Haven Wellness - Body Positive Fitness & Yoga Studio

Fantastic experience: Excellent and positive environment

Fantastic experience: Haven Wellness is perfectly named. I attended Cara‘s yin yoga class tonight what is exceptional, offering the perfect blend of gentle stretching and deep relaxation. What truly makes this studio special is its inclusive, welcoming atmosphere. The staff are knowledgeable and caring, and the community is supportive and friendly. If you're seeking a judgment-free space to nurture your wellbeing, Haven Wellness delivers exactly what its name promises.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Fantastic experience: I've been at Haven for a few years and it's been the best gym experience I've ever had. I have never liked conventional gyms and Haven has created a fun, inclusive environment that pushes you for your best not for fitness standards. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to get back into the gym but wants a good environment.

Fantastic experience: Haven is so much more than fitness and wellbeing, it’s a community. The teachers are so skilled and supportive and everyone so warm and welcoming. You have to try it!

Fantastic experience: Haven Wellness is exceptional and ahead of the game. Such a luxurious space with a space that separates you from the outside world and allows the deepest for of rest , recovery , peace and reset. The staff is knowledgeable , welcoming and vibrant to ensure the best experience. This place has become apart of my regular schedule in recovering from vigorous training as an athlete and or to come and unwind. You walk out of those doors unweighted and equipped to give yourself back to everyday activities. Highest recommendations.

Fantastic experience: Haven walks the talk - the most friendly, community-minded and caring gym. I’ve tried so many traditional gyms in the past and I’ve never been consistent in attending however I can’t get enough of Haven. Every single coach and yogi is warm, knowledgeable and supportive, especially the founder Anna who knows pretty much everyone by name. The other members are friendly and non judgmental. The extra offerings such as social events, workshops and activities take Haven to beyond being a gym, it’s a community. I highly recommend Haven to everyone i talk to about movement and wellness.

Fantastic experience: Love this gym! Have been attending for over year. Appreciate the gains I’ve made to my overall fitness & health, plus the confidence to try new things. Lynsey is my amazing PT, but all the staff I’ve met have been so supportive and welcoming.

Fantastic experience: Never thought I would find a place that celebrates body positivity and movement as much as Haven does. The flexibility of being able to pick and choose your classes (plus the range on offer!) is a game changer. Anna has been so warm and welcoming from day one, and I love how invested every trainer is in making sure you make the most of your session. Myf is a gem - my first session at Haven was almost a year ago with her, and she has been there to encourage and celebrate all my little wins since. Haven is definitely a hidden Inner West treasure!

Fantastic experience: The best I’ve never been so comfortable in an exercise space until I started at Haven a few years ago. I’ve also never been so consistent with exercise. It’s a safe space full of good people.

Fantastic experience: Not only does Haven have a HAES approach to movement, but Anna has ensured that queer folk, or people who usually experience some form of exclusion, are welcomed here.

Fantastic experience: Haven is made up of the most lovely, caring group of people you could imagine! I have struggled with my relationship with my body and movement my whole life but I feel so comfortable at Haven and I am now able to move my body with joy, in a non-diet, non-judgemental space. Anna is so warm and welcoming, Nav the exercise physiologist is so knowledgeable and encouraging, the yoga and fitness classes are amazing and the admin team go above and beyond to help any way they can. I never want to leave. Thank you Haven!

Fantastic experience: Great team, great range of classes, healthy and positive attitudes to fitness, and the people and space are friendly and welcoming. The staff are great at accommodating both beginners and experienced exercisers. On a practical note, the app for booking your sessions works really well and is very user friendly.

Fantastic experience: Best studio in area :)

Fantastic experience: The most supportive and caring place to exercise ❤️ Such a wonderful community. I love HAVEN’s values and the classes are really fun Really recommend checking it out - the cuppa and consult is an excellent way to understand the thought behind haven.

Fantastic experience: I've been with Haven nearly two years and love the "Your Body Your Movement" ethos. Focus is on the gentle/ wellness sides of health and fitness. No comparisons. No 'gym bros'. An open and supportive place with a great variety of offerings, and plenty of timetable choices that are easy to view and book via the app. - Accessible toilet and shower. Same goes for majority of the studio. - Close to train station and Summer Hill Village. - Allied health and other services include: Exercise Physiology, Personal Training, Nutrition, Beauty & Massage, and Councelling & Psychology. Fun. Kind. Welcoming.

Fantastic experience: I first joined in January and have been meaning to leave a review ever since. This is the most welcoming and nonjudgmental fitness place I have ever had the pleasure of being in. As the name suggests, it is a haven from the general 'gym cultures' and has allowed me to explore movement in a new and exciting way. I am very thankful to Anna, Kailah and the rest of the team, and look forward to being a member for years to come! Definitely look up their values to see if they align with yours and sign up if you want to be part of this community

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love Haven! Thanks to Anna and the amazing calibre of trainers… I feel so safe and welcomed every time I enter the studio. I went from zero activity to daily conscious movement and the wide variety of classes on offer allows me to experience anything from yoga to boxing depending on what my body/mind needs. When you step into the studio it’s an ‘experience’.. with no mirrors, friendly members and well thought out classes I’ve never experienced anything like it before. It’s body inclusive and non judgemental… I just feel free, empowered and strong. I have learnt so much over the past 8 months and I can honestly say Haven has been a God sent to me, showing up when I needed it the most and helping me gain my confidence back. Thanks so much to Anna and the team, your caring and inclusive approach will keep me coming back for a long time! ❤️

Fantastic experience: This is such a special place. Anna has created a warm and welcoming place that as soon as you walk in you know you’re safe and valued there. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I LOVE Haven! Such a welcoming space and a lovely community that genuinely care for and support each other! Booking classes is super easy and I love the flexibility of being able to attend in person or online. I can't recommend highly enough!

Fantastic experience: This place is really special! A completely judgement-free zone and really means that. I’ve never felt more safe and supported exercising in a plus size body. My exercise physiologist, Ellen is the best EP I’ve ever met. Unlike other EPs, she really takes time to get to know you and your mindset around exercise, rather than just giving you a wash and repeat workout program. I’m so happy to have connected with Ellen for my ED recovery.

Fantastic experience: Haven is the best!!! So glad I discovered it. Thanks Anna for creating such a safe, inclusive and beautiful space.

Fantastic experience: Haven is such a welcoming space that I felt instantly comfortable. From the minute you walk in the door you feel supported and accepted. The body positive beauty services offered by Jeni, make Haven a complete wellness experience. Jeni’s treatments are high quality and relaxing - self care at it’s finest!

Fantastic experience: Haven has been one of the most welcoming fitness experiences I have ever had. As someone who has tried a lot of classes and health regimes - I have felt empowered and embraced by the community at Haven. Their unique approach means there's a holistic set of services to nurture and support clients. An absolute must-visit, and one of the inner wests best kept secrets!

Fantastic experience: Best gym ever! Can not reccomend this gym more, the support is unlike any gym I've ever been to and the community feeling is brilliant. For any woman looking to not only improve their fitness but also their relationship with exercise and their bodies I would strongly reccomend popping by for a chat.

Fantastic experience: Words can’t describe how lucky I feel to have found Haven. I felt warmly welcomed right from the start, and am always confident that I am in safe, professional and compassionate hands. Anna and the team have taught me so much and I’m incredibly grateful to be part of such an amazing community. Proudly anti-diet, body positive and size inclusive, Haven offers more than just fitness classes. Reach out - you won’t regret it!

Fantastic experience: Haven is a fitness centre like no other. Warm, welcoming and accepting of all sized bodies and limitations, helping women work out in a safe space. Haven offers many different options for classes, including strength, HIIT, dancing and yoga, where options are offered in all classes to be done at your own pace. I would recommend Haven to everyone!

Fantastic experience: A really beautiful and healing space that is definitely the first of its kind in Sydney. The community is friendly, real and salt of earth kind of people. All the trainers, yoga teachers and of course the lovely Anna (Owner of Haven) are absolutely amazing in what they do and offer such a broad range of services for clients of ALL BODIES. Personal training, group training, hatha yoga, yin yoga, massage... the list goes on! A real gem in the Western suburbs and a gem within all of Sydney!

Fantastic experience: Haven is the only fitness studio I’ve enjoyed. Truly body positive, actively against diet culture and great for larger bodies. Anna is a professional, body positive trainer who makes you truly enjoying moving intuitively and embracing the joys of things like yoga. This place is truly a haven for me and I would recommend to women without reservation.

Fantastic experience: Haven is the best gym I've ever belonged to. Definitely don't expect to show up and resentfully put in your time on a machine. The classes are small and personal. The encouragement is genuine. It's not just a place to work out, it's a place to make friends with your own body!

Fantastic experience: Anna is the best PT I’ve ever worked with. She’s the real deal - genuine, caring and focused on getting results - the right way. Haven is a sanctuary from the busy world outside and I look forward to my time there. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: Anna is an amazing PT. She tailors everything to your personal fitness level, your needs/wants & capabilities. She is the most non-judgemental trainer I have ever come across and is so passionate about making everyone feel comfortable. I would not hesitate to recommend Anna to anyone.

Fantastic experience: You can’t tell from the outside of the building, but the studio really is a haven inside. Working with Anna for more than a month now I am feeling a new sense of confidence and I’m really enjoying our sessions. Anxiety free and a truly body positive space, would highly recommend Haven!
