WeViva is a 501(c)(3) Non-profit organization in Austin, Texas. Our mission is to provide accessible and affordable fitness and nutrition programs to people in low-income communities. We target adults in the communities and provide the classes on-site and completely free of charge. WeViva is a team of bilingual, certified, group fitness instructors and nutritionists who go where we’re needed the most. Our classes are conducted by professional fitness instructors and nutritionists and have anywhere from 10-60 participants in each class. Our classes are held onsite at apartment complex or communities, so participants do not have to travel to our classes. Contact us if you want a fitness class in your community.
