Yoga, Pilates & Wellness
at Buddhas & Wellness
Whether you're joining us for your very first class or you've been practising for years, you'll find a warm, supportive space in Bedlington where wellbeing comes before perfection.
From uplifting Yoga and Pilates classes to Reiki, holistic therapies and seasonal workshops, everything we offer is designed to help you slow down, reconnect with yourself and feel at home in your body.
We're more than just a yoga studio. Buddhas & Wellness is a welcoming space for movement, rest, self-development, spirituality and community, with something to support you wherever you are on your journey.
We believe the most powerful transformations don't happen overnight. They happen one breath, one class and one small step at a time.
Our Journey:
From Vision to Community
Our journey began when Paul, our owner, had a vision to create a peaceful sanctuary where people could practise yoga, slow down and reconnect with themselves.
Paul entrusted the heart of Buddhas to Poppy, our studio manager and yoga teacher, who helped transform that original vision into what it is today: a growing community of people who come together to move, breathe, rest, grow and support one another.
Today, Buddhas & Wellness is a welcoming yoga and wellness studio in Bedlington, Northumberland, where everyone is encouraged to come exactly as they are. Whether you're walking through our doors for the first time or returning for your hundredth class, we hope you leave feeling just a little lighter than when you arrived.
"Such a beauty tucked away in Bedlington. A well kept secret energy centre. A lovely yoga space; light and airy yet warmth seeps form every corner. I look forward to coming again."
Meet the people holding the space.
Meet the dedicated teachers and practitioners who make Buddhas & Wellness what it is. Our team brings together different styles, experience and perspectives across yoga and pilates.
From dynamic movement and traditional yoga practices to deep rest, meditation and energy work, each teacher brings their own approach while sharing our belief that wellbeing isn't about perfection. It's about finding practices that help you feel more connected, supported and at home in yourself.

Yoga started as a physical practice for me, but it quickly became the doorway to my own transformation - in body, mind and soul. As my practice deepened, I released unhealthy weight, rewired my negative mindset and started remembering who I really am beneath the noise.
Becoming a teacher was the most natural thing in the world; not because i know it all, but because I know what it's like to begin.
It's the greatest honour to hold space for others as they remember themselves too.

I started practising yoga over a decade ago, and what first began ad an on-off relationship with the practice has steadily become a consistent, grounding part of my life.
As a teacher I hope to guide you to explore your own unique connection to this transformative practice. Forever a student myself, knowing there is always more to learn, to explore and uncover.
Together we can explore how yoga can support us and how we connect with both our inner selves and the outer world.

I've been interested in holistic wellness for a long time, my yoga practice being part of this.
I choose to share the practice because I truly believe everyone deserves to feel the benefits of free flowing energy in the body, release of stagnancy and space for our breath to move.
Its difference is amazing when we offer ourselves an hour of mat time during the day or week.
I hope to meet you soon if you feel the call to join us, pop along.
Yoga Teacher & Sound Therapist
Jules Buchanan
I first tried yoga in 2014 after booking for a less impactful form of exercise following years of running and developing 'crunchy knees'. I was instantly hooked on hot yoga and embarked on a Yoga Alliance Professionals accreditation training course at the start of 2016.
After teaching at a hot yoga studio for 6 months I set up my own village hall class.
Fast forward to now and i've moved to Northumbria and established my business teaching yoga & sound therapy.
