Thank you to HOTWORX 24 Hour Infrared Fitness Studio for renewing your sponsorship AND upgrading to a Silver Sponsor of our Step Up 4 Down Syndrome 2023 Walk! We appreciate your support of the Broward Gold Coast Down Syndrome Organization!

HOTWORX is a virtually instructed exercise program created for users to experience the many benefits of infrared heat absorption, while completing a 30-minute Isometric workout or 15-minute High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) session. As the infrared heat penetrates your body causing you to sweat, the isometric postures further accelerate detoxification by physically removing the toxins from your organs through muscle contraction.

Our patented sauna combines heat, infrared, and exercise– what we like to call “3D Training”– and makes HOTWORX a workout unlike any other fitness program available!
