The intentionality behind their flows and the specificity of their cues stand out especially and make for a grounded, integrated practice.

“Leyla and Eleni are two of our favorite instructors in Los Angeles. They both have such a welcoming energy and are extremely informed yogis. Leyla brings a unique and creative approach to her movement and instruction, getting your body into positions that challenge and surprise yourself. While Eleni brings a wholeness to every session. Diving deep into the meaning behind the practice, she connects the mind and spiritual with the physical, creating a complete experience. Together they create a caring, accepting space to practice where you will come out a stronger yogi and a better human.” - Liz & Loren

“I’ve had the privilege of learning yoga with both Eleni and Leyla for over a year and to say it’s been a transformative experience would be an understatement. Their teachings go beyond the mat. As a brand new beginner to yoga I was not confident at all in my practice. But with their help I have found a new love for the practice and even went on my 1st retreat hosted by none other than the two! Eleni and Leyla know how to push you during class in the most encouraging way. You go from saying “no way” to “oh wow I didn’t know I could do that!” I am always greeted with the warmest welcome when I walk into class and I always leave feeling my best! I’ve been able to take their teachings and apply them to my everyday life and I have so much more love for myself, my surroundings & community. I’m forever grateful for Leyla & Eleni <3” - Melissa
