Combining the oils with acupoints was a big "aha" as well as the oil meditations. It made me realize how much there is to discover, the many ways that the oils can be supportive within a yoga setting and that the possibilities with these incredible oils are endless."

Anonymous Graduate of Aromatics for Yoga 2025
"So many Aha moments. I feel like I have...started embedding a personal oil and yoga practice. Understanding that my goundedness and experience with the oils makes a huge difference in the authenticity and power of what and how I share. Such an enriching environment and deep immersion in to a very beautiful emotional, physical and spiritual practice. I now see the oils sat on their shelves as powerful allies who I can call upon at any time. I am in LOVE! I Feel like I can start creating seasonal classes. Feel more confident to start sharing within cancer setting - this is a BIG deal as was totally freaked about this previously."

Isabel Hirschnigg Graduate of Aromatics for Yoga 2024
"Thank you very much Amelia, you are a great teacher! I have been given the tools to offer Aroma Yoga. I feel like I am at the beginning of a deeper journey, I feel very inspired and I’m very thankful for having you as a teacher. I would recommend...this course (which) opened new opportunities for teaching yoga and to deepen my yoga experience as well as the experience of my students. I feel I have something very special to offer "Yoga in combination with Oils."

Anais Alvarado Teacher and Studio Owner
"People love the classes with oils. They have mentioned the oils add a layer to their practice that is very personal and very helpful. They’re able to connect with their breath for longer and remain focused for longer. The oils also bring a sense of luxury to the experience on the mat...All classes I taught with oils before have been far better attended than those where I didn’t use the oils."

Evie Moller Yoga Teacher
"A key benefit of the Aromatics has been setting me apart from other teachers, showcasing a point of difference in my class and offering something new. The Aromatics have helped to define and pinpoint my yogic philosophy curriculum as well as provide a connection to Chinese Medicine and energies. By being able to pair particular oils with yogic philosophy or even seasons, my students have had an additional tool to help them understand the theme of the class and engage both physically and mentally. "

Patricia Zafra Yoga Teacher and SunKiss Yoga Retreats
"The benefits of aromatics in yoga have been remarkable for my students. Many not only report feeling more grounded and relaxed but they have also shared that Aroma Yoga has become their favourite regular practice. Personally, I've noticed a profound shift in the energy of my classes when using aromatics. There's a sense of tranquility and serenity that permeates the space, allowing for a more profound and transformative experience for both myself and my students."

Eman, Yoga Teacher and Student
"I LOVE the pace, structure of Amelia’s classes and her thoughtfulness. Her knowledge of essential oils is incredible which really helps in going deeper into my own practice in both, the physical and emotional levels. I find Essential oils incredibly helpful in connecting better to myself in the practice. I particularly remember a series on chakras when we worked with different oils and it made the practice and the theory so clear and easy to understand but also feel on a much deeper level. Thank you (Amelia) for being there and for your wisdom and energy!

Jools, Yoga Student
"“Amelia has a minduful style that balances being inclusive, respectful and compassionate. She makes people feel valued and that their presence matters...The oils elevate the practice, bringing together the inner and outer senses. I find this to be therapeutic and nourishing my emotional balance. The combination of yoga and essential oils brings me back to myself and centres me."

Yoga Student (Anon)
"I love Amelia’s classes because combines her knowledge of various types of yoga to create an experience that is unique. I’ve never experienced a practice like this before and that’s why I keep coming back. I like that it feels like a holistic practice not focussed on only one element of yoga. The oils enhance the experience and I feel more connected to the practice as I am adding another sense to it. The oils also help me to focus my mind at times!"
