My yoga studies began in 2000 at the Himalayan Institute in Honesdale, PA under Spiritual head Pandit Rajmani Tigunait, PhD, the successor to Swami Rama. I lived, worked, and studied there for 2 months. Since then, I have completed over 1000 hours of Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training and Continuing Ed. I consider myself to be a life-long student of the great spiritual tradition of yoga. I have been teaching yoga full-time in the SF/Bay Area since 2010, and have had the honor of teaching at Firefly Yoga Studio, Yoga Tree, Nest Yoga, Academy of Art University, International Orange, Glow Yoga & Wellness, Urban Flow, Zazen, Flying Yoga, You & the Mat, Lululemon, Esalen, Craigslist, Ubisoft, other corporate offices around San Francisco, and privately. Currently I am teaching in person at YogaKula Berkeley, Green Yogi Berkeley, Castro Room SF, and at Tishman Speyer. I also offer audio yoga and meditation classes on the online platform Patreon. I am thrilled to lead since 2015, an annual Happiness Yoga Retreat to Xinalani, Mexico.
I have been honored to serve on the Yoga Tree Teacher Training Faculty, Spring 2019 and Spring 2020. Most recently, I have served as a Guest Teacher in Laura Burkhart Yoga Teacher Training, 2022 and 2023.
I am very thankful to my teachers, students, colleagues, friends, and family for their support of my yoga love... With Love, Leila
