  • We love our Way to Be humans.

    “I have been practicing yoga for over five years. After two years of virtual classes following Covid, I was very hesitant to go back into a studio but from the moment I walked into Way to Be Wellness and Yoga, I knew I’d found a safe space. From her kindness to her inclusiveness to her innate understanding of the practice, Leslie runs a studio that is head and shoulders above the rest. Whether you are new to the mat or a committed “yogi”, this amazing woman whom I am now proud to call my friend will instantly make you feel welcome, comfortable and challenged. I am a seasonal resident of Wells who spends her entire winter counting the days til I can return to this studio.” - L. Shapiro, Peabody, MA + Wells, ME (WTB 6 month member)

    “Over the past three years, I've had the pleasure of practicing yoga under Leslie's expert guidance, on a weekly basis both remotely via Zoom and in person during my vacation visits to Maine. Initially drawn to her class at a resort, I was immediately hooked by her engaging teaching style. Although I practiced Martial Arts for a number of years, I had no yoga experience, but Leslie's approach was gradual, adaptive and welcoming, starting with basic poses and progressively introducing more complex flows. She has always been sensitive to my evolving needs and abilities, challenging yet supportive, and encouraging me to challenge myself. Following a knee injury from martial arts, Leslie’s thoughtful modifications aided not just my physical rehabilitation but also bolstered my mental resilience.

    Leslie’s philosophy on yoga extends beyond the physical practice—it is about fostering a deeper understanding of oneself, creating mental and physical spaces for growth, and recognizing our bodies' fluctuating capacities. Her teachings on patience, self-acceptance, and the fluid nature of personal progress have profoundly influenced other areas of my life.

    I wholeheartedly recommend Leslie to anyone looking to explore or deepen their yoga practice. Her ability to adapt to individual needs, combined with her deep understanding of yoga's holistic benefits, makes her a wonderful guide on this journey. Whether you're a beginner or looking to enhance your practice, Leslie's expertise and supportive nature will undoubtedly enrich your yoga experience.”
