LEANNE ANTONIA WELLBEING

I am a Yoga Therapist and yoga, Mindfulness and breathwork facilitator based in South West London who specialises in delivering wellbeing sessions for community and health organisations, companies, and individuals seeking 1:1 support in the form of Yoga Therapy and Integrated Yoga Psychotherapy

​

I originally graduated in 2011 with a BA in Economics and Politics from School of Oriental and African Studies and spent the following years working my way through London's events and hospitality industries. It was in this phase of my life that I became unwell and overworking led my body to complete burn out. While challenging at the time, this process gifted me with realisation that my work-life balance was unsustainable for myself, and so I retrained and moved to full time teaching in 2018

Becoming a yoga teacher and now Yoga Therapist has allowed me to build myself a life in greater alignment with my values, share the practises that had helped me find my inner balance with others keen to learn, and build my resilience to the ups and downs of life

TRAINING

​

I've undertaking trainings in Vinyasa, Hatha, Yin and Pre and Post Natal, Mindfulness and Trauma Sensitive Yoga. I've additionally trained with the Yoga in Healthcare Alliance to deliver their Yoga4Health programme

 

In recent years I have undertaken the 580 hour Yoga Therapy training with The Minded Institute and have finished my contact hours on my Integrated Yoga Psychotherapy training. I am now accruing client hours to support those who would like to bring in traditional more traditional talking techniques into their Yoga Therapy to support themselves

WHAT I OFFER
 

I am primarily a Yoga Therapist, offering private therapy online and in person to those in select South West London locations. I have some very limited capacity to take on new clients, working with those who want to directly support their mental and physical health conditions in a holistic way using the wisdom of yoga to illuminate their inner worlds. I also wear this hat in healthcare settings such as the NHS and CDARS, supporting clients through these services

As a yoga and meditation teacher I work with clients 1:1 to support general goals of flexibility, stress management and overall wellbeing. All my spots for 1:1 yoga are currently full

 

I teach a weekly Yin Yoga class at Ikshana Wellbeing in Clapham on Wednesdays and a weekly Yoga for Focus class at Serenity Space in Southfields on Thursdays

​

In the past I have offered businesses regular and one off wellbeing classes to support employees holistic wellbeing. I am currently only available to offer workshops and talks to businesses due to availability

As a wellbeing speaker I deliver various talks and workshops and staff wellbeing sessions to businesses, schools and healthcare settings. I believe that knowledge is powerful, and I aim to simplify and educate people around accessible techniques to improve their wellbeing so that they can be an active participant in a healthy life. I am particularly keen to partner with more settings that are already providing support for others

​

This work enables me to offer me more capacity to work with vulnerable groups in community settings

​

-

Whatever mind-body practise you undertake with me it will be infused with mindful awareness of the present moment, with an aim of bringing the nervous system into balance and bringing awareness to the innate connection between all parts of our being as we discover ourselves. I am keen to work with people 1:1 who are interested in getting to know themselves at a deep and holistic level
