Meet Kat our Wellness Coach & Facilitator
My journey into wellness began 18 years ago during one of the most challenging times of my life. I struggled with burnout and felt overwhelmed, I knew I needed support and wanted to explore more holistic approaches to wellbeing. A friend suggested yoga, and that first class became a turning point in my life.
I am a qualified yoga instructor and have taught for just over 15 years. I offer advanced pranayama (breathwork) techniques, and mindfulness practices.I am a Trauma Informed Nervous System Coach.
I specialise in yoga for equestrians helping horsey humans with their with their horse in and our of the saddle. I am continuously on a journey of self discovery and I love to be able to learn and discover new things. I have expanded my knowledge through exploring ancient wisdom traditions like Astrology and Tarot.
I understand that starting something new can feel daunting, but my biggest passion is to be able to make wellness accessible for everyone and to share what I have learnt. Let me help you on your journey.
Meet Alessandro our Energizer Coach & Facilitator
I’m an executive coach with 22 years of professional experience and an MBA in Organisational Psychology.
Through Align Life, I offer a coaching and learning methodology primarily to Senior Executives and CEOs who are questioning about their purpose in life and looking to be re-oriented.
My experience of working in highly complex changing environments and multicultural settings has shaped my knowledge and insights about change management.
My goal is to create and facilitate a revitalising space by adventuring on energising activities in live retreats that nurture self discovery and provide a sense of revival and renewal. I empower professionals to realign what “going with your gut” means to give a new definition of success.
I’m here to listen with empathy and to help you feel safe to share, and reflect, and to Align Life.

Event Planning & Experience
Corporate retreats are only as effective as the experience surrounding them. That’s where Ian and The Pink Elephant come in.
With years of experience delivering high-end private, corporate, and bespoke events, Ian brings a deep understanding of how people move through a space, how energy shifts across a day, and how small details shape big outcomes. His background spans catering, beverages, styling, décor, music, and live entertainment — giving him a holistic view of what truly makes an experience work.
Ian’s approach is rooted in thoughtful planning, calm delivery, and intuitive flow. He understands how to balance structure with flexibility, ensuring retreats feel purposeful without being rigid. From venue coordination and timings to atmosphere and guest experience, every element is considered with intention.
