• Functional Anatomy for Yoga
• Energetic Anatomy, including Modern Meridian Theory, Chakras, Koshas and more

Leta LaVigne (E-RYT 500, YACEP) is the founder of yogaROCKS studios in Lahti and one of Finland's senior yin yoga teachers. She has been a full time yoga teacher since 2008 and has immersed herself in the practice and teaching of yin yoga since 2010. Leta has been greatly influenced by studies with Yin Yoga pioneer Paul Grilley, with whom she has studied regularly for over a decade. As a devoted Grilley student, she teaches yin with a functional approach rather than relying on alignment rules based on how a pose should look.

A functional approach stresses the “why” as much as the “how,” and encourages students to customize their practice for their unique body. It builds confidence in the individual to proceed on the yogic path verified by their own experience, and acts as a platform from which a teacher can facilitate greater presence/awareness, healing and peace.

Leta has taught and mentored many yin teachers in Finland over the years. As an experienced teacher trainer who still teaches full time herself, Leta infuses her trainings with humor, warmth, and a wealth of practical experience. She has a love of helping new teachers identify and develop their unique strengths.

"Hyvät ystävät - jos harkitsette Yin-joogan syventävää koulutusta, suosittelen tosi lämpimästi Leta-An LaVignen funktionaalisen lähestymistavan kurssia. Hinta-laatusuhde on huikea ja kurssin anti on 100% käyttökelpoista opetuksessa. Olen tosi tyytyväinen."
- Nina Pyykkönen

"I loved everything! The down-to-earthness about functionality yet keeping in mind that yoga is yoga and not just fashionable streching. Leta has so much experience and a way of verbalizing it to get to the core of the essentials. It was amazing to have such a well constructed course and proper manual, all put together for us. On a meta level, it was good to learn about teaching, too: Leta really knows how to teach, both yoga and yoga teachers! The atmosphere and rapport was so welcoming and warm that a real sense of belonging, trust and companionship was quickly established - it was good we took time for the introductions and mixed up the teaching groups for everybody to interact with each other. I have experienced trainings that have not felt like value for money (outside of the yoga scene as well), but this course had the sense of added value, which is quite unique these days. And that stems from Leta's personal skills and spirit!"
- Katja Heikkiläinen

"Letan yinjoogan opettajakoulutus on aivan huippu ja sopi juuri minun tarpeisiini ammatillista lisäkoulutusta kaivanneena opettajana.
Kurssi oli aikataulultaan sopivan tiivis, mutta kaikki olennainen käytiin läpi havainnollistavien esimerkkien ja tehtävien kautta. Erityisesti pidin käytännönläheisestä otteesta yinin opettamiseen ja tosielämän opetustilanteisiin. Koulutuksessa oli mukana riittävästi joogan yleistä teoriaa, asentojen anatomiaa ja yinjoogan toimintaperiaatteita helposti sisäistettävällä tavalla. Pääpaino oli kuitenkin käytännön harjoitteissa ja tätä arvostin todella paljon. Opetusmanuaali sisältää paljon asiaa, johon voi myöhemminkin tarpeen tullen palata. Leta luo ympärilleen avoimen, kannustavan ja välittömän ilmapiirin, jossa kaikkien on helppo keskustella ja olla omia itsejään. Yhteishenki oli mahtava! Suosittelen lämpimästi tätä koulutusta kaikille yinjoogasta kiinnostuneille harjoittelijoille ja opettajille! Tästä sai todella hyvät eväät arkipäivän opetustilanteisiin, ammattitaidon kehittämiseen ja tuntisisältöjen suunnitteluun!"
- Teija Maila

"I recommend this training. A full-on five hearts! It provides you with a useful method on how to approach Yin Yoga as a whole, which I found to be priceless timewise and focus-wise as the diverse information out there can feel a bit overwhelming to get a grip on. The training also sparked my enthusiasm to learn more, to dive into the books and other sources that were recommended. The training encouraged to embrace our differences and to find comfort to start exploring ways to bring authenticity into the practice. Leta is such a sweet and thoughtful teacher. She is really considerate in her languaging. A true artist in the way she uses words. She inspires me to be more skillful and mindful in how I communicate. Her constructive feedback feels like it's a realization of your own and which you want to remember next time. The training welcomes you as you are, it helps you to open up and to further explore the aspects of who you truly are. Thank you."
- Jaana Ritari

"Leta is a very approachable and happy person, who is always eager to assist. Leta is a student of Paul Grilley's, so the line to the source of Yin Yoga is a straight one. This also means there is a lot of anatomy and physiology involved, and it is all directly applied to Yin Yoga. It is a very pragmatic package and helps understanding the whole concept of Yin Yoga and how it affects the human body. Much of the time is spent learning that, but there is also a segment about the more esoteric aspects of any Yoga, including chakras, which makes this training very complete and all-rounded. The class structure is well-defined with certain key components to be included about every asana, which makes teaching Yin Yoga very logical and whole."
- Mika Perkiömäki M.Ed in Exercise Science
