Our purpose

To make strength feel good —

and make it last.

Ava founded Hot Works after years of teaching in studios where people were rushed through classes and left guessing. She wanted somewhere different: small classes, real coaching, and a warm room that helps every body move a little better.

Today that’s still the whole point. We’re here to help New York get stronger from the core out, and to make it the hour people look forward to all week.

Heat with purpose

The warm room is there to help you move better and recover faster, not to make class harder for the sake of it.
