From the reviews

Alexyss is seriously the best! She always pushes me in the best way — super encouraging and motivating without ever making it feel too intense. I often surprise myself on what I’m able to do in her classes. Her classes are the perfect mix of challenging and fun, and I always leave feeling accomplished and energized.

Alexys is the absolute best instructor for Pilates I’ve ever taken. She’s very knowledgeable and also her vibes are amazing. She always makes my workout fun. She’s helped me advance from beginner to intermediate classes within a matter of a couple of months. She is AMAZING!!!! 10/10 recommendations.

Your first hot yoga class at Circus Studios

Nervous about your first hot class? Almost everyone is, and a good studio expects beginners to walk in the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: the room is heated, so it feels intense for the first few minutes — rest in child's pose any time you need to, no one will bat an eye. Hydrate: drink water through the day before class, not just as you arrive, and bring a bottle. What to bring: a mat and towel, water, and a change of clothes; wear something light you don't mind sweating through, and skip a heavy meal in the couple of hours beforehand. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign in and set up. It gets easier fast — most people say their third class feels completely different from their first.

Heat and intense exercise aren't right for everyone — if you're pregnant or have heart, blood-pressure, or other health concerns, check with a doctor before your first hot class.
