When my friend invited me to a new Hot Yoga place in the area I figured why not?! When you first pull up to the building, there is not a huge sign that lets you know that you have arrived, however, on their door they have their logo and name. You enter through the back and we were greeted by some really nice staff who helped us sign our waivers and get everything in order. Once you have checked in/paid, you then go to the next little room where you drop off your belongings, take off your shoes, and grab a mat. You then go into the third room where the Hot Yoga takes place. The room is around the 100 degree mark and is pretty small. You can tell that they have recently painted and are still getting some things in order (ceilings looked a little rough and not painted yet) but overall everything was set up nicely. The instructors clearly know what they are doing and walked around and gave helpful hints and tips as you were going along the different positions. She made it not only relaxing but also fun. I would highly recommend this facility and my friend and I plan to make it a weekly class!

Fidel is a healer, and his hands-on adjustments were the best I've ever had- lengthening my stretch and supporting the posture. The beautiful alchemy of music and movement transported my practice.

The class begins at 7am at the Tennessee Beach Access and lasts 1 hour. Caroline was warm, welcoming and made the practice good for all levels. She focused on our breath, gentle poses and our beautiful surroundings. Overlooking the sun rising over the ocean was so peaceful and rejuvenating as the waves crash on the beach. Also, it was cool to have the sand move under your towel. It actually cradled your body and hands in poses that was really great. Some of the flow movements were trickier with the sand but doable. I wished I had done this class earlier in the summer as they will not offer it during the colder months. I'll be checking out their other classes!

But without access to a pool at the rental home we were in and with a gym rat pair of teens, we needed an option nearby that would give everyone what they needed. Both indoor and outdoor pools were excellent. Thanks to Sports Center for offering such an option. Avoid immediate after school hours if you are looking for outdoor swim time. Lots of teens there for swim team so much of the pool is taken. Also should be avoided at that time during the school year because the traffic is a DISASTER en route due to two schools letting out at exactly the same time. It was a mess.
