Meet Leila Kelley

Leila Kelley is a 500-hour registered yoga teacher specializing in mobility and myofascial release.

She is a certified prenatal and restorative yoga instructor with advanced training in fascia-focused movement, soft-tissue mobilization, functional strength and mobility, and embodied contemplative practices for mind-body centering.

She has led MFR workshops, strength and mobility-based vinyasa, and Functional Range Conditioning group fitness classes across New England and NYC area.

Her approach is deeply rooted in Myofascial Integrated Alignment and Stretching (MIA/MIS) and thoughtfully integrates traditional yoga with various movement modalities to help students build multidimensional strength and mobility for movement health and longevity.

As a mother of young twins - her greatest teachers - and working professional, she understands some of the many ways we are called to engage our physical, mental, and emotional resources.

Her aim as a teacher is to guide students towards their version of yoga, holding space for them to drop into their body, connect with their breath, and explore movement with the playful curiosity of a beginner’s eye. Through this practice of tuning in, students learn to listen to the subtle language of their body, deepening their relationship with the many layers of their being and cultivating an embodied practice that moves with them through all seasons of life.
