Hey I'm Kayla, one of our co-founders and this is the raw truth about our brand and my story. Please give it a read...

"In all honesty, I didn't really want to be the face of this business – ADHD and rejection sensitivity will do that to a person. But I value integrity too much to hide behind a brand, especially in a wellness space full of style over substance and charlatans selling transformation they've never lived themselves. So here I am.

I grew up in and around water — a competitive swimmer and trained lifesaver. Water was always where I felt most myself. Calm, free, capable.

My path, since then, has taken me down many avenues, some enlightening, some painful, all contributing to my growth and wisdom. I left a lucrative corporate career to become an overworked, underpaid high school teacher because I recognised my purpose early; I truly see other humans, feel them deeply, am driven to help and can't switch that off. I taught internationally, moving to several different continents (yet always by the ocean), for nearly a decade, despite being a single mother, until I could no longer tolerate the indoctrination of the "education system" on vibrant young minds.

In 2019 I qualified as a yoga teacher and spent years facilitating meditation sessions and quietly mentoring others through some of the hardest moments of their lives. Then at the end of 2022 I had a near-fatal motorbike accident. 2023 was spent rebuilding my body, my confidence, and my sense of self. Water was central to that recovery. Not as a miracle cure. But as the one place my nervous system could finally exhale. Where my body remembered what freedom felt like before it had to relearn how to walk. That's why Wellness Gurus exists.

I collaborated with trusted experts and friends in the wellness community to build courses that are genuinely rigorous—not just spiritually meaningful but practically safe. I brought my background in pedagogy to ensure the content trains people to facilitate water-based wellness sessions responsibly, not just theoretically. Standards matter deeply to me, which is why our courses are accredited by the Water Practitioners Alliance.

The wellness space needs less performance and more substance. My soul's purpose is to be a force for good, to help others help others and to contribute to raising the vibration of what we're all capable of together. That might sound like a big dream. It is. But the water taught me that even the most exhausted body can find its way back to feeling alive. If you're still reading this, I'd be so grateful for you to become a part of this journey with me towards wholeness and helping humanity heal."

About Wellness Gurus

The global wellness industry has never been more vital. Rising stress, chronic illness, and a growing desire for deeper meaning are driving people to seek solutions that support mind, body, and holistic wellbeing.

At the same time, modern science and ancient wisdom are converging. Advances in neuroscience and health research are helping us better understand how stress, nutrition, and mindfulness practices influence the body and mind. As a result, many practices once rooted in ancient traditions — such as mindfulness and meditation — are now being integrated into Western education, healthcare, and wellbeing programmes.

 

This evolution is creating a growing need for skilled wellness practitioners who can guide others through meaningful change. People are seeking knowledgeable facilitators who can help them improve wellbeing, manage stress, and create healthier, more balanced lives.

Wellness Gurus exists to support this new generation of practitioners.


Through our professional wellness certification courses and training pathways, we empower practitioners with the knowledge, practical skills, and supportive community needed to guide transformative experiences and support the evolving global wellness movement.
