Offering a compassionate and therapeutic path to helping women lead a life with less stress.
Where To Begin
Welcome to Birchwood Yoga. My name is Anneliese Wells. As a Yoga Therapist, specialising in stress management, I help women sustain equilibrium through Hatha Yoga (inspired by Vanda Scaravelli), therapeutic Yoga techniques and mindfulness. Whether you choose private tuition or my small weekly classes, you’ll build sustainable strength, improve your posture and cultivate flexibility of both mind and body. No matter your starting point, I can offer support to women living near Barcombe, Lewes, East Sussex. Why not let me help by getting in touch?
About Me
Yoga and Mindfulness have been instrumental in living a healthy and balanced lifestyle amidst the stresses and strains of living with ADHD and modern life. Being in nature or in my beautiful garden supports my mental health and this is why I love teaching in a rural setting; so that you too can breathe a sigh of relief upon arrival.
I understand the challenges that arise for women juggling work, family and our health while struggling with fluctuating hormones and symptoms that impact our sense of self. Today, more than ever we need to implement self care and compassion. We are always doing the best we can but sometimes we need a little help and I am here to give you that support.
It is an honour to witness the transformation that many of my students have experienced and I would love to work with you whether you are a complete beginner, someone struggling with stress ADHD or enjoying your second spring, preferring to take things at a slower pace.
“Absolutely wonderful; life enhancing in so many respects. I have learnt how to breathe with less effort and I use the techniques that I have learnt to bring much peace and calm to both my working day and home life. I cannot recommend or endorse Anneliese highly enough”
Course Recommendation: De-Stress Your Midlife
If you’re looking for a course specifically designed to address midlife challenges, my De-Stress Your Midlife course might be an excellent fit for you. This course is suitable for beginners and experienced practitioners alike. It focuses on techniques to help manage stress and improve overall wellbeing.
Classes at Birchwood Yoga are no longer taught in the studio but rather from my beautiful, airy attic space with views across the treetops!
“I found Birchwood Yoga by chance and feel that I have been very fortunate to have done so. Anneliese’s studio is an oasis of calm and a complete antidote to the busy multi tasking week so many of us have to cope with.”
