“I used to work in Wayne so have great memories of my time there. I’ve wanted to bring our brand of yoga to town since we opened our first studio six years ago,” LePore said. “And the location on Route 23 is terrific.”

There are about 26 classes, most of which are heated, offered a week at the new location, which also has flooring that radiates heat.

LePore also says it’s more than just opening another business for him.

“It’s always special bringing yoga to a new community, especially to people who are new or newish or have never tried it,” LePore said. “Our goal is to make yoga - hot yoga - accessible to as many people as possible.”
