HOTWORX - Fort Worth, TX - Westcliff

📍 3548 S Hills Ave, Fort Worth, Texas, 76109

This 24-hour infrared fitness studio provides members with access to a variety of virtually instructed infrared sauna workouts. The core experience revolves around performing exercises within private infrared sauna rooms, which members describe as a low-impact alternative to traditional gym workouts. The heat and infrared energy are integral to the workout sessions, which include 15-minute High-Intensity Interval Training and 30-minute isometric workouts such as Hot Pilates, Hot Yoga, Hot Barre, Hot Core, Hot Cycle, and Hot Blast. The studio is noted for being kept very clean during staffed hours. Members appreciate the unlimited 24/7 access, which allows for flexible scheduling at their own convenience, contributing to both physical and mental well-being. The atmosphere is generally described as great, with a pleasant scent noted. However, the business model receives mixed feedback. Some members find the membership terms and cancellation policy initially confusing, though staff are available to clarify. A notable point of contention is the required purchase of proprietary mats and towels, which members report can cost around $100 as a startup fee; these are described as high-quality to withstand the sauna heat but are seen as expensive compared to retail alternatives. The booking process for sauna sessions is also mentioned as being time-consuming. Staff reception varies, with many members finding them friendly and helpful, especially during registration, while others report negative interactions with management.
