Leilani Jade grew up on the island of Hawai’i, but was born in Ōtautahi, Christchurch. She is trained as an Integrative Somatic Facilitator (300HR), Yin Yoga teacher (100HR), and Trauma-Informed Community Health Educator (MPH). As a conversational te reo Māori speaker, youth mentor, and holistic health advocate, she enjoys inspiring others along their wellness journey by helping to nurture a sense of balance, presence, and connection to ourselves and the world around us. Using somatic tools, holistic practices, and strength-based approaches, she combines both western science and Indigenous knowledge to honor the origins of yin yoga, while creating a class that’s truly unique to us here in Aotearoa, New Zealand.
