The school offers a program of sports, social and cultural activities.

The Big Apple is the uncontested capital of Jazz and Hall Music, welcoming artistic creations among the most prestigious and innovative in the world.

Some even have their own district, like Little Italy, China Town or Spanish Harlem: all worth a visit. To get away from the urban atmosphere, there’s nothing better than going to the centre, to the lungs of New York: Central Park. Here, you can stroll around the forest, forget that you’re in the city, have a siesta by the lake, enjoy just about any sport, visit places of high culture like the Metropolitan Museum, or simply wander through one of the most beautiful and surprising parks in the world! One thing’s for sure, you won’t get bored in New York.
