I came to yoga for the physical—but I stayed for the transformation. After years of bodybuilding, I was searching for something to ease the tightness and chronic pain in my body. What began as a way to build strength and flexibility became a lifelong path of discipline, devotion, and deep inner work. Asana is powerful. It builds resilience, sharpens focus, and teaches the mind to stay steady under pressure. These aren’t just qualities that support meditation—they are the very foundation of it. The physical practice prepares us for stillness. It lays the groundwork for inner awareness, deep states of meditation, and ultimately, samadhi. My teachings honor the full depth of yoga—from the physical to the subtle. I blend challenging, intentional movement with breath awareness, energetic awareness, and yogic philosophy. Outside the studio, I’m immersed in daily study and practice, focusing on pranayama, meditation, and internal cultivation. I’m currently studying Nei Gong with Damo Mitchell of the Internal Arts Academy and Kriya Yoga through the Self-Realization Fellowship, founded by Paramahansa Yogananda. My formal training is in Ashtanga, Power Yoga, and Rocket Yoga, and I’ve had the privilege of learning from teachers who deeply understand both the physical body and the eight-limbed path. Their wisdom continues to shape my own practice and teaching, and I’m forever grateful for their guidance. I also hold a certification as a Chopra Health™ Ayurveda Teacher, trained by Dr. Deepak Chopra and his faculty, and weave Ayurvedic wisdom into how I live, move, and teach. At the heart of it all, I teach because yoga continues to change my life—and I believe it can change yours, too. Whether you’re here to build strength or seek stillness, you’ll find that the deeper you go, the more the practice becomes not just something you do—but who you are.

Hi, I’m Heidi Leigh and I’ve been teaching yoga for over 10 years, since moving to Winston Salem. I have three “kids” – Oliver Runyon Twist (5 yo), Pinky Alessandro Fiorucci (4 yo) and King George Phillip I (1 yo). I have been lucky enough to have an amazing lifetime before becoming a yoga teacher. Traversing the country from FL to CA to NC, I worked in the film industry as the personal assistant for Sandra Bullock while filming A Time to Kill, in Disney HQ and for the NHL Florida Panthers. Spending so many years in office jobs gave me such an appreciation for how yoga impacts the way my body feels and the importance of building movement into the day. My path to the mat started in 1995 when I was living in Los Angeles. My first class was with Bryan Kest and my relationship to the practice of yoga was an immediate love affair. 2005 was the year I went for my teacher training at the “Miami Beach Yoga Shala” and I had to navigate the storms on and off the mat as Katrina hit Florida. But life is full of changing weather and yoga has helped me build personal resilience. My classes are challenging and joyful, and never the same. I plan my classes around you and your fellow party people. My goal for each class is for you to discover new opportunities for your practice – working muscles, building strong postures, creating good energy and overall finding happiness for all. I will never ask you to go past the point of fun, but always find your own rainbow connection. Song requests are welcome and everyone has music veto rights (except when Prince is on). Disclaimer: I don’t always mean “last one”; I don’t know right from left; and I’m a middle child.
