Founder Ange, a trained yoga teacher, brings a wealth of experience and passion to Onsen Wellbeing. Alongside her teaching qualifications, she has spent 16 years working as a school principal, which further complements her role as a yoga teacher. Her own personal journey with yoga began over a decade ago when she sought relief from chronic lower back pain. Through her practise, she discovered the numerous benefits of yoga, including stress management, improved strength and flexibility, mindfulness, and overall wellbeing.
Inspired by her grandmother, who practised yoga throughout her life, Ange is dedicated to sharing the magic of yoga with others and helping them lead healthier and more balanced lives.
The name "Onsen Wellbeing” reflects Ange's fascination and admiration for Japanese culture and wisdom. In Japanese culture, an onsen refers to a hot spring rich in beneficial minerals. Traditionally, Japanese people bathe in these hot springs to experience numerous health benefits. Ange sees yoga as an immersive practise that allows individuals to create a healthier and renewed version of themselves, much like immersing in an onsen.
The core values of simplicity, elegance, connexion with nature, gratitude, and mindfulness that resonate within Japanese traditions also form a foundation for Onsen Wellbeing.
At Onsen Wellbeing, guests can expect a retreat experience that nurtures their mind, body, and soul. The centre is committed to providing a space where individuals can find balance, harmony, and a sense of peace, while embracing the teachings of yoga and the wisdom of Japanese culture.
