About Amelia

I’m Amelia, a yoga, breathwork and mindfulness teacher based in West Wales. I live with my husband and our three children at Cowpots, our family farm, campsite and Wild Spa.

My work has grown from a lifelong interest in wellbeing, movement and our connection with the natural world, alongside more than 20 years of experience working with children, young people and families.

Becoming a mother shaped much of the direction my work has taken. It deepened my interest in how we support ourselves and others through the demands of everyday life — physically, mentally and emotionally — and eventually led me more deeply into yoga, mindfulness and breathwork.

Today I teach Hatha Yoga and pranayama, work with children and young people, deliver sessions within schools, and create retreats and wellbeing experiences at Cowpots Wild Spa.

My Approach

My approach brings together traditional Hatha Yoga, pranayama, mindfulness and relaxation with a practical understanding of how movement, breathing and rest can support our physical and mental wellbeing.

My sessions are welcoming, down-to-earth and accessible. You don’t need to be flexible, experienced at yoga or able to switch off your thoughts — you simply start where you are.

I’m particularly interested in the role of the breath and nervous system in stress, sleep, recovery and how we feel day to day.

Alongside my regular classes, I love taking this work outdoors. At Cowpots Wild Spa I combine yoga and breathwork with time in nature, sauna, cold water and deep relaxation through retreats, workshops and special events.
