A journey into your authentic self
The Story behind Kappatalize Wellness
Kappatalize Wellness was started by Helen Reed in 2011, where she ran holistic fitness classes and helped thousands of people transform their approach to their health and well being.
Her fitness classes were run in the local parks and beaches of the St George and Sutherland Shire regions in the South of Sydney.
Helen continued to expand her love for learning, and evolved into connecting each of her experiences as a Master Group Fitness Trainer, Personal Trainer, Nutrition and Health Coach and combined this with her professional experience as a change consultant to drive results and shifting mindsets.
Helen then flowed into the world of mindfulness, yoga, and meditation - a personal journy of self discovery that spans over 15 years. Helens journey has been and will continue to be a profound odyssey of connecting with herself, cultivating self-love, acceptance, compassion, and kindness. This part of her journy began when she confronted her struggles with anxiety and seasonal depression, realizing she had lost touch with herself and the life she wanted to lead. Opting for a natural path over medication, Helen embarked on a challenging yet deeply rewarding journey of healing and growth.
This journey led her to study Mindfulness and Meditation under a Buddhist monk for three years, becoming a qualified Yoga Teacher (YTT), Breathwork Coach, and Circle Facilitator. Over the past five years, she immersed herself in the practice of Tantric Yoga, eventually becoming a certified Tantra Embodiment teacher in 2023.
She found that connecting body, mind, soul and spirit helped people not only manage their physical health and wellness, however their emotional, mental and psychological wellness.
She evolved Kappatalize Fitness into Kappatalize Wellness in 2019, to focus on a more holistic approach to living each day mindfully, with a healthy mind and body.
Helen's programs include slow flow movement, restorative and yin yoga classes, mindful meditation classes, womens circles, workshops and retreats, and, mens mobility, flexibility and movement.
Helen believes that we are all experiencing our lives through a never-ending journey.
“When we learn to immerse ourselves into mindful practices, we learn to live and move about our lives with balance, flow, calmness and fluidity - great for our bodies and minds”

I’ve gained so many benefits from the classes & Helen’s guidance from strength & flexibility to calmness, stillness & sleeping deeply. Your mind, body & spirit will love you & the classes
★★★★★ | Kate Barnard from Illawong
Over the last 10 years I have practiced yoga and meditation with some extremely experienced and highly regarded practitioners both in Australia and overseas. We are so incredibly fortunate to have Helen in our local area as she is up there with some of the best that I’ve resonated with. I have already seen great results in my areas of focus and have been extremely impressed (and grateful!) that she really takes the time to get to know her clients. She shows a genuine interest in your overall health and wellbeing and looks for ways that she can help enhance that.
★★★★★ | Janet Ceravalo from Illawong
I’m a middle aged woman that was looking for improved fitness & well being. I tried the gym, which made me feel old & self conscious. I’ve found my perfect outlet with these classes. As a beginner Helen has helped me working around my bodies injuries, my strength & fitness is Improved. The classes are friendly & inclusive where you move at your own pace & there is a wonderful sense of community. Definitely worth trying

a big thank you does not measure up to how grateful I am for being able to attend your very beautifully arranged Women’s Circle
Michele Bassett from Illawong
I entered the circle with so much trepidation, I have been so worried about this morning from the moment I paid my attendance fee. Even driving to you this morning the nausea was intense, but I had to take this giant step! It’s really not something I would have previously signed up for. However, I trusted that your intentions were to hold a safe space for us. Universally guided, I made my way into your space today to put so much behind me and to let it all go. To allow myself the space to trust again.
My story is long..so entering the room of women this morning was terrifying to say the least.
However today has taught me that I can trust women, that I can feel part of circle of women without judgement and I can share in their pain and in their happiness and share my pain and my happiness with them without their rejection. The circle you created today felt comfortable, warm, inclusive, free, happy, easy, gentle, kind and encouraging. For this I thank you. To the wonderful women that I got to share with I thank them too.
Today opened my heart in a way I have not been able to for some time, it’s brought my attention to areas that need work and areas that I have forgotten to give myself credit for. So from this sceptic, I will be encouraging those around me to participate in your next circle. It’s been phenomenal 🥰 and a morning very dearly cherished.
You are a very special soul. You are incredible.

This was my first time participating in a womens circle and so i attended with an open heart
Linda O from Menai
I was attending with an open heart, ready to experience something I knew would connect me with like minded women. And I was not disappointed.
As I entered perform a welcome and cleansing, asking me to embrace the experience. Some tasty refreshments allowed everyone to socialise for a short while before we entered Kappatalize Wellness Zen Den to commence the circle.
The room felt calm, warm and filled with feminine energy. For the next two hours we were filled with gentle prompts to open our hearts, minds and body to an empowering, releasing energy through breath work, mindfulness, exploration of our thoughts, both negative and positive, and an invitation to connect with our female bodies with a beautiful song playing that allowed me to move and feel free and connected to myself.
An amazing crystal healing was the highlight of the evening for me and surprised me with the energy I could feel.
A truly amazing evening that I would recommend to any woman who wants to connect with their mind, body and soul within a friendly, safe space. Thank you for a truly beautiful experience.

I did something today that firstly put me right out of my comfort zone. I attended a sacred women’s circle.
Janet Ceravolo, Illawo
While I didn’t know what to expect I have to say it was a wonderful experience. Put in a circle of strangers & exchange stories, experiences, our struggles & successes. I found it so empowering & enlightening to celebrate being a mother, wife, daughter, friend & to appreciate juggling our busy lives.
So grateful to have taken the time out to be part of such a powerful celebration of women. No negativity, no right or wrong just support.
If I can encourage any of you to experience such a day I’m certain you won’t regret it. Now I would never think to do anything close to this, especially with strangers.
I can’t express how natural it all felt. It was all on your own choice. If you chose to share or chose to participate in activities.
A room full of strangers all ages & backgrounds to connect & gel together in such a short time was surprising to me.
For those who know me I am all light & love with a lot of go f**k yourself so this is a heart felt post.
Thank you Helen Reed for guiding me through a wonderful Sunday morning 🙏❤️
