Cali is where your training lives. Strength you can see. Skills you never thought your body could do. A little more this month than last, then a little more again. That is what coaching and a community that shows up with you can build. Coached calisthenics classes at our gym in Bath and streamed live to your living room. Book a class in seconds, follow workouts built by your coaches, log your nutrition, and watch the progress stack up week after week. We didn't start as an app. Cali began with free Sunday sessions in a Bath park and grew into a gym, a coaching academy and a community that knows each other by name. The coach who writes your workout is the same one spotting you on the rings on Saturday. Your first pull-up. Your first handstand. The version of you that keeps showing up. It all starts with one class. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Book coached classes in a couple of taps - Train from home with CaliLive - Follow structured workouts built by your coaches - Track your streak, sessions and personal bests - Log nutrition and daily check-ins in your Hub - Set a goal and chase it down, from your first pull-up to a press to handstand Come and see why people don't just join Cali, they stay. caliunity.com

No more missed sessions because your shift moved. Built for beginners Every exercise comes with plain English instructions and a photo, so you know exactly what to look for in the gym. Calisthenics starts at your level and steps up only when you are ready, from knee press ups to full press ups, one rung at a time. Log food in seconds Snap a photo of your meal and Formavo estimates the calories and protein. Add up to four photos of the same item, for example the front and the nutrition label, for a more accurate result. You can edit everything before saving. Track what matters Calories and protein against your daily targets. Weight once a week, because daily weighing tells you very little. Sleep, so you can see how nights affect you. Everything lands in one diary you can look back on. No gym needed The calisthenics programme runs anywhere, at home, in a break room, on a night shift. No equipment, no excuses. Formavo is made by seyiHQ in Derby, England.
