HAVEN MOVEMENT
BODY INCLUSIVE GYM SYDNEY
Who is Haven for?
Maybe you're like many of us at Haven - tired of toxic gym culture that centres on aesthetics & weight, or you consider yourself not really a 'gym person'.
Perhaps you identify with being part of a marginalised community, or someone living in a larger body & haven't felt supported or welcome in fitness spaces before.
Maybe conventional gyms feel daunting and overwhelming or you just don't feel at home in traditional gyms and crave more of an authentic community...
Haven might be the fitness home for you!
We're proudly diet-culture-free and weight-inclusive (zero reference to weight/size/shape) - we know that fitness and health can come in all packages.
Haven is here to foster a space where all bodies are warmly welcomed and supported, without diet culture or body heirarchy, and we can't wait to open our doors to city folk seeking something fresh in gym culture!

City FAQs
HAVEN CITY FAQS
Our exciting new venue offers a few key differences to our Inner West Haven!
🌈 Movement focused, with room to grow!
The city space is big on fitness classes and movement that will make you feel energised and strong! Plus a generous menu of complementary classes including Move Smooth Mobility, Stretch & Flex and Slow Yoga, as well as our Summer Hill yogi favourites and Hatha Flow and Grounded Yoga (Hatha).
As we settle in, we’re keen to explore the demand for more options such Pilates, Dance, Barre and more. Watch this space!
🌈 A space for all genders
All of you who've shared that you have male partners / friends / colleagues keen for a bit of Haven, this is the place! We know that the city vibe is a little different to the Inner West but one look at the space, the library and getting to know us will help newcomers know if Haven is the space they're for them. We're confident that our message will continue to attract those who value kindness, inclusivity, and fitness with heart.
🌈 What about the other services?
Our OG' studio Summer Hill offers complementary services (nutrition, counselling) with private therapy rooms. Look out for online options coming soon to Haven Movement too!
🌈 What's with Haven Movement / vs Haven Wellness?
You'll see Summer Hill referred to as 'Haven Inner West' or 'Haven Wellness' whereas the city location has been named 'Haven Movement' or referred to as 'Haven City' (we realised quickly the internet doesn't like the Central Business District abbreviation!). This reflects the offerings at each.
🌈 Are there any pricing differences?
With the City’s higher operating costs, we hope you can appreciate that our membership offerings will be slightly different and reflect these higher expenses, but we’ve worked hard to offer the best value, be able to maintain the Summer Hill Community Offering, while keeping Haven’s signature warm and welcoming feel.
🌈 Can I use my current membership?
Right now - yes! Current memberships & passes held by current community members will offer you access to both locations until 1st December (and we’ll make sure you’re offered a generous option to grab that Dual membership then too!).
🌈 Accessibility - noise - ambience - temperature - facilities?
Similar to Summer Hill, we have a large gym floor and a mezzanine (with stairs), and are accessible via the garage street entrance. Both the mezzanine and 'The Hub' (under the mezzanine - no stairs) may host offerings such as yoga and stretch.
This is also a warehouse with high ceilings and will be cooled with large (and somewhat loud) fans.
Our next floor neighbours are a women's kickboxing studio who are pretty vocal - so we're mindful as we plan yoga classes around this!
We have a bathroom with two showers & loos, a change room and open cubby holes on the gym floor for your items.
We have yoga mats, blocks, blankets & straps.
🌈 What about mirrors?
Haven Inner West has proudly been mirror-free, which helps our community feel distraction-free and gently tuning into their bodies. This can be especially helpful for folk working through challenges with their relationship with their bodies or movement. Our City location came with mirrors installed, with one larger one at the end of the gym floor which will remain however soon will have an easily removeable curtain that can easily be pulled aside for folk who may find valuable for their form.
🌈 How do I find Haven City ?
We're super well connected, right in the heart of the City!
