter to outgrow his Cubist phase before you can recognize your own face. Snag convenient family portraits with this Groupon: for $25, you get a portrait package with the sitting fees waived, provided by Lifetouch Portraits and redeemable at any Target Portrait Studio (up to a $124.90 value). The package includes:

• One multi-image collage, 10"x13" or smaller
• Four traditional-colored portrait sheets, each of which is available as one 10"x13", one 8x10", two 5"x7"s, four 3.5"x5"s, or eight wallets (each sheet can be a different pose)
• One single-image enhanced portrait sheet in black and white or sepia, 10"x13" or smaller
• Standard sitting fees for all subjects in the photo shoot are waived
• 40% off additional portrait purchases

The professional photographers at Target Portrait Studios capture paramount moments in premier lighting with high-tech digital cameras and a choice of vivid background images. After clients discuss pose preferences with their portraitist, subjects take the stage for approximately 10 minutes of flashing bulbs, bright smiles, and focused lenses. Clients are welcome to bring props and shadow puppets from home, and after choosing a background, they can further customize each image with one of the studio's props, if desired.

After the last flash sparks, a member of the studio team helps freshly immortalized subjects peruse the session's digital daguerreotypes. Pose strikers select favorite images that then emerge from digital cocoons into beautiful print butterflies up to 10"x13" in size. Customers may take 40% off additional purchases of portrait sheets, collages, posters, or enlargements made that day. The discount cannot be applied toward reorders, studio events, media, services, featured products, or online orders. Prior to sessions, Target Portrait Studio offers up a host of helpful advice for getting the most out of your photography sessions, such as clothing suggestions, color coordination, and how much to tip light bulbs.

Though Target Portrait Studios sometimes feature a discounted price online, this Groupon still offers the best deal available.

Customers pick from the following six massage modalities: acupressure, aromatherapy, deep tissue, foot reflexology, hot-stone therapy, and Thai bomb therapy.

Enliven Body Works

A steamed ball glides along the spine, the herbs inside it shifting with its twists and turns. This is Thai bomb therapy, a traditional treatment of acupressure zones that can trace its current incarnation back to Wat Pho temple in Bangkok, and it's one of several eastern-influenced therapies available at Enliven Body Works. The rest of the services are more familiar-deep-tissue massage, waxing, and a lineup of eight facials. The attention to detail that allows aestheticians to customize each of these facials to the client's skin type extends to the spa itself; when not being used for a service or as a practice surfboard, treatment tables are decorated with a pyramid of rolled towels topped with a flower.

Swordfish, ahi tuna, and lobster headline the bill of seafood options, which arrive drizzled with savory sauces such as sambuca-infused dijonnaise and lemon-chardonnay cream. Turf-based dishes include the classic chicken parmesan and the 10-ounce filet mignon. A full bar proffers European draft beers and several signature martinis, and an extensive wine list includes tasting notes that make it easy to pair beverages with menu items and to cram for the wine quiz that's delivered with every dessert. Daytime patrons can nosh on lighter lunch fare⎯such as a surf ‘n' turf wrap or fish and chips⎯on the outside patio during the summer months, or drop in on a Friday night for live music and karaoke.

La Zarza

Flickering candles tucked into tiny caves garnish an exposed-brick wall or glimmer atop rich, dark wooden tables, spreading their glow onto a wall forged from rustic timber planks. This combination of soft lighting and contemporary-yet-pastoral decor fosters a sophisticated, Spanish-inspired ambiance inside La Zarza. But it's the eatery's menu of authentic Argentinean and Spanish cuisine made from indigenous recipes and organic ingredients that really transports diners to another country.

To bolster bites of tapas, fresh ceviche, and slow-cooked steaks-an Argentinean staple-live guitarists strum traditional Spanish tunes and reality show theme songs every Friday and Saturday. The soundtrack continues thumping further into the night when La Zarza morphs into an upscale lounge fueled by pulsing beats from international DJs. At full bars across two floors, bartenders regale revelers with mojitos, sangria, and signature cocktails amid chic furnishings, such as opulent chandeliers and crimson drapery.

On the pizzeria side, traditional New York-style or brick-oven-style pizzas, which rebel against convention by wearing their sauce on top of their cheese layer and getting tattoos, top cafe tables sans cloths.

Day-pass holders melt tension and stress within the balmy confines of Brooklyn Banya's three saunas and the sun-laden rooftop, achieving a constant calm and level of pruniness besting previous personal records. The steam room sends hydrating vapors deep into lungs while urging pores to expel impurities, and the combination of an icy pool and warm jacuzzi keeps temperature sensors on their toes. The spa is open until midnight daily, allowing guests to cast off the day's stresses after work or during sleepwalking sessions.

Optional honey-scrub massages are followed by a Vichy shower, which sends a tsunami of warm water over reclining patrons to summon maximum calm, the '80s hair band known for performing whale songs. Botox injections, meanwhile, take as little as 10 minutes and as many as 30, with staffers safely injecting 20 units of the purified protein into one area of the face to reduce wrinkles.

Botox may cause serious side effects that can be life threatening, including problems swallowing, speaking, or breathing. Read all safety considerations for Botox here.

Brooklyn Banya

Brooklyn Banya welcomes weary visitors into a relaxing Russian-Turkish bathhouse, where saunas, steam rooms, and pools soothe aching bodies and open pores. Patrons stow valuables in a locker and don flip-flops before moving between baths of different temperatures, which can increase circulation and help the immune system. The bathhouse's therapeutic jacuzzi bubbles with cozy heat, and ice baths chill sore muscles. Staff members perform body-bettering treatments such as salt scrubs, which leave skin smoother than a newborn pickpocket. The hamam's attached sun deck and cafe-serving fresh juice, black tea with honey, and authentic Russian fare-ensure that patrons leave calm, sated, and rejuvenated.

All-Inclusive Resort on the Caribbean Sea with Trapeze Lessons and Eclectic Dining

At Viva Wyndham Dominicus Beach, "all-inclusive resort" means much more than unlimited dinners and mai tais. Right in between the beach and the resort, you can learn how to trapeze at an open-air training facility surrounded by netting. Head up to the trapeze platform for a free lesson, and you can see the Caribbean Sea stretch out for miles right next to the resort's private, 5,000-foot stretch of pristine golden beach lined with palapas below.

The trapeze lesson is one of many ways the resort goes beyond the typical all-inclusive experience. When you're not relaxing at the beach, the all-inclusive plan frees you up to try a scuba-diving lesson, take yoga classes, climb a rock wall in the gym, or take in some live entertainment.

The beachfront resort is spread out like a small village, lined with flagstone pathways, landscaped gardens, three pools, and a shady coral stone grotto. At night, you can stop by the discotheque and dance to spicy meringue music, or head to the theater to enjoy a live performance of musicals such as Moulin Rouge or Cabaret. As the night winds down, stop for a midnight snack at the 24-hour pizzeria.

Guests can enjoy unlimited food and drinks from five restaurants and four bars, including La Terraza, a breakfast, lunch, and dinner spot that serves an international buffet. You can get a nice view of the sunset on the waterfront patio of La Roca Grill, which serves tropical cocktails and fried calamari.

Beachfront bungalows are located steps from the ocean, so guests can fall asleep to the sound of crashing waves and the squeals of dolphins watching horror films.

Bayahibe, Dominican Republic: Renowned Scuba Diving with White-Sand Beaches

Bayahibe is situated on the southeast coast of the Dominican Republic on the shore of the Caribbean Sea. The former fishing village remained relatively untouched by tourism until the late 1990s, when it became known for its white-sand beaches and scuba-diving sites, but it still has a tucked-away feel.

For diving and snorkeling, it's worth it to take a trip to Saona Island, an uninhabited nature reserve located just off the mainland. Tour operators on catamarans and motorboats will drop you around the area's sandbars and shipwrecks, which overflow with brightly colored fish.

About 20 miles (32 km) from the hotel, the cobblestone streets of Altos de Chavon are lined with artists' studios, galleries, and quaint cafes. The European-inspired village is also home to a 5,000-seat amphitheater, which has featured headlining shows from legendary artists including Frank Sinatra and Shakira.

Historical Inn with Glass-Enclosed Porch Overlooking Lake

In the 19th century, some of the Northeast's industrial pioneers- including Silas March, an entrepreneur and New York state assemblyman-spent their idle days in a clapboard estate built along the shores of Mariaville. In 2003, husband-and-wife innkeepers Rick and Lorrie Runnels purchased this historical home and dubbed it the Mariaville Lake Bed and Breakfast. Since then, they've made extensive renovations while managing to preserve the building's casual, Federal-style elegance; it still has its original moldings, wood-burning fireplaces, and hardwood floors in some of the guest rooms.

The building is tucked into a woodsy area along the private, 200-acre Mariaville Lake, and it's a prime spot to get in some fishing and swimming. The B&B also owns two kayaks, one canoe, and one rowboat, which are all available for guests. Or feel free to take a stroll through the wealth of hiking trails that crisscross the property; one in particular leads to a beaver dam. In summer and fall, you can tell ghost stories and dry your laundry over a crackling bonfire in the evening.

The inn's five guest rooms are individually decorated, but all look out to Mariaville Lake. You have to use an old-fashioned skeleton key to get into the Vineyard and Lakeview rooms, as they are located in the original part of the house.

Come morning, the innkeepers serve a breakfast by candlelight in the formal dining room or on the glass-enclosed porch. The chefs prepare a different hot entree each morning, such as banana-stuffed french toast, veggie frittatas, or puffed apple pancakes. You can typically find house-made pastries, fresh juices, yogurt, fresh fruit, coffee, and tea.

Mariaville, New York: Small Town on the Shores of Mariaville Lake

Mariaville is part of the 18th century town of Duanesburg, located about 30 miles west of Albany. Thanks to its location along the 200-acre Mariaville Lake, the town became a resort community in the 1920s. Not a whole lot has changed since then; there's still only one traffic light in the city to date, and every high-school class is taught by the mayor.

The town of Schenectady offers a dose of culture fewer than 15 miles east. Aside from shopping and restaurants, you can find the historical Proctors Theater, which opened as a vaudeville venue in the early 20th century but sank into disrepair by the late 1970s. A group of concerned citizens rallied to restore the theater, which now hosts regular performances of ballets, musicals, comedians, and concerts.

Since then, their artistic take on the fruit basket has become a popular way of both snacking and decorating, and their business has spread across the nation, much like the shadow cast by Godzilla as he crosses the ocean.

Urban Garden Center

Urban Garden Center has been repurposing city spaces for flora long before the Converse owners started turning their Chuck Taylors into flower boxes. The New York mainstay carries on a family legacy that has served the NYC gardening community for more than 50 years. As an "off the grid" business, the center relies on zero utilities to operate. What's more, with the help of a chattering of chickens, they maintain a community compost station, which diverts waste from the local marketplace and businesses in a much safer manner than launching it into lower orbit with a trebuchet.

On a mission to keep city-dwelling plant-scapes looking as vibrant and as impressive as their suburban cousins, the 20,000-square-foot facility outfits green-thumbed customers with eco-friendly soils, fertilizers, and plants. Urban Garden Center also passes its horticulture torch to future generations at its children's learning garden, where young'uns come to learn during classes, school trips, and parties. For extra assistance, or to ensure their rose beds don't end up as rose pullout couches, customers can collaborate with the center's garden gurus for design, maintenance, and installation services.

Hatha poses and Eastern philosophies guide the studio's teaching during classes such as yoga basics and power flow, which help yogis build enough strength, balance, and focus to rescue a bobcat from a sky-high redwood tree. Known as Modern Day Yoga, this system also informs her teacher trainings, in which students of all levels can become Yoga Alliance-certified yoga teachers or convincing Sting impersonators.

The OneStop crew is happy to host charity and fundraising events, leaving schools, clubs, and churches with 50% of the sales after the dust and dollar bills finally settle.

Utilized by presidential campaigns, national corporations, and students studying for college-entry exams, Speedlearning Institute's techniques aim to boost reading speeds and comprehension abilities by up to 300%. During each six-hour Speed Reading 101 session, instructors divulge the institute's guiding principles, designed to alleviate common reading snafus and the constant fear of being locked in a library overnight. Tutors enlighten students on such subjects as overlining, a speed-enhancing practice that involves directing eyes above words, and subvocalization, the concept of hearing written text mentally, which can impede one's reading pace. The informative seminar also discloses methods that, like meditating while chanting every name from grandma's high-school yearbook, can increase concentration and long-term memory skills by up to 95%.

All attendees receive an instructional manual and the institute's own RasterMaster laser pen, a tool designed to expand peripheral vision and bolster at-home speed-reading practice. Geared toward high-school students to help to prepare them for standardized tests and college-placement exams, this course also assists students in improving scores on graduate-level exams such as the LSAT and the GRE.

Historical Boutique Hotel in Thriving Downtown Arts District

"Oh, that's pretty," says a well-dressed guest who has recently arrived at Hotel Providence, nudging her companion and nodding at a large jade sculpture of galloping horses. "That's our centerpiece," the concierge chimes in. "From China. It's really rare." The horses are the most vibrant piece adorning the marble-floored lobby of this hotel, whose collection encompasses French steel engravings, centuries-old murals, and gilded Swedish mirrors.

And the building itself has as deep of a history as the artwork inside it: the building had turns as a college dormitory, a department store, and a grain silo before the turn of the 20th century, when it was repurposed to become a classic New England hotel.

There's a definite appreciation for art here; each guest room is decorated with local artwork ranging from paintings of city scenes to ceramic sculptures of fish. Each also comes with a continental armoire and wooden headboards. The junior and premier suites are fairly spacious-there are separate living rooms furnished with queen sofas if you need to sleep extra guests or add reinforcements to your pillow fort. Premier suites have added luxuries such as a whirlpool tub, a granite wet bar, and floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook the adjacent park and historical Grace Church.

Hotel Providence's Aspire Restaurant prepares New England-style cuisine such as clam chowder and jumbo lump crab cakes. Ingredients are sourced from local farms and the hotel's own rooftop garden. During warmer nights, you can dine in the restaurant's candlelit courtyard and enjoy selections from an international wine list.

Providence: Historical Haven Lined with Art Galleries, Restored Theaters, and Fine Dining

"The art scene is incredible here," raves Tricia Carter, Hotel Providence's marketing manager. "Every day there's something new." The active community support of the arts has helped to earn Providence its reputation as the "Creative Capital."

In an effort to rejuvenate the historical entertainment district here, the city partnered with its three universities and gave artists tax breaks to live downtown. You can now catch Broadway musicals and Tennessee Williams dramas at beautifully restored historical theaters from the 1920s such as the Providence Performing Arts Center and Trinity Repertory Theatre.

A short walk from Hotel Providence, you'll also find a vast network of downtown galleries; many of these feature the work of artists and graduates from the nearby Rhode Island School of Design.

The city's thriving food culture rivals the art scene in creativity and vigor; there's an enclave of Italian eateries on Federal Hill, and delis dot the downtown area. Many local chefs source their ingredients from farms bordering the city, which set up shop downtown on Fridays at the farmers' market. About 10 minutes south of downtown, the Culinary Arts Museum celebrates Providence's love of food with more than 250,000 artifacts, ranging from antique cooking gadgets to elaborate wedding cakes.

Weeklong Journey Through Morocco's Medinas, Kasbahs, and Desert Wilderness

The Strait of Gibraltar separates Morocco and Spain, and they're only about 8 miles apart at the narrowest point. Cross that stretch of water, though, and there's a striking shift in culture and climate. Scattered throughout the Moroccan desert landscape, there are medinas-old town squares surrounded by medieval walls. Within these ancient Islamic fortresses, you'll typically find winding streets with open-air markets that brim with colorful clothing, woodwork, and sweet-smelling cuisine.

During an eight-day guided tour, G Adventures will lead you from Casablanca to Marrakech to show how Morocco's rich history and traditions intermingle with modernity. Along with a group of 10-15 people, a "Chief Experience Officer" will lead each trek and encourage the group to try new things to get an understanding of the Moroccan culture. Breakfast is included each day, as are hotel accommodations with one roommate from your group, but airfare is not.

View the full itinerary here.

Day 1: Upon arrival in Casablanca, you'll meet for a powwow with your tour group at the hotel. There, you'll make introductions and go over logistics before heading out for dinner at a local restaurant.

Day 2: After breakfast, you and your compadres will pile into an air-conditioned van for the four-hour drive to Meknes. You'll take a guided tour of its medina, which was once ruled by Moulay Ismail. Artifacts from his reign still remain intact, including an ingenious granary and stable that accommodated the sultan's legendary 12,000 horses and their swimming pools filled with delicious oats.

A 45-minute ride north soon lands at Volubilis, an ancient skeleton of a Roman town complete with bathhouses and pillars that have stood for nearly 2,000 years. The day then winds down with a two-hour drive into Fez, another medieval town that, in the 11th century, was the largest city in the known world.

Day 3: A half-day guided walking tour of Fez's vibrant medina kicks off day 3. Here, you'll have a chance to browse traditional Moroccan souks, or bazaars, which overflow with everything from fresh produce and spices to handmade brass, wood, and copper goods. The rest of the day is set aside for you to explore this exotic city as you see fit.

Day 4: During a 10-hour drive across the Atlas Mountains, city scenes transform into desert. The first stop is Merzouga, a gateway town to the Sahara. Here, you'll condense your luggage into a single pack and trek out into the desert wilderness on camelback. As dusk falls, the group gathers at a Bedouin-style tent camp to sleep under a dazzling canopy of stars.

Day 5: Today, your tour troupe will rise at dawn and hike back to Merzouga as the sun rises. Later in the afternoon, you'll take a hike through Todra Gorge, which has spectacular sheer-walled canyons, before heading to a local palm-tree farm.

Day 6: Ait Benhaddou is one of the Morocco's best-preserved kasbahs, and it's the groups next stop after a drive through the Atlas foothills. You'll also make an early lunch stop in the town of Ouarzazate, which served as the shooting location of several Hollywood films, including Lawrence of Arabia and Gladiator.

Days 7-8: After emerging from the mountainous Tizi n'Tichka Pass, take the day to explore Marrakech's famous Djemaa el Fna square, where you can bargain on anything from lanterns to sheep's heads. Before the end of your tour on day eight, it's worth it to check out Marrakech's resplendent Koutoubia palace, the Saadina tombs, or see what else the city's been up to since its founding in 1062.

Affiliated with the American Naturopathic Medical Association and the American Alternative Medical Association, Wojciech Konior, ND, TNC, launched Natural Medicine Center to help those interested in pharmaceutical-free healing. Believing that all illness results from imbalances within the body, Dr. Konior performs alternative diagnostics, such as hair-tissue-mineral analysis and timing how long it takes patients to build a ship in a bottle, to identify the source of maladies. Recommended care may integrate a range of treatment approaches, ranging from dietary changes and supplements to exercise and detoxification therapy. Dr. Konior can also help arrange care with a network of other practitioners, such as massage therapists, chiropractors, and acupuncturists.

• $279 for three Cavi-Lipo treatments (a $900 value)

During 30-minute ultrasound-cavitation treatments, a technician traces the Cavi-Lipo hand piece over one problem area, such as the belly, thighs, or hips, per session. The device's ultrasonic energy helps to break down lumpy cellulite structures and disrupt the membranes of subcutaneous fat cells, causing them to release their contents into the body and shrink. The contents are flushed away via the lymphatic system or burned for energy. The clinic experts recommend four to seven treatments twice weekly for optimal results.

Soma Medical Spa

Board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon Dr. Daniel Kaufman melds an impeccable artistic eye with precise technical skills, leading Soma Medical Spa's staff in turning back Mother Nature's clock with cosmetic surgeries and med-spa treatments. Clients in search of nonsurgical solutions to their skincare needs can hop into the office's Visia Complexion Analysis, which peers into the topical and subsurface layers of the skin, exposing UV damage and pore depth before serving up a personalized skin-youthifying blueprint. A course of medical-grade chemical peels, microdermabrasions, or injectables can leave complexions radiating with reclaimed vigor, which can be maintained at home with skincare products from brands including EltaMD, SkinCeuticals, and Yonka. Clients looking for more dramatic results can explore the doctor's surgical options, which can transform necks, noses, and brows into stunningly youthful-and often undetectably natural-versions of their former selves.

Each class rotates through a four-week cycle; students can enter All Level classes at any time, and specific levels during the first two weeks of the cycle.

Paul Pellicoro's DanceSport

Choreographing the much-beloved tango scene in Scent of a Woman is a shining point on anyone's resume. For Paul Pellicoro, it is one of many distinctions awarded to him and his staff of professional dance instructors at DanceSport, the go-to studio for Latin and ballroom dance. Their choreography and performance work has graced the diverse sound and theater stages of The Today Show, A River Runs Through It, and the Harlem Jazz Dance Festival, among many others, while their lessons have benefited Chris Cuomo and Good Morning America anchors Diane Sawyer and Robin Roberts.

Rousing group classes take place across nine air-conditioned studios, each one outfitted with a wood-sprung floor carved from an oak tree wearing a tutu. Whether leading these sessions, helping couples prepare their wedding dance, or contributing to charitable causes such as Gilda's Club, Big Brothers Big Sisters, or Night For Niños, DanceSport's sure-footed staff flourishes with skill, patience, and compassion.

Each Groupon can be used among multiple children over any number of visits; additional siblings can play for a fee of $8.95 per child.

Pump It Up

Inside Pump It Up's 12,000-square-foot facility, sock-clad feet scamper across custom-designed inflatable play structures, slides, and obstacle courses while an attentive staff supervises. On Jump-N-Art days, kids can follow open-bouncing sessions with arts-and-crafts projects, and vibrant neon lights illuminate the dimmed facility during glow parties. An onsite party room hosts bouncers and their parents, who refuel with pizza, soda, and juice for an additional fee. The center also supplies up to 25 children or 250 life-size Hannah Montana cutouts with private party packages, which grant guests exclusive access to the facility along with catering, cake, and goody bags.

Medical Aesthetics of Red Bank

Before a client undergoes any of Medical Aesthetics of Red Bank's FDA-approved med-spa procedures, a physician meets with them for a complimentary consultation. This helps the staff tailor the spa's beauty services to each client because unlike one-size fits all Viking helmets, cosmetic treatments should take into account a person's skin sensitivities and skin type. After the consultation, the doctor-or aestheticians and laser technicians supervised by the doctor-get to work injecting facial fillers or Botox, or removing hair or veins with lasers.

Though Island Paintball sometimes features a discounted price online, this Groupon still offers the best deal available.

Island Paintball

High-school social studies teacher Anthony Pennino Sr. played his first round of paintball in 1985. By the following year Tony had gathered 20-30 friends and kin for paintball bouts on his family's private land. As demand for paintball guns and safety gear grew among his brigade of marksmen, he converted his basement into a makeshift store, supplying paintball accouterments from home until moving into a storefront in 1990. Within two decades Tony and his clan formed the lauded paintball team the New York Dogs, opened their own indoor arena, and eventually combined that arena with their largest store yet.

That facility forms the backbone of Island Paintball, where two sports turf fields host Model 98-brandishing players. In between games, players can watch other contests from behind the staging area's plexiglass viewing windows or browse Island Paintball Supplies' gun wall and 12 massive showcases of paintball gear. An in-house gunsmith repairs any malfunctioning guns, which patrons can wield at open-play sessions, private parties, or on the targets strung up in the booths of Island Paintball's mobile target trailer.

In sessions that range from a few minutes to 30 minutes, certified laser technicians operate the Soprano XL, annihilating hair at the follicle with technology that causes minimal discomfort. Rio Aesthetics Center's laser techs recommend six treatments to thoroughly clear the desired area.

Rio Aesthetics Center

Located within the Radisson hotel, Rio Aesthetics Center specializes cosmetic laser services, massages, and facials. Experienced technicians utilize the Alma Laser Soprano XL, which boasts a rapid and virtually painless IN-Motion feature that removes unwanted hair on all skin types, including tanned or spandex. Other members of the cosmically talented Alma Laser family also play prominent roles in the spa's aesthetic lineup, including the Laser360, which is designed to stimulate collagen growth and elasticity and combat signs of aging. Staffers also incorporate laser technology into facials such as the Hydra Lift, which combines a radiofrequency laser with microdermabrasion or a professional peel.

In addition to English, the multilingual staff speaks Portuguese, Spanish, and Italian, creating a worldly vibe amplified by Brazilian-style decor and a receptionist fluent in Vulcan. Potted palms and paper lanterns lend an air of relaxation to vibrant tomato-red massage rooms, and lobby track lighting illuminates shelves stocked with quality take-home products from brands such as glo therapeutics.

$149 for an In-Office Zoom! Teeth-Whitening Treatment ($450 Value)

After examining your smile, the dental staff applies Zoom! bleaching gel to teeth and activates the whitening process with specially designed LED Lights. Sessions take up to one hour to complete and can leave your teeth several shades brighter.

Jersey Smiles

Though he seems quite at home among the advanced tools at his Jersey Smiles dental office, Dr. Shankar Iyer is no stranger to the world outside. The jet-setting dentist has made a name for himself as an international speaker, having lectured on subjects such as implant and prosthetic dentistry across Europe, South America, and Asia.

When he isn't publishing peer-reviewed articles or patiently autographing tooth fairies' prized collections, Dr. Iyer joins Drs. Preeti Iyer and Devika Bhola-as well as a dedicated staff of dental assistants-at his offices in Elizabeth and Jersey City. Together, the three dentists clean and correct smiles with treatments that encompass the many subsets of their field, from dental implants to prosthodontics and smile design. Their collective expertise has not gone unnoticed by former and current patients, many of whom will testify to the staff's "professionalism and humane attitude" in devising gentle treatments to correct chipped teeth, brighten stained enamel, and silence the trills of swallowed harmonicas.

Baum Advanced Chiropractic

While most people deal with the symptoms of a migraine headache by downing ibuprofen and retreating to a dark, quiet room, Jason Baum, a doctor of chiropractic since 2006, instead tries to tackle the causes of the pain. To pinpoint the body's "hot spots" and approximate its glow-stick content, he guides each new patient through thermal imaging, a physical exam, and x-rays.

During 30-minute Lipo-Light treatments, panels equipped with red LED light rest atop problem areas, such as the abs, thighs, and love handles. The LED light penetrates down to the subcutaneous fat cells, where it disrupts their membranes, causing them to release their contents into the body. The body then flushes away the contents via the lymphatic system or burns them for energy. The light can also increase collagen and elastin to tighten the skin.

$65 for a Tuxedo Rental ($180 Value)

With each tuxedo rental, customers get a one-button black notch coat, a matching pair of trousers, a dress shirt, a tie, a cummerbund, and shoes.

Top Hat & Tails

Customers may walk into Top Hat & Tails as mere men, wearing jeans that sag off the waistline or scuff against the floor. But they leave as gentlemen, sporting fine men's clothing and formalwear tailored to a T. Co-owners Brian Berry and Horace Kinard-who has been haberdashering for 20 years-take measurements onsite and alter in-house to drape dapper gents in fine suits, ties, tuxes, custom shirts, and shoes. A seasonally rotating catalog of styles from Calvin Klein, Joseph Abboud, and Oscar de la Renta elevates the elegance of invitees to weddings, dances, or black-tie balls. As Berry told Maplewood Patch last year, "We've had everything from Sweet Sixteens to every other formal event you can think of," including musicians from the Philharmonic, who presumably came in to replace their glockenspiel's torn cummerbund.

Global Boarding

"There is this amazing energy out on the water; you get a chance to ride Mother Nature. It doesn't cost anything, and there is always a freshness to it." When Global Boarding's founder Robb Reid describes his profession, it's hard to believe he has been at it for more than a quarter of a century. Mr. Reid remains as passionate as when he first discovered surfing as a young boy. "It has always brought me happiness," he says.

As a professional wakeboarder and coach, Mr. Reid's dedication took him across the globe. He traveled to the beaches of Central America and learned to do everything upside down in Australia. Despite each country's beauty, it wasn't until Mr. Reid and his wife found the clear waters and nature preserves of Sag Harbor that they knew they had found what they were looking for: a home. In 2001, Global Boarding was born.

Along with a team of ARC-certified professionals, Mr. Reid keeps his clients from surfing in the bathtub May through September of each year. Their fleet of boats can pull water gear such as tubes, wakeboards, and water skis. In Global Boarding's kids' surf program, Mr. Reid uses wake surfing as a transitional tool to teach new surfers how to find balance atop the ocean's natural playgrounds.

Studio Art

Studio Art supplies the media and the instruction for customizing everything from canvases and pottery to skateboards and sneakers. During birthday parties, afterschool programs, and camps, artists transform everyday objects into one-of-a-kind works of art.

Classes hone specific skills such as sewing and fashion design, and teen night occupies adolescents with henna, beading, and scrapbooking in an informal setting.

After an initial consultation and x-ray, the dental team takes impressions of teeth and, in tandem with 3-D computer imaging technology, crafts a set of custom-fit aligners.

Treatment, available for teenagers and adults, can last anywhere from 9 months to 2 years, depending on the patient.

Beaute des Arts

A New York native, Dr. Luis Cenedese received his M.D. Ph D. from SUNY Downstate Medical Center before his interest in plastic surgery really took off. He shifted his career to both reconstructive and cosmetic plastic surgery after caring for burn victims and children with congenital defects during his residency at Beth Israel Medical Center.

These teachers show combatants how to restrain each other with leg grappling, joint locks, and chokeholds, teaching them how to use a combination of anatomical knowledge and strength to overwhelm an opponent. During high-speed kickboxing workouts, they'll get hearts slamming against rib cages and feet and fists slamming into punching bags.

East Coast United BJJ & MMA

When JoJo Guarin isn't taking down expert fighters twice his size in invitation-only professional grappling tournaments, he's designing the curriculum at East Coast United BJJ & MMA. A swimmer before he was a fighter, Guarin advocates the use of cross-training as the primary method of getting his students in shape. This leaves him and his instructors time to focus purely on technique in Braziliain jujitsu, kickboxing, and mixed-martial-arts classes. The team sets up the schedule to provide specific times for beginners to practice, welcoming men, women, children, and teenaged turtles of all skill levels into their training sessions. When the combative fire in students' veins flickers out, exercisers can center themselves and increase their flexibility under the tutelage of certified YogaFit instructor Jessica Mondello.

Island Current Fleet

Each vessel in Island Current's four-boat fleet ferries 21-110 passengers across the fish-filled waters of Long Island Sound and Snug Harbor. Fishing charters reel in catches such as blackfish, ling, and cod, and sightseeing tours fill eyes with up-close views of the Statue of Liberty and other landmarks. After each schooner sets sail from City Island at Jack's Bait & Tackle, fleet owner Captain Chris comes on deck to share his angling expertise and introduce first-time fishermen to knowledgeable local mermaids.

The New Jersey Children's Museum immerses its visitors in more than 30 interactive exhibits that encourage hands-on exploration and learning, a philosophy that helped the facility secure a place within (201) Magazine's Best of Bergen 2011 series. Adventure intertwines with education within the dinosaur cave, where kids can make cave drawings or dig up fossils of prehistoric sports mascots. Heads turn as flashing lights and the warning cries of an approaching locomotive fill the air at the giant train set, and news stories break at the television studio. In addition to its many curiosity-inducing zones, the award-winning facility also hosts birthday parties with themes such as fire trucks, princesses, and dinosaurs.

Sportations

Sportations connects amateur adrenaline jockeys to certified professional adventurers, drawing from a nationwide network of aeronauts and speed demons to introduce habitual pedestrians to the wonders of skydiving, ballooning, hang gliding, and stock-car racing. Thrill seekers can zipline across a forest canopy, hollering like Tarzan or taunting nearby birds until they agree to race. Helicopter tours ferry patrons skyward over landmarks and cityscapes, whereas paragliding adventures get up close and personal with blue skies and clouds. For most sports, Sportations accommodates groups of any size, from physics classes empirically proving gravity's existence to solo ballooning supervillains declaring dominion over all they see.

Students use breath to support the long, flowing movements of Pilates exercise, reinforcing their limbs with lean muscle within a safe range of motion for low-impact, core-strengthening exercises. In barre classes, bodies bend and stretch in a workout that combines ballet, aerobic motions, and Pilates into a single workout. Instructors pick up the pace with tower machines, which strengthen weaker, undeveloped parts of the body overlooked by other workouts, and cardiolates to blend Pilates movements with heart-pumping exercises. Reformer machines-another form of equipment developed specifically to enhance Pilates-employ a clever system of pulleys and straps centered on a gliding platform. In private lessons, teachers cobble together any combination of contraptions they feel most benefits their charges, providing a comprehensive education on Pilates' function, terminology, and history, including a lesson on the day Joseph Pilates tore the Liberty Bell in two with his abs.

Pilates of New Jersey

Daily stresses in life, injury, and pregnancy strain the body's joints, and it's the job of exercise to strengthen muscles, easing the strain and supporting the skeletal system. That was the idea that led Joseph Pilates to create his signature method, performed at Pilates of New Jersey. Five certified instructors-one a physical therapist experienced in physical rehabilitation-teach students the ins and outs of Pilates' various machines and maneuvers. Along the way, they discuss the rationale behind each movement, handing out tips on how to move safely without wasting energy or how to safely tickle strangers' cats.

Glowing hardwood floors support rows of reformers, towers, and exercise balls, all used to enhance the intensity of Pilates motions. Crimson walls fortify the studio, the color echoed in every piece of Pilates equipment within the clean, newly outfitted space.

Groups of up to 20 students meet for a high-intensity interval-training program or a muscle-building regimen using just about anything but weights. Metabolic classes use short bursts of intense cardio, such as the Tabata method, to crank up metabolisms and burn calories long after the workout has ended. Strongman conditioning builds muscle mass by pushing clients to lift, swing, and haul sandbags, kettlebells, battling ropes, a heavy chain, sled, and every Emmy Award won by Frasier.

Further Fitness

Further Fitness trainers Jamie Dreyer and Maribel Torres have made it their mission to "dispel . . . myths and old-wives tales" about fitness. Inspired by their backgrounds in youth sports, exercise-science studies, and a chance encounter with fitness godfather Jack LaLanne, they have created an effective, challenging, and exciting program focused on the fundamentals of boosting metabolisms and muscle mass. Their stripped-down studio builds bodies with simple tools, such as kettlebells, battling ropes, and sandbags. To stimulate the cardiovascular system, Jamie and Maribel might have students haul a weight sled and pull in equal amounts of physiology and anatomy knowledge. Sessions are held in semiprivate and group settings, and an athletic-strength program devotes itself exclusively to training high-school-level athletes and any toddlers that can run a decent 40-yard dash or live in the requisite angst in which high schoolers often live.

The staff is so fond of its four-legged instructors that each one gets its own page on the website. Guests can meet Isiah, the Percheron gelding whose long white eyelashes will steal your heart, or RJ Rabbit, the 10-year-old quarter pony who fancies himself the barn clown. These introductions are engaging, but riders won't really know the team until they visit the picturesque facility, where an indoor arena and four outdoor riding rings sit flanked by lush trees and rugged trails. In this setting, teachers call on their competition experience to instill students with the skills to handle horses in the english, western, dressage, or driving disciplines. For seasoned riders or unkempt centaurs, the equestrian specialists also offer boarding services with custom feeding programs, ample turnout, and regular stall cleaning.

Splash Zone

Arms folded across her chest, the young girl rides a spouting cascade of water through the pitch-black tube, squealing with each twist and turn afforded by the snaking confines. Just as it seems as though the darkness will never lift, sunlight pours onto her face as she is spit out into a crystal-blue pool below. This high-adrenaline ride is the reward for being brave enough to tackle the Midnight Run, one of Splash Zone's numerous waterslides.

Nestled in the heart of Wildwood, the aquatic adventureland evokes whoops and squeals from visitors of all ages with more than 16 splash-laden rides and activities. The gentle ebb of Rivy's River carries inner-tubing guests along at a relaxed pace, and the interactive water playground in Giggle Bay ensures that the young adventurers remain hydrated thanks to a constantly tipping bucket filled with 1,000 gallons of water. As aquanauts explore the waters, Splash Zone's crew of certified lifeguards and sunglass-clad Saint Bernards remain on hand to ensure safety, and an onsite first-aid station offers remedies for a variety of ailments. Along with watery pastimes, Splash Zone offers sunbathing areas to facilitate leisurely tanning, and the Zone Grill where chefs forge fire-licked eats for hungry guests.

Acupuncture uses tiny needles to redirect the body's energy, which is a better use for needles than sewing yourself into a sleeping bag forever. Feel better with this Groupon.

Choose Between Two Options

• $49 for a consultation and acupuncture session (a $120 value)
• $75 for a consultation and two acupuncture sessions (a $195 value)

On the first visit, clients arrive in loose, comfortable clothing and discuss their medical history and personal ailments with acupuncturist Shu-Chin Hwang. Hwang then places needles throughout the body according to her diagnosis, leaving them in for 30-45 minutes as clients relax in the treatment room.

Acupuncture 4 Your Health

Behind the walls of a stately brick building, Shu-Chin Hwang helps restore bodies to prime working condition through acupuncture, a holistic healing practice backed by the World Health Organization and National Institute of Health. A facet of ancient Chinese medicine, acupuncture attributes ailments to blockages in the body's natural energy, also know as chi. Based on the client's personal malady, Hwang decisively inserts needles in critical healing areas, encouraging the body to cure itself without having to eat another Chicken Soup for the Soul book. Many of the programs at Acupuncture 4 Your Health are packaged to address specific health needs such as weight loss, smoking addiction, and insomnia, all of which use strategic acupuncture treatments and a special blend of Chinese herbs.

Without the applause of an audience, actors have no way of knowing how well they've died. Stand and ovate with this GrouponLive deal to see Freud's Last Session at New World Stages. For $34, you get one ticket for orchestra or center-mezzanine seating (up to a $66.50 value). Tickets are good for any Saturday matinee or Sunday-Monday performance from May 24 through June 17. Students with ID are regularly admitted for $23.

Winner of the Off Broadway Alliance's award for Best New Play of 2011, Freud's Last Session imagines a meeting in the looming shadow of World War II between the aging atheist and an up-and-coming Christian thinker by the name of C.S. Lewis. The doctor invites Lewis for a chat at his London home, where the young author expects to be taken to task for his satirical treatment of Freud, but instead the pair trades witty interpretations of life, love, God, and the secret of solving a 7-10 split. As these weighty topics bounce between the legendary minds, Freud, painfully and secretly dying of cancer, contemplates the virtues of suicide.

The original off-Broadway actors Mark H. Dold and Martin Rayner return to portray Lewis and Freud, weaving intriguing thoughts and arguments from the bare minimum of material-two minds, two viewpoints, and lots and lots of mahogany furniture. The New York Times called the play "a sharp, lively discourse," and the initial run has attracted the attention of such eminent persons as Woody Allen. New World Stages' blue-tinted interior and exposed air vents create an avant-garde atmosphere for innovative off-Broadway theater. The thirsty can stop by the TimeOut New York Lounge to pick up a cocktail or cocktail glass full of olives to enjoy during the show.

If Dorothy had never changed the Tin Man's oil, the Wizard probably would have just thrown away his spare heart. Show your car you have a heart with this Groupon.

Choose from Three Options

• $15 for a full-service oil change, which includes a multi-point inspection and tire rotation (a $29.99 value)
• $29 for the above full-service oil change and a NY State inspection (a $66.99 value)
• $59 for three of the above full-service oil changes and one NY State inspection (a $126.97 value)

During each 30-minute service, an ASE-certified technician refills engines with up to 5 quarts of standard Mobil 1 motor oil before performing a thorough safety inspection and rotating tires to promote even tread wear. Technicians pore over multiple vehicle systems in accordance with state law-including the seatbelts, brakes, and tires-and give passing vehicles a certificate. Oil change and state inspections do not need to be performed on the same day.

Family Auto Service

The steel-and-rotor specialists at Family Auto Service care for the region's roadsters from one of Nassau County's largest auto-repair shops. Drawing on more than 34 years of experience, owner Steve Rozansky supervises and shares tips with his ASE-certified staff as they repair engines, align wheels, and correct faulty electronics. The team boosts vehicles' self-esteem with detailing services and rent out U-Hauls to give introverted Acuras a quiet place to read.
