Grit Won’t Quit Podcast, Smokin’ Hot Yoga in Brick NJ with Tracy Zarriello

Healing, Heat, and a Whole Lot of Girl Power

When Tracy Zarriello walks into a room, you feel it. She exudes warmth, grit, and a spark that says “let’s go.”

Tracy was recently a guest on the Grit Won’t Quit podcast, hosted by Tom Mirabella of Wingman Planning, where she shared how hot yoga helped her move through profound loss, ditch a looming back surgery, and create a sanctuary where women (and the good men who love them) come to sweat, soften, and shine.

From Heartbreak to Hot Room

After a personal heartbreak and months of physical pain, Tracy followed a friend’s advice to try hot yoga and simply lay on the mat during class. That first step changed everything. With each breath, intention, and drop of sweat, her body softened and her mind steadied. Soon she was the woman waiting in the parking lot before sunrise, hooked on the clarity and calm that hot yoga brings.

“My intention was simple: I need to be okay. And the hot room helped me get there,” Tracy said.

That spark became Smokin’ Hot Yoga, a studio built from pure resilience and big-hearted hustle, complete with a signature chandelier made from a real tree (yes, Tracy literally dragged it out of the woods).

Why Our Heat Hits Different

Smokin’ Hot’s studio uses infrared heat, not sauna heat, so it feels clean and deeply therapeutic. The warmth moves into your joints and muscles, helping you open safely as you build strength, balance, and flexibility. Athletes love it. Newcomers are surprised by how good they feel. Everyone leaves lighter.

No phones. No shoes. No stress.

We lock the door at the start of class so your hour is a true sanctuary. Each session starts with a message or intention, giving your busy mind a soft place to land.

Expect sweat, laughter, and the kind of friendships that spill into bagels and cupcakes after class. This is the opposite of mean-girl energy. You’ll be greeted by name, cheered on, and welcomed into a community that plays hard and loves harder.

Built by a Woman Who Doesn’t Quit

Tracy has managed construction, HVAC, and chimney companies (shout out to the pink truck era). She knows how to build companies, teams, and now a studio that feels like home. Smokin’ Hot Yoga is her love letter to women who rise.
