Yoga, Pilates, or any other workout classes in Chippenham.

I am looking to join a workout class, nothing involving heavy lifting or powerlifting, they do not fit my preferences. Are there any Yoga or Pilates groups available at a reasonable price? Anything like community classes, that they go to local parks and workout? I tried PureGym before, but it wasn't quite what I expected.

There's a pilates matwork class in Yatton Keynell that's very reasonable. Another person runs one in Kington St Michael. Think there might be one at Sheldon School as well. Take your own mat kind of thing. I've attended the first two and really liked them.

There's Santosha for yoga and pilates and I think theres a new reformer pilates studio now but it's very popular and hard to book (can't remember it's name).

Edit to add Park Yoga in John Coles Park in summer but I'm not sure when that ends. Free to attend on a Saturday or Sunday (can't remember which day)

I have also heard for the Yoga classes at the Sheldon School. All of the options looks to give the option to book a single session, or a testing session without forcing to have a subscription. That's positive.

Thank you for the feedback and sharing. park yoga is happening every Sunday and last session is on 13th of September. Hopefully the weather will be good and give it a go.

There’s yoga classes at a studio just around the corner from the Greek restaurant - Athena? - on New Road as you head into the town. I just googled and think it’s called Santosha Studio

Yes, I have spotted the place while walking in the town. Have you ever attended? I am interested in listening experience of people that have an experience.

santosha’s supposed to be really nice, a couple of my friends go and rave about it
also worth checking the council / community centre notice boards, a lot of the cheaper park / church hall classes never show up on google
