INCLUSIVE FITNESS & YOGA STUDIO SUMMER HILL & SYDNEY CBD​
Boutique Gym - Group Fitness - Yoga Classes - Pilates - Boxing - Exercise Physiology - Personal Training
Haven is a special body-affirming space designed to help our members cultivate a peaceful relationship with their bodies through movement, yoga and self-compassion.​
​
Curated with love since 2018 by Founder Anna & her Team, Haven is the fitness home for folk seeking an antidote to conventional aesthetically-focused, toxic gym culture...one where all shapes & sizes are treated equally, respectfully and with care. We are the 'OG' of body positive movement!
​
And, we love to encourage fun with community & movement!
​
We're proudly fat-positive, non-diet and weight-inclusive - meaning we don't focus on weight loss, rather we neutralise body size and gently draw your attention to enjoying movement and caring for your body - not controlling it, shrinking it or judging it.
​
At Haven, body diversity is celebrated, and all bodies - whether tall/short, big/small, black/white, young/old, tight/flexible, slow/fast, - are equally valued and warmly welcomed!

WE'RE PROUDLY DIFFERENT TO CONVENTIONAL GYM CULTURE​
Weight-inclusive, HAES-aligned approach
We know that bodies are diverse, and fitness & health come in all shapes & sizes and we celebrate every body!
Our approach centres on compassionate movement - honouring your unique needs – whether you're after a powerful, sweaty workout or something more gentle - all options are valid and we cater to all!
Minimal mirrors, no judgements, no gym-bros & no diet-culture!
You will never see any suggestion that your body should be 'fixed', shrunk, manipulated! We actively promote body diversity and encourage challenging society's narrow body ideals.
We strive to foster an environment that supports our community to feel at ease and free to explore movement without judgements, egos or toxic gym culture.
Neurodiverse & LGBTQIA+ folk welcome!
We're proudly LGBTQ+ friendly and support our neurodiverse communities. Our Inner West studio, originally women-only, remains a space for women, non-binary, trans-masc, and gender-diverse folk following the guidance & input from our community, but our City Studio is open to all genders.
Words from our community:
"I am so grateful for your encouragement and support. I've spent the last 5 years unlearning a lifetime of disordered eating and body shame so finding Haven has been life changing for me. I honestly didn't think i would ever enjoy movement as much as this - yoga is something i will do for life now. Thank you for creating such a safe and supportive community" 💖

I love that I can workout at my own pace, that modifications/options are offered for all levels.
