Hello! My name is Bethany Wilcox, but I go by Bethany Chu to many. I've been teaching yoga, pilates, and meditation since 2016, and I am a huge advocate for the idea that I know to be truth: that we can all be well in this life through small daily actions that we take. In terms of credentials, I hold a Doctorate in Physical Therapy, but I often find that I can help even more people through what I write, teach, share online, or say during a meditation. During graduate school I started sharing classes and flows online as @arkyogagirl, and that page became its own little world. Over time it grew into Bethany Davis Wellness, and eventually into what it is today — B Well, an online studio where I teach alongside Alex, Taylor, and Teja. Building a team has been one of the most rewarding parts of this whole journey.

My journey with whole food nutrition began when I healed lifelong chronic ulcers, constipation, and eczema through nutrition. It sounds simple when I write it out, but it changed the way I understood wellness entirely — and it led me to become a certified holistic nutritionist. That experience is the foundation of my recipes, my approach to food, and my book Hot Girl Smoothies — 16 smoothie recipes designed to expand your gut microbiome. Around the same time, I co-founded Story Coffee House — a neighborhood coffee shop rooted in community, conversation, and really good coffee. I also started a nonprofit called Project Warm, which has since moved to Oregon and continues its mission. Graduate school was supposed to be about studying, but I couldn't help building things. I think that instinct — to create, to care for people, to keep making — has been the thread through everything.

In my daily life, I am a mom of one, with another one on the way. My wellness practices have absolutely fueled my pregnancies and how I’ve navigated them. You can also find a lot about my pregnancies in my writing and on my social media platforms. I love a good 20 minute pilates or strength class, and you can’t catch me ever going a day without a meditation or a cup of coffee. Both are my drugs of choice, and I have no shame!

My passion for living well was fueled by my own anxiety and depression, and my personal practice on the mat grew into a lifestyle that has healed me. I hope to share what I love and what has helped me to encourage and inspire others that they can do the same in their own lives. I fully embrace the idea that wellness isn't just what you do on the mat. It's how you talk to yourself, who you surround yourself with, what you eat, what you create, and how show up in the world. This website and everything is my practice of putting all of those pieces in one place. I hope it serves as a toolbox that you can use to live a life where you feel better.

I'm so glad you're here.
