About

ANN-MARIE MCKENZIE

I have a passion for guiding others on their wellbeing journey, from managing Spa and Wellness programs with AMAN Resorts to teaching Yoga and Pilates full-time. Through my teaching method I combine movement strategies and experience to support individuals to find their strength, balance and lifestyle.

I am well qualified and have a depth of experience working & teaching alongside Wellbeing experts and Physiotherapists. More importantly I have been on my own journey of life’s challenging roller coaster, I know what it is to struggle, surrender and to come out the other side.
