Owner Brenda Leifso
brenda leifso yoga is a yoga studio based in Kingston, ON. Classes are centred on the teachings of yoga, are breath-centred, and lead students to an awareness of stability, ease, and their inner experience. Classes are held in a beautiful, light-filled heritage home. Online and private lessons and other resources are also offered.
Brenda Leifso has completed two 200-hour yoga teacher trainings and further training in prenatal yoga, yoga for kids, yoga for pain, Deep Rest, Hips and SI, and is currently completing Somatic Strength. Her teaching humbly follows the lineage of Desikachar. As an editor and published author of three books, she brings her literary explorations and writing practice, which is deeply engaged with the more-than-human world of water, trees, and wind, the what-is, to every class. She currently operates Brick Books in her day work.
