Feel better. No incense.

Breathwork, cold water, movement and somatic therapy — run by practitioners, backed by science, and built for people who find most wellness spaces a bit much.


W H Y K A L A E X I S T S

Most people don't quit wellbeing.

They never start.

Too much of this world asks you to believe something first. We don't. Breath, cold water and movement change how your body handles stress — that's physiology, not belief.

So we run sessions the way we'd want to attend them. Plain language. Clear instructions. Nobody made to share their feelings with strangers. You turn up, do the work, and leave with two or three things that actually help on a Tuesday afternoon.

It works in a boardroom, in a sauna by the canal, and for the man who was dragged along and expected to hate it.

Who runs it

Two practitioners, not a platform

Every KALA session is led by Alex or Kate. You'll know exactly who is in the room with you.

Alex Abbott laughing while seated cross-legged on a yoga mat

Breath, cold water, movement

Alex Abbott

Alex claims to be a regular guy and can be found watching any sport in the pub or squashed against the door on the Northern line. He found freediving a few years ago and with it the link between breath and mental state. Now a certified yoga instructor and Level 2 freediver, he teaches breath control as a practical tool for calm and clarity.

Kate McQuilken seated with her arms folded over her knee

Somatic therapy, nervous system

Kate McQuilken

Kate works with the body and mind together to release tension and stress. With a background in yoga and somatic healing, she uses body-centred techniques to regulate the nervous system, lower stress and build emotional resilience.
