Fantastic experience: Ivy is great! Her fast paced, upbeat, always interesting yoga class is the one time I really sweat all week! Ivy League Strength hot yoga is great for all ages and fitness levels; Ivy is an expert at making class easier or harder depending on the workout you want (& need) any given day. She never does the same class twice, and you can always be prepared for a little extra surprise or 2 thrown in to switch things up too! Five stars for sure, check it out!

Fantastic experience: Hot Yoga at Ivy League Strength is a always a great workout. Each class is a little different so I don't get bored with my workout routine. Instruction and encouragement from Ivy helps me push myself a little harder than I would on my own. Plus it's more fun than going to the gym by myself!

Fantastic experience: I am a first time customer to Hot Yoga. I was definitely afraid I wouldnt be able to handle it as I personally hate all things related to exercise in any way shape or form. Ivy made the class work for beginners all the way to advanced all in the same class. It was a very calm and relaxed environment and I was amazed at how much better I felt right after class and even the next day. I will definitely be back and I encourage everyone to give it a shot just once. I know you will love it; I did!

Fantastic experience: Hot yoga with Ivy is the perfect addition to my day; whether I'm finishing up a long day of work or starting my weekend off right, a yoga session with Ivy makes me feel relaxed, rejuvenated, and energized all at the same time! She is able to guide newcomers through her class while simultaneously offering a challenge for the experienced yogi.

Fantastic experience: To be honest, I was never a big fan of yoga. I took classes a couple times, did the P90X version at home couple months, finished it, still did not really get into it. I basically like to work out, though. So when my friend told me to join Ivy's class with her, I was like, OK, I've got nothing else to do, I guess I will give it a try. Went there, did it, sweated like I was taking a shower, and loved it. I like the way Ivy conducts her class and how she helps/pushes us. Even those days when you don't feel like working out, you go there into the nice warm room with dim lights, do the first round and get your body warm, gradually get yourself into the yoga mood, second and third round, think nothing but making better poses and sweat and hiss, and then relax.... Clears your body, clears your mind. Ivy will come around and help you with your poses so you can get the right stretch that you need. Drink a lot of water before coming and you will have a great time.

Fantastic experience: I have been to hot yoga studios before, but I never enjoyed those experiences as much as the ones I've had at Ivy League Strength HOT YOGA. A skeptic at first, I didn't think that I would actually see results, but after a few classes, I was already feeling stronger. In addition to it being a great workout, I was more relaxed after and found that I actually had more energy the next day. Ivy is great - she is encouraging and keeps the studio light-hearted and fun - regardless of your experience or skill level. I give this studio five stars!

Fantastic experience: Ivy is just wonderful! I was very nervous about doing yoga for the first time but the atmosphere along with Ivy's personality melted all the fears and made me feel so comfortable. I can't wait to go back!!!

Anne Lippert 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Lexington's first true 105 degree alternative to Bikram yoga!! Nice flow, excellent instructor. Floors are actually heated and feel amazing. Its a cozy atmosphere and you will get personal attention. If you are looking to add to your Lexington yoga experience, check out this studio!

Ward Suthon 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Awesome instructor (taken her class for two+ years) who wants each person to do their best. She can get the beginners started off on a good foot, help the novice improve and really challenge the advanced athlete. Yoga takes time to learn but I strongly feel that you will get out of this class what you put into it. I am thankful after every class that I came.

Kari Patrick 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Ivy is a great instructor, the studio is beautiful. I always get a great workout & enjoy the flow of the class. It's a challenging workout & at the same time it is so relaxing & purifying!

Ryan Miracle 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Amazing hot yoga. Always feel like a million bucks afterwards. Facility is super nice and very clean. The instructor is knowledgeable, helpful, and gives you those little pushes to help you progress and get the most out of your experience. She's not bad to look at either.

Tyler Fields 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: As someone who had never really done yoga before, I was a little skeptical the first time I went to yoga at Ivy League Strength. That skepticism did not last long at all. Ivy puts you through a great workout that is effective for all skill levels and always finds ways to push you just a little bit further than you think you are able to go. I've found yoga to not only be very relaxing, but an awesome total body workout as well. Ivy is wonderful at providing personal attention to all of her students, and makes sure everyone gets as much as possible out of her classes. I couldn't recommend Ivy League Strength enough to anyone looking for a great yoga class in Lexington!

Andrew Jonelis 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Ivy is the best yoga instructor I've ever had without a doubt! She does a great job of pushing you out of your comfort zone but still respecting where each individual is in their practice. If you are in Lexington and are looking to do hot yoga, there's really only one choice: Ivy League Strength!

Whitney S 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Not only is hot yoga relaxing but it's a great, effective way to get in shape and tone up. Ivy is great, best hot yoga instructor! She explains everything, so we know what we're stretching & what's the best ways to target our trouble areas pain wise. She's educated and the flow of the class is great. Clean, homey feel

Miki Hirose 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: It's has been already past a month since I restarted taking hot yoga classes. I've been taking class three times a week so far now. My body and mind are changing a lot! Here are some conditions: detoxification, no more dry skin, no more headaches, no more pimples, can go to deep sleep after the class, positive thinking, happy mind and smiling a lot more than before! I'd love to take class everyday if I can!

Fantastic experience: From Tin Man to Stretch Armstrong - it started when I was begrudgingly drug to Ivy’s hot yoga 2 years ago. Having a CrossFit and lifting background for 15 years, I conveniently decided to neglect all flexibility/mobility. Well, all my weaknesses were quickly exposed. And Ivy was sure to point this out to me in her ‘tough-love’ style. The constructive criticism resonated and I decided to make mobility a priority. After 2 years of hot yoga and private sessions with Ivy, I feel the best I have in 20 years. I’m a skier and a golfer - the mobility improvements have made me significantly better at both. And more importantly, I can touch my toes and just move better in daily life. This progress has come with a lot of pain and suffering, but it’s been worth it. Ivy has been invested in my improvement, which has made all the difference. In her words, I went from a mangy dog on the side of the road to now an average functioning human. Haha Lastly, there’s no better way to cap off a stressful day than sweating out all your problems at 115 degrees, contemplating if you’ll actually die in the process. 10/10 recommend.

Mindy Steele 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Birthday yoga was the worst and the best, but mostly worst. Ivy is amazing, come suffer with us!

Collin Owen 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Ivy is fun and great at what she does. I am a total beginner in yoga and about as inflexible as they come, and I feel welcome here. If you're on the fence, give it a shot

Jacob Coburn 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: It's difficult to explain how you could find so much joy in suffering. This is such an awesome experience. I felt like I'd died and came back to life in class. Your body will thank you.

Fantastic experience: BEST HEALTH INVESTMENT I EVER MADE!!! I can’t rave enough about this place because it changed my life! I had been struggling with chronic nerve and muscle pain for years. Saw multiple physical therapists, osteopaths, massage therapists and spent lots of money the last year. Then my best friend gave me 3 hot yoga classes for Christmas last year at Ivy League strength. I was skeptical and it sounded horrible… I mean working out in 115F… but man was I wrong!!!! The heat in fact allowed me to finally safely work on stretching the sensitive muscles and nerves without hurting myself. Under Ivy’s excellent and consistent guidance I have become PAINFREE in only a couple months and my mobility and flexibility has improved more in 5 months than it has with regular yoga in 10+ years. Needless to say I am hooked!!! ❤️ best money ever spent! If everyone had an Ivy in their lives, we’d have half the physical (and mental!!! as this is incredibly stress relieving) health problems in this world! Try it! You won’t be disappointed. Plus it’s just such a fun and judge-free environment, everyone feels at home right away! Ps. I hate writing reviews and I never do, so this is completely unbiased. But I just felt like I had to share my opinion because this place is a game changer!!

Jennifer Brooks 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I have always thought that yoga was not my "thing"....but boy have I been wrong. I decided to take Ivy's hot yoga stretching class after it was recommended to include less intense bodyweight workouts into my regimen. I have never felt better! Love all the classes and music....thanks Ivy!

Lacey Schollenberger 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Ivy League Strength for 4 years now and there is no other studio like this! Hot yoga has been a great therapy for me to detox and forget the stresses of the day and just focus on getting through the class while sweating like a greased pig. The classes are for all levels of experience. It shows how much Ivy loves what she does by her dedication to everyone of her classes that she teaches 6 days a week. She really connects with each of her students and makes classes feel really comfortable even though it is 114 degrees!

emiko kodama 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Ivy League Strength is Best Hot yoga studio in Lexington hands down. Her class is different each time and you will never get bored. You can get variety of exercises and stretches through a class. Every time I feel stronger and accomplished after I finish a class. This place make people healthier mentally and physically :)

Anthony Eason 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: PSA: ILS is the BEST hot yoga instructor and personal trainer!!! I have been coming to Ivy Invalesco for almost 3 years now and my body "thanks" her greatly! Her variety of classes, knowledge, and ability to push you past your limits is exceptional and was just what I needed to improve my overall wellness. Her hot yoga classes have options for gentle stretching, cardio (fast funky flow), strength training (buff boot camp), and recovery (rolling and recovery). My family and I have taken multiple personal training sessions as well as hands-on personal stretching classes. Ivy educates and encourages all forms of movement and is able to provide a service that many people leave out of their workouts. Stretching in the heated room, consistently, has helped me overcome shoulder and achilles injuries. If you want to be pushed, HARD, but encouraged to be your best, please give her a try! I leave each class feeling that I can take on anything since I was able to survive her workouts! Thank you for everything IVY!!!

Fantastic experience: Ivy’s classes are just the best in town. Her studio is super hot in the best way possible from infrared heater on the ceiling to a heated floor. Her playlists are spot on for the class. Her flows are creative and an be as simple or complex as you want to make them. Her cuing is perfect and the atmosphere is fun, irreverent and welcoming. Love it!

Adrianne Cornish 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Love the vibe of this place- not too “om” and changes the way people view exercise. This is great for people with high-stress jobs or those who just want to get a really good calorie burn. I have been going to Ivy for four years now and I might feel like I am going to die at some points, I always feel so accomplished and strong afterward (and ready for a shower). Don’t be afraid of the heat, just try it once and you will never want to miss a workout again.

Dale K 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Ivy offers several different classes that are both rewarding and challenging. Some classes have elements of traditional practice, augmented with high intensity workouts, while others are at your own pace and embody a slow relaxing tempo. Her classes all contain a measure of reality and relatability that some studios lack. The focus was always on your personal goals and there was never a pressure to conform to a particular methodology. If you had a previous injury, she would work diligently to help and remember it next class. Her studio is welcoming and I was previlaged to have tried yoga for the first time there, around a great group of regular attendees. During the pandemic, Ivy offered her clients equipment and virtual classes, allowing me to continue my practice uninterrupted. I went to Ivy's Studio for about 2 years, before I had to move for work. I'm still trying to find a studio that has the same "soul" and core group of amazing people.

Renea Buckles 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality I started training with Ivy about six months ago and I have never felt better. She is encouraging and friendly but she also pushes me to work hard. I have also been to her classes and it’s the same great vibe. I would encourage any of my friends and family to go see Ivy. She’s the best!

Erin Kidder 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Ivy is the best yoga instructor. She really cares about her students, & goes above and beyond to remember her students’ limitations due to prior surgeries/injuries, and suggest modified poses so everyone can still participate safely in her classes. I had surgery earlier this year, and she has been so kind and inclusive, I am so thankful to be able to take her yoga classes! Her playlists are also very creative, & are much more fun than your typical “mediation” music. And her studio is very clean!

Malory Thelen 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: This is my favorite yoga studio in Lexington! I took Ivy’s classes all the way back when she taught in the Beck Center at Transylvania, and it was a no brainer when I saw her studio on MindBody. She is a fantastic instructor and will always provide modifications. The small class sizes are also a plus because Ivy’s clients are so welcoming and friendly. She is also taking Covid precautions very seriously. If I hadn’t moved out of state, this would hands down be my regular yoga studio.

Bonny Stewart 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Ivy is one of the best instructors ever. Every class is different, and you don't need to know anything about yoga to start. And if you already do a lot of yoga, her class bring your practice to the next level. She loves what she does and is great at it! I highly recommend it. Update June 2020: Ivy has opened up her new studio and it's amazing! Beautiful and immaculate. I've been taking classes with her for 4 years and she just keeps getting better. She offers creative classes of ALL kinds and is more of your anti-yoga yogi if you will:) No granola or chakra aligning per se but you are encouraged to express yourself and have a badass time doing it with LOTS of sweat and cursing. It's always fun and everyone of every level is welcomed.

Brendan J 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I checked out Ivy’s classes on a whim as a part of my recovery for all the fitness and martial arts training I do. It’s been unlike anything I’ve ever tried before. Not only did I see a great improvement in my recovery but my flexibility is better than ever too. It’s opened up techniques in my striking and grappling that I was apprehensive about using before. Not to mention she’s phenomenal at bodywork as well. She’s a great asset for any athlete out there that needs more active recovery.

Fantastic experience: Ivy League Strength is a cute little hot yoga studio run by the kind and encouraging Ivy. I just had my first class there, the Funky Flow Vinyasa, and it was a lot of fun! Ivy played really pumped up music while we practiced, from Nine Inch Nails to Nicki Minaj. She'd teach a set and then we'd do it on our own with the music blaring. It was quite a workout and I was able to push myself to my own limits because of the autonomy allowed in this class. I also dug the heated floor (nicccce), the dog in the lobby, and the easy parking just across the street. I really want to try her other classes now! (NOTE: She's implemented solid physical distancing measures and hygiene practices because of covid-19. Health forms required before you attend, temp checks at the door, masks worn at all times except on your mat, everyone brings their own equipment, sanitizing wipes available to all.)

Fantastic experience: Best yoga studio. Ivy's classes never disappoint, are always new, and always challenging. She has something for everything and adapts each class to fit the needs of the participants. She has free towel service, it is always clean, and sometimes there are snow cones! What more could you want?

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Ivy League Strength since the end of March 2019. I go at least twice a well, and I notice when I don't go. my body ends up missing it and I'm very high strung. Stretch classes are a great way to get your feet wet it's you're a new to yoga, but if you're looking for a great workout schedule class will do! It's mentally refreshing, great for all the hours I sit and stare at a computer!! Ivy and her yogies will make you feel welcome and empowered. Every little success is celebrated, even if it's just making it to class. I'm very grateful to be one of Ivy's students!!

Fantastic experience: Ivy is an incredible instructor — from her stretching classes to her buff boot camp, she leads you, makes you feel comfortable, and gives you an incredible workout! Ivy is also a funny, generous, and kind person which makes her classes that much better! The warm room, essential oils, and awesome music makes for heaven on earth!

Anne Bailey 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I LOVE IVY!! She isn’t your typical yoga instructor and that’s what I love most about her. She is a mix of Rock Music and Trap music hahah She will climb on you and put her body weight on you to help you get a deeper stretch. (It sounds weird but man, my hammers love the extra love) Of course only if you raised your hand when she asks if your okay with being touched. Another big shout out for asking for consent! She has evolved so much since I first went to her back in like 2015-2016 and it keeps getting better and better and she pushes you in all kinds of way. She keeps an engaging social media accounts that keep her clients up to date and informed on classes, class themes, and any cancellation/reschedules. Communication is number one! I highly recommend her to any beginners or experienced fitness/yoga enthusiasts! You will not be disappointed!

Fantastic experience: I started hot yoga a little over a year ago and I can emphatically say that Ivy's stretching classes are the single best thing I have ever done for my mind, body, and spirit. I had done basic yoga using home videos but this was my first formal class and I am totally hooked. Ivy is a fabulous instructor and she puts everyone from the beginner to the advanced practitioner at ease. Classes are adapted to individual abilities or needs but everyone remains challenged. The beginner or the advanced practitioner leaves every class better than you were before. Private sessions are phenomenal. Hot yoga improves flexibility, strength, balance and tolerance for life's daily challenges. I have rheumatoid arthritis and hot yoga with Ivy has reduced my joint pain and stress levels and significantly improved my mobility. Give it a try. It will change your life for the better!

Joey Maldonado 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Ivy has the ability to make you feel more motivated to reach your goals than any other place I have ever been to. The most amazing part about this place is that Ivy keeps it real, no sugar coating, no warm bubbly pitch, she is everything you want from a leader. You will never find a place quite this incredible!

Fantastic experience: Best thing I ever did for my back. When I started taking Ivy's class, I honestly could not touch my toes! I suffer from a herianted disc in my low back and this class has made a HUGE difference in my overall health. My back pain has gone away and I can tell a huge difference in my flexibility. I look forward to Ivy's class every week. Great self care! I highly recommend it.
