+ Leah's Biography

Leah was initially drawn to yoga because of the deep relaxation and peace that came with savasana ('nap' at the end)! The therapeutic nature of the strengthening, stretching and balance that came with yoga is what held her as an avid yoga student for many years. She completed her 200 hour yoga teacher training at Beloved Yoga. She brings her background training in massage therapy and meditation into her yoga classes.

I did many prenatal yoga sessions here with Leah and they were fabulous! I plan to go back for postnatal yoga as well. I also had one prenatal and one postnatal massage at The Metta Center. I highly recommend their services for tired mommas and mommas-to-be. Instructors and massage therapists are respectful, great listeners, and tuned in to pregnant clients’ specific needs.

Leah and David are amazing yoga instructors, kind, caring and attentive. They both offer amazing yoga classes that have really helped my mind to focus. Amy is an excellent massage therapist and she has really helped me with some back pain. The Metta Center is a wonderful place with so much to offer each individual based on their needs. We are all the lucky ones to have such a wonderful place to go to.
