Building Community & Elevating Wellness in the Heart of Huntington: What’s New at BDY Studios for 2026

In West Virginia, community isn’t something we talk about—it’s something we live. As travelers increasingly seek destinations that feel personal, connected, and restorative, Huntington has emerged as a welcoming hub for wellness tourism, remote work, and meaningful experiences. At BDY Studios, located centrally in the heart of Huntington, we’re proud to be part of that momentum as we enter an exciting new chapter for 2026.

Wellness as a Way to Bring People Together

For 13 years, BDY Studios has been more than a fitness space—it’s been a gathering place. Locals, students, visitors, and travelers find common ground in our yoga, barre, reformer and may Pilates, cycling, and strength classes. As interest in wellness-focused travel rises nationwide, we see more and more people visiting Huntington looking for places that feel like home, even if only for a few days. Our mission has always been to create this sense of belonging, offering classes that inspire, challenge, and connect.

A New Schedule Designed for How We Live, Work & Travel Today

In 2026, BDY Studios is launching a refreshed and expanded class schedule to better support a more flexible lifestyle—especially for travelers and remote workers who want fitness to fit seamlessly into their day.

Morning, midday, and evening classes will ensure that whether you’re exploring Huntington, working remotely from a café, or staying in town for a weekend getaway, you can always find a class that aligns with your plans. With private and small-group reformer sessions, balanced yoga flows, and dynamic strength and cardio offerings, there’s truly something for every visitor who values both movement and community.

A Central Location That Travelers Love

One of our greatest advantages is our central, walkable location right in Huntington. Visitors can easily pair a class with a stroll through downtown, a stop at a local restaurant, or a self-care moment at one of the city’s many small businesses. We see BDY Studios as not just part of the community—but a welcoming starting point for experiencing Huntington’s charm, hospitality, and growing wellness culture.

Looking Ahead: New Amenities for the Modern Wellness Traveler

Beginning in 2026, BDY Studios will be adding thoughtfully designed lifestyle amenities that support both wellness and today’s remote-first work culture. These updates are inspired directly by the needs of our local community and the increasing number of travelers who want spaces where wellness, productivity, and relaxation coexist.

Visitors can soon expect amenities such as:

  • A cozy coffee and tea lounge perfect for remote work, pre-class journaling, or connecting with friends

  • A studio sauna to enhance recovery and deepen the wellness experience

  • Inviting communal spaces created for conversation, connection, and community events

  • Upgraded technology-friendly work nooks supporting remote professionals, digital nomads, and those blending travel with productivity

These additions reflect the broader shift in tourism nationwide: people are seeking destinations where they can slow down, find balance, and feel part of a community—even while passing through. And for those who dream of visiting Huntington, but just can’t fit it into their schedule, a virtual studio class platform is on the horizon.  

Why Huntington Is Perfect for Wellness Tourism

Huntington is uniquely positioned for travelers who crave authenticity. Visitors don’t just experience a city—they experience the people who make it special. With its walkability, thriving small business scene, and rich Appalachian culture, Huntington offers true connection, something that global wellness travelers are prioritizing more than ever.

BDY Studios is proud to be part of that story. As we expand in 2026, our goal remains the same: to help people feel better—physically, mentally, and emotionally—while building community in a city we love.
