LEMONT, IL — Combining wellness, massage, women's fitness, physical therapy and more, Lemont resident Danyelle Andrews has started both Bee Well Collective and Hive Fusion Fitness.
Both businesses are in Lemont; with Bee Well Collective at 1011 State St., Suite 220, and Hive Fusion Fitness opening its doors this week at 228 Main St.
Andrews said Bee Well Collective offers health and wellness coaching, massage therapy, personal training, dry needling and physical therapy services. The "sister company" of Hive Fusion Fitness provides women's fitness classes, including strength, cardio, barre, pilates, qi-gong, werq, yoga and meditative style classes, and lifestyle workshops.
"Our boutique fitness studio is aimed at women aged 35-70 who are looking to find movement that helps them good and age well," Andrews said. "Bee Well Collective and Hive Fusion Fitness together provide a multitude of wellness services aimed at helping members live healthier and happier lives."
Andrews, who has a Doctorate in physical therapy, has 15 years of experience working in physical therapy settings. She said she knew when she opened her businesses, she wanted to do so within her own community of Lemont.

"When I got the idea that I might want to open my own [physical therapy] clinic I took a business course and wrote up my business plan," Andrews said. "During that process of really digging deep into what excites me as a physical therapist it became evident that my plan was much bigger than a physical therapy clinic- it was more about developing a multidisciplinary wellness center that would bring together many different types of wellness providers that would truly allow a holistic approach to wellness."
To further her plans, Andrews became a board certified health and wellness coach and a board certified Lifestyle Medicine Professional. She founded Bee Well Collective in 2022, and Hive Fusion Fitness in 2025.
Andrews said that upcoming programming at her businesses will include mom and me classes, kids yoga, pre-teen empowerment classes and meditation and energy workshops.
"We have plans to partner with other local women-owned wellness businesses to bring our members additional education on things such as hormonal health, mental wellness and clean beauty products," Andrews said. "We are about creating a community that empowers each other and the world around us."
