Relax, release,
re-energise.

What we offer…

Forest Bathing

Immerse yourself in beautiful handpicked woodlands as Amanda guides you through gentle sensory journeys of mindfulness and deep nature connection through the trees and beyond.

Love Chocolate

Experience the bliss of creating and devouring your own chocolate masterpieces in a group chocolate-making workshop. Learn, play and indulge in molten chocolate and take home lovingly wrapped creations.

Who we’ve worked with…

  • "The laughter workshop was fantastic – Amanda’s energy was both gentle and dynamic, exactly what our clients needed to have the confidence to take part. I would highly recommend this if you want to put some laughter back into your life!"

    Threshold (Brighton Housing Trust)

  • “Thank you Amanda for such a wonderful experience - truly connecting with the wonders of nature in such a beautiful place, being fully immersed in the mindfulness exercises you invited us to share. A treat for the senses.”

    K Casey, Sheffield Park & Gardens

  • "A first-class, supreme experience from start to finish. Amanda's engaging, intelligent, humorous personality shone through and her attention to detail in all aspects of the chocolate-making workshop made it a truly memorable experience. Thank you!”

    Gareth Derrig, HR - St. Mary's University, London

  • “We didn’t expect to be laughing out loud for so long and so hard! We all agreed we felt uplifted and relaxed which carried on throughout the day.”

    Bernadette Ratcliffe, Occupational Health Administrator – East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service

  • "It was very special to stand outside and hear laughter I have never heard before. I have been working together with most of these people for 20-25 years… Well, keep up the good laughing and thank you again."

    Marit Krogstad, Higher Executive Officer – University of Tromso, Norway

  • "Thanks very much for today Amanda. We all really enjoyed our workshop….so different and such fun!! Hope to be able to see you again sometime. Take care, be happy!"

  • “Wow! That was an amazing experience. We did the Forest Bathing with Amanda and it was so cleansing and restorative!”

    Forest Bathing Participant, Sheffield Park & Gardens

  • “Amanda Bate provided an entertaining and illuminating launch to the second of our two day events – a fantastic alternative to the usual 'ice-breaker' type events. Her energy and enthusiasm was infectious and really set-us up for the day ahead!"

    Dave Morris, Head of Communications – Ernst & Young

  • “Amanda is oozing with energy and life! I left the session feeling wonderfully light-hearted and in higher spirits than I had been in a long time. Days later I am still in high spirits and heartily recommend the Laughter Gym to anyone who needs to remember how easy it is to laugh.”
