'The Practical Mystic'
Hi! I’m Leslie, your guide in all things yoga. It's my mission to support you on the journey to awakening and to illuminating the very best in you.
I hold space for you to BE you. And I offer you a journey into the sacred - for your self-care, self-love, and self-enrichment.
Yoga is a deeply nourishing practice and, when practiced with sensitivity and awareness, it can support you not only in feeling better in your body, but in connecting to all the layers of your being.
In this retreat I will share with you how embodied spirituality, the practice of yoga and meditation, and an openness to the rich inner landscape of the soul have transformed my life and how it can support your journey to yourself too!
I can't wait to spend this day with you!
"Leslie has a depth of training, experience, and understanding that have been of great benefit to me as a student and teacher of yoga. I highly recommend her as a teacher and mentor."
Maddie Adams, Portland, OR
"Leslie has such a deep wisdom and a wealth of knowledge to share. She embodies yoga and has given me a very strong yogic foundation from which to grow."
