The Yapana Way: Restorative Yoga Therapy & the Art of Being Paperback - 2013

About Leeann Carey Leeann fell in love with yoga in the late 1970's, and has never wavered in her passion for sharing the benefits of the 5,000-year-old science of life. Leeann shares that knowledge today through Yapana restorative yoga therapy teacher training programs and workshops, and through LCY mentors across the United States and Canada. Leeann opened the first full-service yoga studio in her South Bay community of Southern California in 1993. There she developed important skills for operating a successful "yoga business" and went on to create a teacher training school and developed the Yapana restorative yoga therapy program. Her eclectic blend of yoga, appeals to a wide range of students, and was forged over many years of study with gifted teachers including Kofi Busia, Donna Farhi, Richard C. Miller, Erich Schiffmann, and Judith Lasater. An ERYT-5000 certified instructor, Leeann has mastered the old techniques and developed new ones that help any student, young or old, fit or physically challenged, improve their performance and their lives. She has used her knowledge and experience to help professional athletes, such as the World Champion LA Lakers and Olympic Gold Medal Volleyball player Eric Fonoimoana, heal from injuries and improve their workouts and sports performance.
