Leila White

E-RYT 200, E-RYT 500 + YACEP | ACE Certified Group Fitness Instructor | AFAA Certified Personal Trainer | exhale Certified Barre Instructor

Leila has been living and breathing the yoga and fitness world since 2001—as a teacher, teacher trainer, workshop facilitator, group fitness director, and studio manager across some of the most respected health clubs and boutique studios in the industry.

What has kept her in this work for over two decades isn't the certifications (though she has plenty of those). It's the moment a student discovers something about themselves that they didn't know existed. Leila teaches from that place—with accessibility, humor, and a deep belief that every person who walks through the door already has everything they need.

Leila is currently pursuing a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, with a vision of integrating yoga as a healing modality into clinical practice—and ultimately training other clinicians to do the same.

Her teaching spans a wide range of formats: vinyasa, power, yin, restorative, yoga sculpt, barre, cycling, and strength-based modalities. As a teacher trainer and workshop provider, she works on topics such as advanced cueing, dynamic languaging, theming, and the intersection of personal vision and teaching voice.

For Leila, training teachers is an extension of teaching itself—the work is always about helping people step more fully into who they already are.
