What six Equinox moms have on their wishlist
In honor of Mother’s Day, we asked Equinox moms—corporate employees, group fitness instructors, and personal trainers—what they’d most like to receive this year. Self-care experiences are prevalent on the list, which also includes a chic Apple watch band and a Hypervolt.
Here, their picks:
sundays 2 in 1 Meditation + Manicure
“I am in love with the manicures and pedicures at sundays. They have a guided meditation manicure—talk about efficiency. If Ruby, my three-year-old, is being sweet that day, she can come with. Sundays does an amazing kids mani/pedi too. It’s our favorite activity.”
—Liz Miersch, VP, partnerships & content in New York City
Apple 40mm Gold Milanese Loop
“I’m a mom to Bella (16) and Ava (13). I would love this Apple watch band for Mother’s Day. Gold has made a resurgence and I would like to be able to dress up my watch with my workwear.
—Amy Dixon, director of group fitness programming in Beverly Hills, California
CALPAK Packing Cubes 5-Piece Set
“We are constantly on-the-go and I recently picked up packing cubes for my son HHH (Hudson Huck Heckman), who is one and a half. Now, I am so jealous of how organized he is. I want some chic ones for myself.”
—Ashley Heckman, creative director at Furthermore in New York City
Equinox Spa Micro-Dermabrasion Facial Treatment
“I have two kids, Sofia, 11, and G, ten. This Mother’s Day, I would love a micro-dermabrasion facial at Equinox. It’s so relaxing and you get the best glow. I sweat and work hard all week, so it’s nice to get some me time and look great after.”
—Jen Tsiolis, Long Island, New York–based group fitness instructor
Hypervolt Vibration Massage Device
“I have two kids, an eight-year-old daughter and a 15-year-old son. It’s quite hard to get in personal time, since I either have to entertain the kids or play tag with my husband when it comes to fitting in my workouts or massages while running around New York City. For Mother’s Day this year, I would love a Hypervolt. Selfishly, I know it will improve my performance and recovery without sacrificing family time. Maybe I will share. Everyone wins.”
—Mary Onyango, group fitness manager at Brooklyn Heights in New York City
Bill Amberg Studio Papoose
“I’m a new mommy to Tali Miriam, who is seven months old. I know I’m off-season, but there’s nothing better than walking around with my baby lying close to my heart—well, except the opportunity to do it in shearling. I’ve been eyeing this all winter and I think Mother’s Day might be my opportunity to score this for fall.”
—Jill Brand, senior director, marketing in New York City
