Raised in Sand Springs, OK Leta graduated from Charles Page High School in 2007. She graduated from The University of Tulsa in December 2011, and the following year moved to Portland, OR.
She experienced her first yoga practice in 2002 and she has been coming back to the mat ever since. Following a wrist surgery and pair of knee surgeries in the summer and fall of 2010 Leta found a new side of yoga; one that allowed her to heal while learning more about her body and herself. In January of 2014 she decided to deepen her knowledge and understanding of yoga and began her Yoga Teacher Training through YogaFit. Through YogaFit she was able to study a range of subjects including philosophy, meditation, and a variety of asana (for a full list see below). While studying with YogaFit Leta donated her time, leading free yoga classes, at Rocky Mountain Repertory Theatre in Grand Lake, CO (July & August 2014) & the University of Western States in Portland, OR (January - December 2015).
