This 24-hour infrared fitness studio provides gym members with access to a variety of virtually instructed infrared sauna workouts. The core experience centers on exercising within private infrared saunas, which members describe as adding a unique, detoxifying twist that is a game-changer for both body and mind. The combination of infrared heat and exercise creates a challenging yet beneficial session. The sauna facilities are noted for being clean. While a cold plunge is not mentioned, the focused infrared sauna workout is the primary wellness offering. Beyond the sauna, the gym offers a range of virtually led sessions including 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 venue also features a functional exercise area with free weights, suitable for independent weight sessions. The atmosphere is consistently praised as friendly, welcoming, and positive, with a supportive community that accommodates both introverts and extroverts. Staff, particularly manager Broc, receive high acclaim for being genuine, professional, and for fostering a comfortable, family-like environment that helps members feel confident. The gym is clean, with plenty of parking and a convenient location. The 24/7 session availability allows members to build workouts around any schedule. Some members note the virtual instruction format is ideal for those who prefer to work out alone with minimal direct interaction, though one member mentioned visibility issues with the video screen height during Hot Pilates.
