Leah Richards is a 200 hour certified yoga instructor and a trained Reiki Practitioner. Her yoga certification is in Power Flow Yoga from Corepower Yoga and she got her Reiki training through Sandra Coyner. Leah currently teaches four different styles of yoga: Vinyasa Flow Yoga, Power Flow Yoga, Restorative Yoga, and Yin Yoga. She teaches at currently nine locations around the Chicagoland area in Kane & Dekalb County. She is a Northern Illinois University Alumni with a Bachelor’s Degree in Political Science.
Leah’s mission is to make yoga accessible to all different shapes, sizes, and ages. Being plus-size and living with a few medical conditions (Hashimoto’s disease, Narcolepsy, Fibromyalgia, and a severe vitamin d deficiency), she understands and respects everyone’s level of practice is different and offers many different variations of the different poses so everyone is successful in class. Leah would be honored and humbled to help guide you through your yoga journey. She cannot wait to help you experience all the wonderful benefits of yoga.
Leah completed a 10 year goal in the making by attending and finishing the Therapeutic Massage Program at Waubonsee Community College in May of 2016. She is excited to help people live happier and healthier lives through therapeutic massage just as massage has helped her live a, "normal," life.
With the combination of Yoga, Reiki, & Massage she hopes to provide total body wellness for the body, mind, and spirit.

Best massage I could imagine plus great conversation. My old bones and muscles haven't felt so sore and good in a looong time. Sleeping better and waking up refreshed.

Leah is just what my body needed. After 3 weeks of neck pain I finally scheduled to work with her. She spent time making sure she understood all aspects and layers of what may have been leading to my discomfort before we event got started. I walked in with referred nerve pain and I left feeling rested, calm, and comfortable in my body. Most importantly the referred never pain is gone and has not returned in 4 days - and my tinnitus was at the lowest volume in months too. Her open demeanor, knowing just where to work and with which pressure made this the healing and relaxing experience it was meant to be. My only regret is waiting so long to find relief through Leah. This is my new home for self-care at all levels.

Leah really tailors the massage to your specific needs and body/muscle issues. I felt like a new person. I was afraid I would be very sore & stiff the next morning, but I woke up feeling more flexible than I have in a long time.

Leah is fantastic. She found knots where I didn't know I had them, and once relieved, I felt so much better.

Leah has a way of finding all those knots you’re not aware of and getting them worked out making you feel so much more relaxed!

She listens very well and picks up on body ‘cues and reactions’ to understand where/how to address the problem. Felt wonderful afterwards. Her concern for before and after care is amazing 🤩
