The Foundry: Hot Yoga, Sweat, and Community

A tiny hot studio, a stubborn dream, and a community forged in 105 degree. This is how Nicole built The Foundry, a yoga network where people come to sweat, heal, and start over. We dive into first classes that feel impossible, the discipline of the 26 and 2, and the calm that comes when you stay in the room.

Nicole shares what keeps students coming back, shorter classes for busy schedules, Pilates for strength and form, and HIIT to complement flexibility. We also talk the science of heat, studio expansion, retreats, and the teachers and alumni who make every class feel alive.

If you’ve ever needed a reset, a tougher practice, or a place to belong, this episode shows a path back to your mat.
