Testimonials

info

Leah runs an all-inclusive retreat that delivers in all aspects. Beautiful yoga that was just the right balance of challenging and soothing. Leah is a skilled teacher and communicator, and I learnt a lot from her yoga classes. She also has great organizational skills and ensured that things ran smoothly. The retreat was held in a beautiful location...The vegetarian food was fabulous, varied and filling. Day trips were lots of fun and a great way to see some of the surrounding area. There was also time to simply relax by the pool. I highly recommend attending one of Leah's yoga retreats.

Leanne, Australia

I booked a retreat with Leah at the last minute, as I was already in the Greek islands where it was being run. Leah was accommodating and supportive from the start, answering questions, ensuring my arrival was easy, and informing me of the retreat. • Arrival: When I arrived at the port, I met some other students; everyone was open. When we arrived at the retreat, we were welcomed by a warm and caring instructor (Leah). From the start, it became apparent that the other students had been to other retreats with Leah, and they all spoke highly of the events and the teachings. • Accommodation: The views from my room were amazing, the facilities offered were 5-star, the staff couldn’t do enough for you, and the food was excellent; I could not fault any of it. It was a truly comfortable and well-cared-for environment. • The retreat: The content was diverse and engaging, and Leah's support was unwavering. I learned and grew in ways I hadn't anticipated, which was a truly inspiring and motivating experience. • Other participants: Five of the twelve students (41%) had completed the 200 YTT, and all wanted to attend Leah’s retreat. People had flown in from around the world to participate. That is a good advocation for the space Leah creates and the respect Leah has gained within a global community. The whole group bonded and had interesting stories to tell, and I’m sure everyone's paths will cross somewhere in the future. • The Teacher: It's hard to describe the knowledge, support, and space Leah provides for her students. Leah was always around to answer questions, and it was not unusual to sit for hours after breakfast, talking about yoga, life, and any topic people wanted to address. Summary: If you are looking for a yoga retreat with warm kindness and want to expand your yoga practice, I highly recommend connecting with Leah and finding out when and where the next retreat is being held.

Not only is Leah a fantastically gifted teacher, she is a beautiful person too. Her knowledge, passion and patience are utterly inspiring. If you can study in any way with Leah, do it, you won't regret it!

Leah’s teaching style is a combination of strength and grace, of high technicality and beautiful spirituality. Leah shares her knowledge selflessly and with great kindness...I feel so grateful to have met her, and would recommend her classes and trainings 100%!

Jeanne, France

The most amazing time! Leah Sugerman is one of the best yoga instructors I’ve ever had.

Cleopatra, USA

I have tried several times but when it comes to putting the words down, I’m getting lost. What I owe you is so much more than a “thank you” because I feel that what you taught me is the most valuable lesson I have learned in life. And for that, I am grateful. I opened myself up to the lessons you had to teach and what you taught has had a deep impact on me as a person. It is not something that I really understand, but I feel it happening. Thank you for everything you showed me and every lesson you gave. Thank you for being such a profound light in the world. And thank you for shining a little of that light on me. And thank you so much for having such a huge impact on me that I find myself tearing up as I try to write you a message of gratitude. Thank you so, so much for reaching into me in ways I don’t even understand.

Will, USA

Leah is a complete force of total goodness and she has a massive presence. Her classes flow with consummate ease and, as a new yoga teacher myself, I now appreciate that her cueing is super world class. Never once did I find myself wondering what to do with my body. No class was ever the same. She always taught who was in the room and gave us all the confidence to attempt more difficult postures through her skill and compassion. Whilst she is light-hearted, there is a beautiful spirituality underlining her purpose on the mat. It makes you think on a deeper level when you leave the mat and return to “life.” Every class is a journey. World class teacher, world class person. I have yet to come across a better teacher on many levels.

Mark, UK

Thank you Leah for being such a dedicated, insightful, and lovely teacher—I still can't believe how much I learned from you.

Ana, Croatia

Leah has this natural gift to kindly and professionally lead you toward and within yourself during the whole practice.

Estela, Costa Rica

Leah, my flow is forever changed thanks to your teachings.

Michelle, Jersey Channel Island

Leah is such an inspiring person with a deep knowledge of yoga as a science and a philosophy. She always knew how to encourage us with her creative and motivating teaching techniques. Her classes are super enjoyable and she's the sweetest teacher ever! <3
