S2 Ep. 3 - Living Yoga and Finding Inner Alignment | Leigh Khoo
In this episode, we welcome our second guest, Leigh Khoo.
[ About Leigh ]
Leigh found yoga 16 years ago in a tiny studio in Chinatown. As much as she enjoyed the dance-like flow of postures, it was the meditation practice after the asana sessions that really drew her in. Leigh has been teaching since 2013, and over the years, learned to understand and, more importantly, respect anatomical differences. Because of that, she believes in creating safe spaces that empower practitioners to step into their intuitive wisdom and practise according to their inner alignment.
Leigh's classes are embodied, intuitive and poetic, and a reflection of her life on and off the mat. She sees life to be the greatest teacher, with every moment serving as an opportunity to connect to our highest self and to live with intention, compassion and integrity.
Leigh now spends her days teaching Yoga, running retreats, and managing her latest venture, Meghalaya Shala. A cosy shala in Singapore, that brings light to the teachings of Yoga in ways that are accessible, holistic and empowering.
