In Their Own Words

Working with Leah Cullis opened my eyes to a new way of how I lead and live my life.

Through inquiry and one on one coaching, Leah helped me discover my own voice, embrace who I really am and be grateful for everything that I have in my life right now. Through the work I did with Leah, I realized that when I speak or do anything from love it is easy and I am able to connect with my loved ones, business partner, students, and peers in such a bigger way. I've also realized that doing less is being so much more especially where I am in my life right now. I am forever grateful for Leah as a mentor and a friend. -Kelly Boudreaux

In 2011,I knew I needed to make radical changes in my life.

It was a cold January evening when I was greeted by a beautiful woman who had a warm smile. I never would have thought that class with Leah would eventually become the catalyst that would change my life forever. After class, Leah introduced herself and encouraged me to attend her other classes. Leah never gave up on me. I eventually lost 100 pounds, grew my business, left old friends in the past and yes, I can now even do a headstand! I know that none of this would have been possible had it not been for Leah’s love was unwavering and constant support. I know that I can always come back to my mat and find the energy and love that Leah showed me that cold January evening. -Ashley Hunter

My learning experience with Leah has come at a perfect time in my life.

She has created a safe place for me to discover what serves me to be able to continue to grow as a student and leader in my community. I have practiced teaching more in 200-hour training with her than any other program I have participated in. Throughout the ups and downs of the last year, Leah has made herself open and available to listening and giving me tools be an effective teacher and student on my mat and in my life. This program has been a great balance of work and play and I encourage anyone that wants to grow as a human to take on this program. Leah has been a stand for me to be something bigger than I ever imagined and I am beyond grateful. -Megan Rainbird

Learning from Leah during my 200-hour training has been a privilege and inspiration.

I was drawn to Leah's openness and found her to be very relatable. Not being familiar with Baptiste yoga, I enjoyed the balance and physicality of her teaching style. As a result of this training, I feel more in control of my life. I feel more centered, clear and present to what is going on around me and being ok with it. I would absolutely recommend this training for others. I love being friends with such strong, beautiful and wise women. I am very thankful for this community that has become such a big support system in my life. The tools and friends through this training have been life changing. -Caitlin Wills
