Spring in The Sanctuary
Currents

Tending the living energy beneath movement, breath, and being.

A community program for women who are ready to experience themselves as more than bodies to improve - as energy in motion, alive and vibrant.

Virtual Studio and Wisdom School

Midlife asks for a new kind of awareness.
One rooted in presence, breath, and the currents that flow through us.

This 10 week program weaves mindful movement practices with explorations of the subtle body - the living energy that animates everything we are and do. We're not just building physical strength (though we are). We're learning to tend to ourselves as whole beings: the physical body, yes, but also the energy that animates it, the flow of vitality that makes us feel truly alive.

This is the HeartSong Yoga Sanctuary - mindfulness and body care
balanced with effective, intelligent practices that truly work.

What you will experience

Your program includes:

🔸 Work IN Workout - Mindful Strengthening (Mondays)

Resistance training with weights and bands, agility and mobility exercises to support graceful aging and build muscular and bone health. Every movement an opportunity to tend to your physical vessel with breath and presence, caring for the body that carries your life force.

🔸 Core Revival - Yoga, Core & Restoration (Wednesdays)

Yoga asana, intentional core and pelvic floor strengthening and exploration, restorative postures and breath practice. Where we build from the center out, soften what's been held too tight, and reconnect with the subtle currents that sustain us.

🔸 Meditation & Connection Circles (Tuesdays, bi-weekly)

Community gatherings where we explore the energetic dimension of what we're learning. Short teachings to open perspective, followed by practices that give you direct experience - not just talking about energy, but feeling it, knowing it from the inside.

🔸🔸🔸

Through it all, we're tending to the currents - the subtle body - the flow of prana that makes us feel vibrant and alive. This isn't abstract philosophy. This is lived experience: the reason breath matters, the reason presence transforms movement, the reason we practice the way we do.

Who This Is For?

This program is ideal for you if...

• You're in midlife (40s, 50s, 60s+) and want strength training that actually honors your mind, body, and spirit

• You've been told you need to build bone density, strength, or support your joints - and want to do it safely

• You want to get stronger - but not in a gym environment that feels overwhelming, loud, or rushed

• You love mindful movement and want your workouts to feel present, embodied, and calming

• You want someone to teach you how to move well, not just tell you to follow along

• You're curious about energy - the subtle body, the currents that flow through us, what it means to be more than just physical form

• You're craving a supportive, nourishing movement space where you can build strength, resilience, and confidence at a sustainable pace

If you want strength and spaciousness... If you want a practice that supports your bones, your breath, and your whole being...

Meet Your Guide

Hi! I'm Leslie Ellis, a yoga therapist, soul-based coach, and movement guide for midlife women. I'm a postmenopausal woman, an avid hiker, and have practiced yoga nearly 40 years. But I found that yoga alone wasn't keeping me strong enough, so I started weight training - even though the gym environment has never inspired me.

Since then, I've expanded my knowledge, diving deeply into the science of bone health, strength training designed specifically for women's bodies, and the energetic dimension of movement - how we're not just muscles and bones but living currents of energy.

I'm excited to share this journey with you!

I use the wisdom of yoga as a foundation, but my classes go beyond the typical "fancy flows and tricky poses." In this program, I incorporate focused, effective strength training and breathwork designed to build bone density, improve posture and alignment, and help you feel confident and supported in your body.

I teach in a way that is mindful, precise, and empowering, helping you move safely while building real-world strength in your muscles, bones, and breath - and your understanding of the currents that animate you.

Midlife is a time to move with purpose, grace, and presence - and I'm here to help you create a body you feel great in, open to the rich possibilities of the years ahead, alive with vitality.
