Edmonton, we’re bringing more than memories home from Sauna Fest. 🔥🧊

We’re bringing inspiration for the guided sauna and cold plunge programming we’re introducing at Circa this October, and we cannot wait to experience it with you.

Shared rituals. Moments to challenge yourself. Space to slow down. And people beside you to make it all feel a little easier.

Our biggest takeaway? The heat, the cold, the laughs in between…it’s so much better together. 🌀

Send this to the person you want beside you for your next sauna session. October programming details are dropping soon.

Edmonton, you showed up. 🥹

About 1,000 of you have come out to sweat, soak, and connect with us since we started Circa. That’s a real community, not a coincidence.

If you’ve been one of them: thank you. The robes, the sauna hangs, the cold plunge chats, that’s exactly the ritual we’re building Circa around.

If you haven’t made it out yet, there’s still time. Fall bookings are open now, whether you want a private cold plunge session or want to bring us out for an event. More pop-ups are planned before the permanent studio opens, and we’d love to see you at one.

Guided doesn’t just mean someone talks you through the steps. It means someone’s actually watching how you’re doing along the way.

One of our guides walked us through what that looks like in practice, from the moment you arrive to the moment you leave.

Follow along as we continue to build Circa.

Drinks with friends have their place. So does knowing when to pause.

At Circa, that pause is the point. Heat, cold, rest, and the comfort of being surrounded by like minds, all moving toward something beyond the usual night out.

Follow along as we build a place Edmonton can gather around, one loop at a time.

We showed up at the finish line of the Edmonton Marathon with something most runners weren’t expecting: a sauna and cold bucket.

On August 16th, we brought the mobile sauna to the race, set up right past the finish, heat and rest waiting for legs that had just done a lot more than warm up.

Every stop teaches us something new about how this city moves, recovers, and comes back to center.

More events ahead. Follow along as we keep building toward the studio.

The 3 questions everyone asks us about contrast therapy, answered.

Have a question we didn’t answer? Let us know in the comments, and we’ll answer it.

Pain isn’t the point of a cold plunge, and it never has been.

At Circa, most cold rounds only last a minute or two. Short on purpose, because staying regulated builds resilience more than pushing through discomfort ever will.

Follow along as we build a thermal studio Edmonton can return to every week.

We’re not trying to build something people visit once and forget. We want Circa to be part of the rhythm of your week, the same way a standing dinner with friends is.

A place where showing up enough times means you’re not a stranger in the room anymore.
That’s the kind of belonging we’re working toward. Slowly, and on purpose.

What would make a place feel like it’s actually yours?

On August 7th, we brought the mobile sauna to Glendale Golf & Country Club for an evening built around heat, water, and good company. No agenda beyond showing up and feeling the shift together.

This is part of why the mobile sauna exists: to bring the experience to Edmonton before Edmonton comes to us. Every stop teaches us something new about how this city gathers, unwinds, and returns to itself.

More pop-ups ahead. Follow along as we keep building toward the studio.

The two people who couldn't stop talking about social saunas long enough to build one. Marissa and Kevin are the founders behind Circa Thermal Studio, opening in Southwest Edmonton in early 2027.

Coming off the pandemic, we were living in Toronto, working in tech, building a business, and completing a master’s degree. The world was demanding more and more from us, and
we were barely keeping up.

We craved connection; with each other, with others, and with ourselves. In the little downtime we had, we would drive an hour and half out to experience nearby spas and rest for the week ahead. It quickly became part of our weekly routine. A place we could go to socialize with friends or colleagues that didn’t revolve around alcohol. A place we could go inward for 60-minutes without
needing to commit to a full spa day.

Over time, we kept coming back to the same idea: Edmonton also needed a place built around slowing down. This was the start of Circa. Life brought us back to Edmonton. On June 7th, we launched our pop-up sauna in Edmonton - a mobile wood burning sauna fit for 10-12 people, built inside a 16ft trailer.

Months in and so much love has come our way! And we are just getting started. Follow along on our journey to turn Circa into a Nordic retreat right here in Edmonton.
