About Us

IMG_20211003_173408_215_edited.jpg

Hi! my name is Lourdes Klaastad. I own and manage VIVA Studio, and love sharing my passion for Pilates, fitness, movement and well-being.

I started my journey as a fitness professional over 30 years ago. My background is in gymnastics, track and field, group training and strength training.

In 2016, I started my journey with core training and Pilates taking various certifications, training and teaching.

After working as a Personal Trainer, Group Instructor and Center Manager in different countries, I became motivated to adapt and create my own fitness and training concept...

After all this years of dreaming, VIVA studio was born, in February 2022!

Experience Pilates and Fitness with us!

Come as you are, leave refreshed and re-energized!

Hi! I am Alanna Christensen, and I am thrilled to be part of the amazing team at VIVA Studio. I've been passionate about Pilates for over 10 years, having started my practice in high school and continuing to make it a key part of my fitness routine ever since. I work as an Activity Coordinator at a nursing home, where I teach balance and coordination classes, helping seniors stay active and engaged.

I enjoy a variety of workouts, including, yoga, running, strength training, and HIIT. I believe in the importance of functional strength and sustainable exercise habits, and love exploring new ways to move. I will be instructing Strength Interval and occasionally FIT360 classes. I look forward to helping you feel strong, balanced, and energized in every class!
