Our Story

The Cosy Cunning Folk offer a beautiful selection of holistic treatments, yoga & lifestyle workshops to guide you in gaining control over your mental and physical health. A family run business, we have used these tools and techniques to overcome a variety of issues,  traumas and self-limiting beliefs. They lay the groundwork for our sustainable health and happiness.  

With 21 yearsā€™ experience between us, we never stop learning and evolving with you. We offer you a safe, non-judgemental space. Here everyone is treated as an individual, with small classes we offer personal attention to ensure guidance as unique as you. 

We are on a mission to give you permission! Permission to take time to reset your system and find stillness, which seems lost today in such a busy, results-driven culture. Come along, surrender to self-care and soothe your soul. We love meeting new people!

Meet the Cosy Cunning FOlk

Hello,  Iā€™m Emmeline, mother of two, (three including the dog!) and founder of The Cosy Cunning Folk in 2018.

I am absolutely fascinated by the mind-body medicine and have spent 17 years on a journey towards this business. So much toxicity is normalised in our society and for many of us the lifestyle we are living is leading to sickness and disease. I gained a BSc Hons in Complementary Therapies in 2007, specialising in Aromatherapy and have been adding on modalities ever since including Reflexology and Indian Head Massage.

After personal trauma and a long period of panic attacks,  I finally found myself healing on a profound level through meditation. I trained as a teacher in 2019 with The British School of Meditation, eager to share this incredible practice. 

Since then I have completed training with The Museum of Happiness in London, qualifying as a Happiness Facilitator in 2021 ā€“ yes, you can teach happiness! Based on science-based positive psychology techniques, these tools are weaved into my workshops like a golden thread.  I am deeply passionate about showing people they can vastly improve their health and happiness baseline with a holistic approach. It can be daunting knowing where to start, we are always happy to offer guidance, please contact us with any questions big or small. 

Hello, Iā€™m Terence, husband to Emmeline and father of two (and dog obviously).

I joined The Cosy Cunning Folk in 2021 and love sharing this space as a family passion. My interest in yoga began in my mid twenties. Because intense exercise was part of my career, I began using poses as a way of warming up and down. I found a stillness in my mind during this time and decided I wanted more. 

While I practiced what I could sporadically, I didn't have the confidence to enter a yoga class until 5 years ago. It was then that I learned yoga wasn't about being the most flexible person in the room - there was no competition. I realised how yoga was very personal; it was considering and honouring what your body and soul need from that particular practice. After that I really committed to daily yoga, it was my meditation (which Emmeline had been hassling me to do for years!) and I found my close family and friends noticed a change in me. I found a connection to my deeper consciousness and began living a much fuller, healthier, happier life. 

I trained as a 200-hour instructor with Yoga Alliance Professionals in 2021 as I wanted to share my love of yoga and its many benefits. Yoga is for everybody; we all have different bodies and each pose can be adapted. While I have found a spirituality in yoga, the changes in mindset through this practice affect us all. Gymnastics and ego are left at the door, as I guide you with pure authenticity in this ancient practice
