Leanne Whiting, RYT
Leanne began practicing yoga in Hong Kong while training vigorously for adventure races, open water swims & outrigger canoe. It quickly become her teaching tool to let go, slow down & unwind from some of the overwhelming amount of stimulants of living in such a vibrant city.
Leanne uses her practice as a daily reminder to be light and playful, and to bring balance and mindfulness into her life. Teaching love & kindness through the integral practice of yoga has been a natural progression in Leanne's career. Leanne is grateful for her teachers who have, and continue to provide her with the support and inspiration to deepen her yoga practice both on and off the mat as an ongoing student and teacher.
Leanne incorporates the heart-oriented, therapeutic principles of alignment of the Anusara approach into her classes. She teaches with the intention that individuals leave class feeling strong and vibrant, so they too, can live each day to its fullest, embracing the goodness in everyone and everything.
Leanne is a teacher by training and owns Grow A Lotus Yoga. Her background in Child Development & Education support her intentions of Grow A Lotus Yoga as a means to teach yoga to students of all ages through creative movements in fun and playful ways. Leanne specializes in teaching yoga to children, teens and athletes.
