Locally Owned XO Pilates Brings Fresh Wellness Vibes to Forney - Studio Opening Winter 2025
More than just another gym, XO Pilates offers a mindful, inclusive space for movement and community — starting now with pop-up classes at the historic McKellar House.
FORNEY, TX — July 25, 2025 — Big-box gyms and CrossFit-style workouts might dominate Forney’s fitness scene, but something new is stretching into town—and it’s designed with every body in mind.
XO Pilates, a locally owned and operated Reformer Pilates studio, is opening its doors in Winter 2025, bringing with it a fresh, personalized approach to movement, wellness, and community. The founders say the studio is for anyone looking to breathe deeper, move intentionally, and feel stronger—regardless of age, background, or fitness level.
“We’re not just another gym,” said a spokesperson for XO Pilates. “We’re building something special—right here in our hometown. A place to move, reset, and feel good. No intimidation. No ego. Just real people building real strength together.”
A Local Studio with Heart
Rooted in Forney and run by locals, XO Pilates aims to create more than just a place to exercise. It’s a thoughtful, welcoming space that prioritizes connection as much as core strength. From one-on-one private Reformer sessions to group mat pop-ups, every class is designed to meet people where they are and help them feel better—inside and out.
As their motto goes:
“Come as you are. Leave feeling better.”
