  • “I joined BDY in 2016 under the prodding of a friend (Thanks Amanda). I didn’t know what to expect but I definitely didn’t think I would still be here 3 years later having completed 500 classes and 200 hour yoga teacher training. My first class was heated power yoga class and I felt intimidated and insecure walking into that yoga studio but I’m glad I did! I felt welcomed and encouraged from the beginning of the class until the end. From the classes, to the instructors, and more recently the yoga teacher training, BDY has given me the tools to be my best self both physically and mentally.”

  • "I was immediately welcome at the front desk with a smile and enthusiasm. I have never joined a health center before and was nervous so this set me at ease right away. Every instructor I have had class with so far has been so supportive and helpful and have expressed thanks for people coming to class. It has exceeded my expectations. :)"

    - T. Stone

  • "While I have always been an active/athletic person. I seem to have never really found my "thing." I have played tennis, trained for and ran a half marathon, tried Zumba, and given it a go at just working out on my own, but none of these have taken a hold of my heart and soul like what I have found at BDY. Starting something new is intimidating, but from the first time I entered the studio, I knew I had found something very special. Every class, every instructor is amazing in their own way. The variety of classes offered gives me the opportunity to mix up my workouts to fit my schedule and adjust to what I feel my body is needing that day. The workouts are challenging, but I always leave feeling so much better than when I arrived. And I am new to yoga, but I'm really enjoying all of the challenges it brings as well. I am so grateful to have found this amazing little place here in Huntington. I definitely can't get enough."
