About Yogaviva

Yogaviva has become the most popular and successful school for Yoga & Pilates in Essex - more people choose and trust us than anywhere else - for 3 main reasons:

1. Our Wide Variety of Teachers & Classes

Our comprehensive selection of teachers and classes (the largest in the county) means that you can choose which class and when you attend - with classes 7 days a week taught by fully qualified and experienced instructors, you can attend any high quality class at anytime with no restrictions as there is always a session suitable.

2. Our State of the Art Facilities

We are Chelmsford's only specialised Yoga & Pilates studio set in a converted chapel in the centre of town. We are renowned for our calm and tranquil 'haven', a deeply relaxing environment with no sound distractions so that you have complete peace and tranquillity whilst you focus on yourself with no interruptions. Having taken classes ourselves in cold, air conditioned gyms and dirty church halls, we understand the importance of a clean studio and have underfloor heating (the warmth facilitating deeper muscular relaxation) and ceiling fans so there is no discomfort in practicing come rain or shine. Changing rooms with showers are available so that you can come to class after work or before going out, there's an upstairs cafe area at the 'Yogaviva Lounge' where you can relax and enjoy a complimentary tea or coffee on our handcrafted furniture. Channel 4's 'The City Gardener' Matt James designed our outdoor space with summer fruit and strawberries to pick, herbs to scent your way on the path to reception, a wildflower meadow to encourage beneficial wildlife into the middle of town and trees to offset our carbon use.

3. Our Customer Service and Personalised Programmes

We confer with you to help YOU decide what your personal goals are, and then we help you choose the program and classes that will best help you achieve your goals. A personal consultation will help us achieve an insight into your daily habits and routines, problem areas, excesses and probable causes. With all this information we can then plot a clear course to achieving your goals whilst we guide, support and encourage you. We work with professionals and therapists so that we have an entire range of services at your disposal to prevent and cure issues in order to make your healthier, fitter and living a better life.

How We Compare To Other Classes
