As if having our very own yogapoint were not enough, Effra-ites may be interested to know that there is actually a fully functioning yoga and massage studio right in the heart of the community, at 11 Mervan Road.

Going by the name of “Joyoga studio” it is run by Joy Anderson, and her classes are “a unique combination of Scaravelli inspired yoga along with a dynamic Vinyasa flow making it accessible for everyone”. Joy adds that the studio is: “used mainly by local residents and is a little jewel in the community.”

You can find out more by visiting www.joyogastudio.com or emailing Joy on info@joyogastudio.com. She also told effrablog that she might be able to offer a first-time discount to local residents, so make sure to mention where you live…
