Hi, I’m Leah!

For as long as I can remember, yoga has been a cornerstone of my life and now my focus lies in sharing the profound benefits of yoga with others.

As a professional dancer, yoga has been key to keeping my body strong and my mind grounded throughout my career. It’s my go-to for rejuvenation, personal growth, and daily inspiration.

I first completed my 200-hour Yoga Alliance certification through the esteemed Empowered Yoga School at Psycle London, training with respected instructors Gemma Soul and Chris Magee. I have since completed an additional 300 hours of advanced training through The Shala Yoga School in London, specialising in Yin Yoga, Yoga Nidra, Pregnancy Yoga, Post-Natal Yoga, Pranayama and Trauma-Informed teaching. I am qualified to the highest recognised level of 500-hour RYT with Yoga Alliance US. After teaching at some of London’s most celebrated wellness spaces — including Psycle, The Ned, and Oca — I am now based in New York City, offering thoughtfully curated classes that blend strength, softness and nervous system support.

Additionally, I provide tailored yoga programs to suit your needs, whether you're an office worker looking for stress relief or an athlete seeking to improve flexibility and focus. I can’t wait to meet you in class and support you on your yoga journey. Let’s discover the transformative power of yoga together.

Yoga is not about touching your toes, it's about what you learn on the way down
