I’ve been practising yoga for over 15 years, and Aleasia stands out as one of the best flow yoga instructors I’ve ever had. Her teaching style is incredibly clear and grounded in deep knowledge of the practice. Each class is thoughtfully crafted and never the same as the last, which keeps things fresh and engaging. Aleasia has a unique ability to challenge your resilience while maintaining a warm, positive energy that motivates you to push your limits—always with the gentle reminder to listen to your body. Her classes strike the perfect balance between strength, mindfulness, and creativity. I consistently leave feeling stronger, more centred, and uplifted. If you’re looking for a yoga teacher who brings clarity, inspiration, and variety to every session, Aleasia is truly exceptional.

In over 50 years of martial arts training, I’ve only met a handful of instructors who truly inspire me—and my yoga coach is one of them. Aleasia’s yoga classes are more than just yoga sessions; they’re an energising mix of challenge, skill-building, and fun. She has a rare ability to read the room—pushing each person to their own limits, offering multiple variations for every pose, and knowing exactly when to ease off if fatigue sets in. She doesn’t let me slack off (and I appreciate that!), but she always makes sure the work is achievable, whether you’re a beginner or highly experienced. The result? Every participant leaves feeling stronger, more capable, and more confident. Her energy fills the space, her passion lifts the room, and her teaching style makes you want to come back week after week. If you’re looking for a yoga instructor who will inspire you, challenge you, and help you grow and improve, Aleasia’s the one.

I LOVE Aleasia’s Vinyasa class. It’s a beautiful, safe place where you can tune into your body and breath, and tune out any internal or external noise. Aleasia creates a supportive and soft space for you to land and find calm, regardless of how busy or noisy your day was. It’s a profoundly moving experience that will leave you feeling grounded and restored, every time. Thank you.

I love attending Aleasia’s yoga and barre classes. Her upbeat energy is infectious, and her passion for building strength shines through in every session. It’s clear she puts great thought into planning her classes. She genuinely cares about her students, listens to their feedback, and strives to give them the best possible experience. Best of all, her classes are fun, and she knows just how much to push you. I’ve never been stronger since attending her classes. She creates a warm and fun environment and is truly one in a million.

Aleasia is a truly gifted yoga teacher. I’ve attended many of her classes and find them energising, fun, and challenging. Aleasia’s positive, supportive energy and creative flows set her classes apart. You’ll never be bored, always have a laugh, be inspired, and gently learn to lean into your strength along the way.

Aleasia is a fantastic yoga and barre teacher. She tailors each class to the needs of her group of students, and she provides individual modifications to suit every body. She is upbeat and engaging in barre, and a soothing presence in yoga, making sure that her energy matches her class. She also focuses on form to ensure that her students get the most out of each movement and stay healthy in order to continue their practice. I hope to continue following along with her even now that I’m back in the US!

As a beginner to Slow Flow, Aleasia was encouraging and helpful with adjustments for different poses. She made the class welcoming and fun. Highly recommend.

Aleasia taught the most amazing Vinyasa class during ANZAC Day, referencing the strength, resilience, and courage of the fallen soldiers and translating it into the most beautiful and empowering yoga practice. She was teaching from the heart and the class could feel it.

Full of fun and enthusiasm, Aleasia (Lease) is such an awesome instructor, making Barre a ‘not to be missed’ class on Thursday! She guides us lovingly through some ‘spicy’ movements with her laughter, smile, and great selection of music. Her love of ‘pulsing pliés’ helps us remember her the following day. Thank you, Lease, for bringing such joy and a spring to our steps, especially if we are feeling a bit down! Love the BARRE!!

Who can say they look forward to their Barre classes? Well, I certainly do. Lease is so inspirational. She mixes up the class each time and makes it so much fun that you laugh through the pain. Lease will encourage you and correct your technique if necessary. The Barre class is more like a team—you’re missing out on an awesome workout and great fun at the same time.

Lease is an inspiration to me. Her Barre classes are so much fun, and her energy and passion help us so much with the challenges she brings to her classes every week at Yoga House Orewa.

I have attended Aleasia’s Barre class for some time now. Each week, Lease has a lively, active, and varied programme and caters to everyone’s abilities. It’s always great fun and an awesome workout, which leaves me feeling energised and with a smile on my face at the end of the class. The number of people who come regularly to her class is a testament to her.

Lease brings so much care, warmth, and energy to her classes—she’s human sunshine! She creates a really supportive environment to explore your edge whilst having fun. Her Barre classes have helped me reconnect with my physical strength, and the weeks I don’t go, I really miss it in both body and mind. Highly recommend!

I love Aleasia’s classes. Over the last year or so my balance and mobility have changed—Aleasia has always offered safe alternatives within the Barre class that meet a variety of abilities. We have lots of fun and, once settled (we’re a chatty bunch), we get on with doing ‘our’ individual best.

I’ve trained under Aleasia for several years now, and the word that best describes her flows is ‘balanced’. Aleasia brings the heat up through the lesson in a gentle and intuitive way, with plenty of options. The single best thing I do for myself is your class.
