Hello. I'm Leanne. ​
I'm passionate about sharing the full spectrum of yoga, mindfulness, and self-compassion practices
because I have witnessed their profoundly positive impact on my own life.
​
As a child, I experienced numerous losses and traumas.
I did not have support systems in which to find refuge, guidance, and healing
so I carried these traumas into adulthood.
​
In my late 40s, Yoga became the safe space in which I could begin to accept myself,
with all my wounds and imperfections,
and treat my body, mind, heart, and spirit with care and kindness.
​
Yoga lead me to Mindfulness, Self-Compassion and Grief work. ​
I'll be forever grateful for the healing I have experienced as a result of this path.
I'd love to share it with you if you could use support.

Who am I?
Am I my roles? Am I my circumstances? Am I my accomplishments or perceived failures?
I do know, I’m a spiritual being, a student of Earth-school,
a female in my middle years, who’s learning to accept the realities of aging.
I am a mother of three adult children, whom I love with all my heart.
I am a survivor, healing from a lifetime of wounds.
​
I am a Yoga and Mindfulness Teacher
I share these practices because I wholeheartedly believe in their ability
to create health & well-being in Mind, Body & Spirit.
(E-RYT 200, RYT 500, YACEP)
I am a Certified Holistic Coach
As a coach, I'm here to listen, witness, support,
assist your self-exploration, and help guide you toward
a balanced healthy life experience.

I am a Songwriter
Songwriting was born out of my desire to heal from a lifetime of challenging circumstances.
I have written and recorded a few of my original songs, which you can find
on sites like Spotify and YouTube.
​
I am a Dancer
Dancing was my refuge as a child. I still find comfort and joy in moving to music.
I was a professional dancer for a few years and taught dance, (ballet, jazz, modern) for over 20 years.
​​​
I am a Nature Lover
I do what I can to care for the Earth and all her living beings.
​
I am a playful spirit
