About Us

Studio Viva was born when another ladies’ gym in Cowbridge closed suddenly. Some of the members of the old gym were desperate not to lose the facility they valued so much, so they came together to form Studio Viva and run it as a co-operative. It took just 6 months for this team of formidable women to create Studio Viva, which opened on 6th November 2017.

Today the studio is run by MD Louise Shakespeare and a fantastic team of fitness instructors, with the help and support of the original founding ladies. We are really proud of the welcoming, inclusive environment we have created for women of all ages and love helping women to feel better and achieve their own fitness goals. 

So whatever you want to achieve, whether that’s getting up more easily, to losing some weight or toning up those bingo wings, we can help. The whole team looks forward to welcoming you Studio Viva Ladies Fitness.
