You have a unique way of presenting your wine collection. What type of wine do you have for your spring and summer collection and fall and winter collection? I change up the wine collection that I offer for every season. So far it may be a different collection for Spring/Summer and Fall/ Winter will be another different collection. My approach is very similar to how fashion presentations are introduced.

HOTWORX ALPHARETTA AT HALCYON
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!
