”This has been one of the best experiences in my 25 years as a client at the Teal Center!  In the past, other yoga classes and physical therapy have sometimes caused injuries to my neck, back and joints.  Leslie’s gentle yoga therapy, however, always has positive results.  I feel good afterward and particularly appreciate the exercises/stretches she gives me to perform on my own.  Her teaching method is highly individualized and never pushes me through pain to achieve some notion of perfection.  She is incredibly thoughtful and knowledgeable; her instruction is clear and includes an infinite variety of adjustments.  I have been able to pursue many of my activities, including running, weight lifting, pilates and even playing piano, with increasing ease thanks to Leslie.
