Leslie Hunter
Therapeutic Approach Yoga Studio
Leslie Hunter was born practicing yoga. Raised on a farm in a small rural Nova Scotia town, Leslie hung upside-down from the branches of apple trees to see the world from a different viewpoint. Attending Saint Mary's University in Halifax to study the Sociological make-up of human culture then moving to Toronto to study Public Relations and how to communicate with this culture, eventually led her to the Randolph Academy of Performing Arts, to practice the embodiment and performance of Truth.
Beginning her practice of Yoga Asana at Downward Dog yoga studio in Toronto, Leslie was eventually guided back to Halifax by her partner, where she started her formal Yoga Dharma Training at Therapeutic Approach. Completing a 500 hour teacher training, and continuing to teach and study with TAYS, Leslie became a Yoga Teacher Trainer and currently co-directs the Therapeutic Approach Hatha Yoga Teacher Training School Curriculum.
Leslie is a director of Yoga Atlantic, a yoga teachers network in the Atlantic Provinces; teaches daily group and private asana classes; and is dedicated to her Buddhist Meditation practice. She can be found offering Partner Yoga workshops across the province, guest instructing at Inner Sun Yoga Centre in Wolfville or teaching private yoga at her shared studio space, ONE Yoga on Spring Garden Road.
Leslie's commitment to the Three Jewels and the trust and love for her teacher, guides her own practice and teaching style, making every yoga class joyful, accessible and new.
That which matters the most should never give way to that which matters the least.
