Leslie embarked on her yoga journey in August 2020 amid the pandemic's peak and after sustaining a lower back injury from rigorous workouts. Seeking a change, she started practicing yoga, initially seeing herself as an unconventional practitioner until she discovered its inclusivity. Embracing the philosophy that yoga is for everyone, regardless of physical abilities, Leslie became a regular at Love More.
In 2023, Leslie completed her 200HR Teacher Training through Hot Asana University, further solidifying her commitment to yoga. Through her practice, Leslie has learned to move with purpose, deepen her spiritual connection, and embrace her inner strength. She advocates for inclusivity in yoga, using modifications and props to demonstrate its accessibility and empowerment.
Residing in Mandeville with her husband, two sons, and four dogs, Leslie finds joy in simple pleasures like breakfast with friends, cozying up with coffee for paranormal shows, and spending quality time outdoors with her family.
