Kicking off 2026, Eye on the Poconos spotlights wellness and community at Hot Yoga Pocono in Mount Pocono.

Open for just a few months, the studio has grown from her unique journey as a financial advisor by day and yoga instructor by passion. Encouraged to bring hot yoga to the region, Alex now offers classes for all levels and abilities—creating a welcoming space.
