MEET THE FOUNDER
MEET LEAH.
Licensed esthetician. Educator. Founder of the only IPHM-accredited Face Yoga training institute in the United States.
I built The Face Yoga Institute because I wanted a place where beauty, wellness, and mindfulness can blend — and where individuals called to teach this work could be trained to find the beauty within themselves first, then carry that light to others.

Matthew 5:14-16 "You are the light of the world...let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven."
