Meet Glenda Leah

Hi, I’m GlendaLeah, and yoga has been a transformative part of my life since I began practicing in 2021. In 2022, I completed my 200-hour yoga teacher training, which ignited my passion for helping others find balance and peace through yoga and holistic wellness.

In addition to my foundational training, I am certified as a Restorative and Yin Yoga teacher, bringing a deep focus on relaxation and stillness to my classes. As a Kripalu Yoga in the Schools Certified Teacher, I have specialized training in sharing yoga with younger audiences, fostering mindfulness and resilience in youth. My holistic approach extends beyond yoga—I’m a second-degree Usui Reiki and Holy Fire III practitioner, combining energy healing with movement to support physical, emotional, and energetic well-being. As a crystal healer, I integrate the power of crystals into my practice to promote grounding, balance, and restoration.

I’ve had the privilege of leading yoga sessions for Events DC: Day of Play two years in a row, teaching yoga for three seasons to the Clinton Grace Varsity boys basketball team, hosting Wellness Wednesdays at the DC Department of Employment Services and facilitating a variety of online classes and workshops tailored to busy lifesyles.

Why I Teach…

I came to yoga through my own longing for stillness. As someone who once measured life by productivity, I know what it means to crave presence over pressure.

My practice — and now my teaching — is about making space for what’s real, gentle, and grounding. I offer movement that’s accessible, breath that reconnects, and a space where it’s okay to show up exactly as you are.

This studio is for You if…

  • You’re navigating a full and often demanding life and find that you need a soft place to land when things feel overwhelming.

  • You’ve tried the “go hard” approach to wellness, but now you want something more honest and authentic that resonates with your true self.

  • You’re looking for genuine connection — not only to yourself, but also to something deeper and more meaningful that enriches your journey.
