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!

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!

Front desk definitely needs training. No one knows how to sign up Renew Active clients. The website…read moreclearly shows Renew Active can enroll at the gym, with a 9 digit number (vs a 16 digit for the Silver Sneakers option) yet the front desk employees insisted I HAD TO HAVE a 16 digit number, so I guess I'll be choosing a different gym til they can figure it out. The "eligibility checker" they use goes directly to Silver Sneakers (a totally different program). If you have Renew Active don't bother trying.

For starters, the space itself is warm, bright and gorgeous. They've got two studios (the second is relatively new) a small communal space and a deck that wraps around the back and looks out into the trees. I can't wait for the weather to warm up so I can finish my next visit with tea and conversation out there. The studio offers plenty of parking, lots of class options for all levels and even spa services (which I have yet to try but I'll have to splurge on a massage some time... you know.... to fulfill my duties as a responsible reviewer.... ). My instructor was awesome - guiding us through a challenging 90-minute session, but never taking things *too* seriously (I like that we can all admit that Warrior 3 is really freaking hard sometimes or get a good giggle out of Happy Baby). Like I said, I just got home and I'm already planning my return. It's a bit off the beaten path, but so worth the adventure. When you consider that it's only $15 to drop-in, and you leave feeling like you've just had a full body (and mind) massage? It's a steal :)
