Leila’s approach to fitness is shaped by over 25 years of study, practice, and the guidance of incredible mentors. Early in her career, she had the unique opportunity to work with celebrity trainer Jim Karas at JKPT, where she spent time training at the gym at Oprah’s Harpo Studios.
Wanting to dive deeper into how the body heals, Leila later spent several years in Florida learning from physical therapist Dan Hellman. The golf community highly respects his work with athletes, including his use of the ELDOA method to support Tiger Woods’ recovery. To truly understand spinal care and help clients find relief from chronic back pain, Leila eventually studied directly under Dr. Guy Voyer, DO, the osteopath who created the ELDOA method.
Leila holds a Bachelor of Science degree and is a certified Eldoa Trainer, Animal Flow instructor, & C.H.E.K Institute Practitioner. Guided by a genuine desire to help her clients, friends, and family live comfortably, she has built a versatile toolkit. She is certified in a variety of modalities, including Animal Flow, strength training fundamentals, pre- and post-natal fitness, pelvic floor health, and so much more.
As a certified specialist in women’s hormonal fitness and health, she is deeply passionate about supporting women through every stage of life—from pre- and post-natal fitness to targeted strength training that helps women navigate perimenopause and menopause with energy and strength.
Most recently, she has integrated energy healing into her practice through new certifications in Reiki, allowing her to support her clients’ wellness on an even deeper level.
ELDOA exercises utilize specialized, postural techniques that gently create space and relieve pressure within specific joints of the body—most notably the spine. By using precise physical positioning, these movements create natural tension in the surrounding fascia to stabilize one vertebra while encouraging the one above it to lift and normalize.

Leila is a rockstar! I can't say it any other way. I came to Leila early this year looking to help me tone up since I had lost some weight last year by changing my diet, but hadn't incorporated a steady workout routine. I was looking to lose some more weight, but more importantly gain muscle and look/feel better overall. Six months later, I feel stronger and more confident than I've ever felt!
