She was previously a teacher on the Clinical Evaluation of the Yoga4Health programme, in partnership with Westminster University. Leanne strives to make yoga accessible for the many by working with organisations where it can be made free for those accessing it.

Leanne’s work is influenced by her own life’s journey through stress, burnout and more. Yoga initially came to yoga to support managing physical symptoms, but it quickly became a tool to support her mood and help her explore her own patterns of behaviour. This journey began with Mindfulness, led to yoga, to Yoga Therapy and now Integrative Yoga Psychotherapy. In her spare time Leanne spends time walking, reading, playing netball and exploring new places.
