About FLEX
FLEX launched in physical form in 2019, but the hunt for the perfect London studio commenced many years before. Wanting to bring happiness back into the heart of Londoners, founder Chatty Dobson (now Mavros) knew there was a need for people to move their bodies in a welcoming environment, to reintroduce connection to the lives of busy Londoners, calm minds, and lift spirits.
FLEX Chelsea had many happy years in the heart of Chelsea, and also digitally, keeping spirits high during the testing times of Covid. In 2022 Chatty made the tough decision to close the studio, following her heart to Zimbabwe.
Since making a home and new studio (and baby!) in Harare, Chatty has now launched FLEX Away to bring the same community, enthusiasm and joy to wellness retreats in London, Zimbabwe and beyond!
About Chatty
Chatty is a multi-skilled yoga instructor and practitioner. With over 17 years of experience, she is trained in vinyasa, pre-natal, Yin, meditation and yoga for addicts.
Her passion is sharing how movement can clear a stagnant mind and body, and bring happiness into your life. She loves teaching students of all levels, whether it’s introducing people to the yoga practice, seasoned yogis, or uncomfortable pregnant ladies.
Chatty has been featured in the press on a wide range of yoga and business topics, and was also a guest on the UK’s leading daytime television show - ITV’s This Morning.
Having always had a huge love of nature, going so far as to study Environmental Science at The University of Edinburgh, this FLEX Away is an amalgamation of her two passions and she can’t wait to share them with you. And when she’s in London, she is more than happy to put on her townie yoga hat and share the practice in retreats there too!
