Leán is a teacher specialising in embodiment and the development of individual consciousness. Leán completed a three year training program in Cape Town under Walter Vaughn Jones and is a SASTAT certified Alexander Technique teacher.

Leán is an insightful thinker by nature with a rich grounding in religious thought, captivated by the influential role that the perceiving body plays in our processes of conceptualisation. Leán holds a M.Phil from the University of Johannesburg, in which she explores the relationship between instinct, emotion, the body and reason.

Leán intends to further her studies in Philosophy at the intersections between neuroscience and psychology, the philosophy of mind and science.

Leán has taught somatic principles for over a decade and lives equally for herself and others, with curiosity—truthfully and courageously. Leán values the skill and ability to release and redirect unnecessary tension in thought and action to develop a more vivd way of living life.

As the founder of Human Reaction, a company aimed at elevating the somatic intelligence of the world, Leán continues to offer group immersions and ongoing individual lessons.

Mother to a nine-year-old, Leán understands the demands of real life and is committed to sharing a skill that not only provides grounding in difficult times but also enhances joy when life is good, nurturing a more alive collective.
