Yoga Testimonials

"I have attended Lei Lei’s prenatal yoga classes and am hoping I can keep going each week until I deliver. Lei Lei is extremely knowledgeable and her classes provide a balance of restorative and strengthening poses that leave me feeling both empowered and at peace. She creates an atmosphere that feels serene and sacred, as well as warm, inviting, and relaxed. I feel so fortunate that Lei Lei is teaching a prenatal class while I am in my third trimester. I am also looking forward to attending her postnatal yoga classes a few months down the road.”

- Heather

"Lei Lei is so incredible! Her knowledge alone is mind blowing but the way she moves, shows you how to move and the way you feel after is exactly what every women needs! As a new momma, one thing I’ve noticed is that my pelvis was uncomfortable for weeks. Lei Lei taught movements and ways to support myself postpartum at home and in my everyday life and practice and I noticed a shift in how not only my pelvis felt but my entire back right away! As mommas we truly need support not just emotionally but physically, so we can heal properly and serve our precious babies at ease, and not in pain!”

- Demi

“I took Lei Lei’s prenatal yoga class when I became pregnant. Her lifelong pursuit of movement, and breath work is evident in her teachings. Being a mother of two and a certified doula makes her classes so much more than simple modifications for pregnancy. Lei Lei innately knows how to prepare the body for the act of labor, by opening and strengthening the body and creating stamina for the marathon of birth. Not only that, she’s a wonderful healer, listener, and friend who takes a holistic approach to her students’ mind, body, and spirit. I truly believe my yoga practice fully prepared me for my 36-hour natural birth.”

“Lei Lei’s prenatal class was exactly what I needed. She was able to connect me with other moms so I didn’t feel alone. As well as help share grace and calmness while we prepare for labor. The positions were all approachable and reduced the stress I was holding on to. Her approach is welcoming to all levels and backgrounds. I am so grateful I was able to connect with Zoom as it made a big difference in my pregnancy!”
