Leo works with methods both ancient and contemporary, to help clients reach their highest goals in life. Alongside the traditional practices of Yoga and Yoga Therapy, Leo works with the method of Somatic Experiencing, to guide clients in releasing stress, overcoming crisis, and living a truly embodied life. Leo’s principal interest is in bringing clients to a sense of wholeness, freedom, and personal power.

Leo teaches yoga for all, with the intention that the essence of yoga can be accessible and truly valuable for everyone. He specializes in personally tailored yoga teaching, making the rich tradition of yoga meaningful in a clear and contemporary manner. His approach is always to develop a real understanding of individual needs, supporting each person to find their own way in yoga.  

Leo began yoga in his teens, and after graduating in studies in Architecture, has devoted his life to the study, practice and teaching of Yoga and the healing arts.  Leo’s yoga training has been principally with teachers and schools in the direct line of Krishnamacharya: Pattabhi Jois (Ashtanga Yoga), Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram (Viniyoga), Srivatsa Ramaswami (Vinyasa Krama Yoga), and A.G. Mohan, Indra Mohan & Ganesh Mohan (Svastha Yoga).  Leo is a registered Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, and has completed extensive post-graduate studies in SE with Peter Levine, the founder of the method.

Leo currently holds a private practice in London, working with clients from all walks of life.
