I am passionate about pilates because it's a sport without competition and pressure, but about physical and mental health, which directly affects our immunity, which is most important for the time we now live in. I enjoy it when clients can relax and are happy while doing exercise. I was born in South Africa and raised in Germany. I moved back to SA in the late 90s and worked for a while as a nursing sister in ICU before I started another career in the fitness industry. Besides teaching aerobics and personal training, I was a part of a hip-hop dance group. I got introduced to pilates due to an injury in 2001, and decided to study the art of pilates at Renee Watson Pilates Studio, with a good friend and mentor. I completed my teacher training in 2003. My husband, Chad, a Chiropractor and former professional triathlete, and two children, ages 14 and 16, moved to New Zealand to join family in April 2021. I love the outdoors, animals, and especially horses, competing in long-distance riding.

I'm passionate about movement and plant-powered nutrition, with a deep appreciation for nature and a commitment to sustainable living. My love extends to all beings—animals and humans alike! I hold certification in Plant-Based Nutrition from the Dr. T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies and am a certified instructor of the Bodylight®️ method, which beautifully fuses Pilates, yoga, qigong, and mindfulness. Currently, I'm completing my Polestar matwork Pilates teacher training and absolutely loving every moment of both practising and teaching. I'm excited to connect with you, share knowledge and wisdom, and enjoy some great conversations along the way.

Born to immigrant parents under a bright African sky Leila at the age of three was introduced to Classical Ballet which has always been a pinnacle and scaffolding of all other movement therapies and disciplines she has studied. At the age of 21 whilst living in Mexico Leila embraced the Siddha Yoga Path. A spiritual path of discipline and a path imbued with grace. Hatha Yoga was her first introduction to a physical yoga practice, focusing on postures and breathing to channel vital energy sources. All the while raising a family, travelling the world and finally settling in Auckland, New Zealand where by absolute chance ( or not) she found herself in a Kundalini Yoga class. This was a pivotal moment as in her own words” This was everything I ever wanted from a yoga practice! Music, breath, postures and meditation allowing a deep inward journey. A true dance of body, mind and soul” Leila trained at the Golden Yogi and dedicated herself to the transmission of this ancient and powerful form of Yoga. Teaching Kundalini Yoga provides a safe space where people are able to maximize their creative potential. Leila is a Classical Homeopath , Holistic Healthcare Professional and Lecturer.

I first discovered yoga in my 20's, but it wasn't until my 30's and after the birth of my second child in 2016 that yoga truly became a life line. Navigating post natal depression and chronic back pain, not just for movement but for for healing. With over 14 years of personal practice and a teacher training with John and Nicole Allen, I now offer classes that blend Hatha, Vinyasa and Breathwork - creating a dynamic and holistic experience. As a naturally compassionate and empathetic person and a good listener, I strive to create a space where students feel heard, supported and free to explore their own journey.
