Hi, I am Lila Whiting.
YOGA TEACHER & MENTOR
In my work, I invite you to cultivate personal power & step into your self-leadership. Through mentorship, I work alongside you to unleash your greatest potential & play this game of life BIG! My approach is highly practical & energetic in equal parts, because for me, we need both structure & flow for success.
Over the past decade, I have taught yoga to thousands of people around the world. From my experience of leading classes, workshops & retreats, I have expanded to lead yoga teachers through mentorship.
Mentorship has been a pillar to my own success & I continually witness huge transformation in the lives of the women I work with. It’s not about superiority or competition, every woman has equal power but different. When we support each other & learn from each other, we RISE TOGETHER!
For years, I taught in the most prestigious London studios, with full classes at peak hour slots. I raced from class to class at break-neck speed to hustle my way to success. Completing training after training, believing that I needed to know more in order to justify my status as a leader. I felt like I had to be pretty & skinny in my Lulus at the front of the class. I told myself that I needed a big following on Instagram to validate my worth, which led to endless showcasing of advanced asana & promoting myself as the epitome of health & wisdom.
All the doing. Constant action. I felt like I was pushing a boulder uphill with zero support. I burnt TF out! I couldn’t take it another day. So, I quit. I left London & took six months in solitude to unravel my nervous system.
When our energy & emotion align with our desires, we become a match for that reality. I believe that our perspective & experience of our struggles & problems are keeping us from playing bigger.
Somewhere in the ruins of my old life I realised that I could not go back to the life I lived before. I knew I needed to change something at my very core.
I realised that I had a choice. A choice about everything. How to spend my time. Who to share my energy with. What I wanted my life to feel like. How I perceived my problems.
I began to cultivate self-leadership. I learned the power of my feminine energy, how to feel grounded in my body & safe in my emotions.
As I journey through life, I want to support other female leaders. So that together we rise.
I invite you to start making empowered choices.
Because you belong, you were born worthy & nothing has changed.
I invite you to get up close and personal with your limiting beliefs. I invite you to lean back & trust the undercurrent of your feminine energy. I invite you to surround yourself with other women who lead themselves. I invite you to connect to your desires. I invite you to pull up a chair to the table.
You can join my online offerings & connect to a community of self-led women in leadership.
“I’ve been practicing yoga with Lila for YEARS. We started our 1-1 yoga journey about two years ago and have never looked back. Lila’s ability to tailor each and every practice to your needs (whether physical, mental or even spiritual) is extraordinary. In the few years that we’ve been practicing together, there’s not a practice I wanted to or needed to skip (unless I’m physically VERY sick) as she delivers medicine for whatever it is that you need.
My relationship with yoga has changed since practicing with Lila, she is a natural born and true guide. She’s got an eagle eye like no other, she’ll guide you to the best form but also keep your mind and spirit moving along with it in what truly feels like a 360 practice. Lila guides every practice with precision, care and thought all while keeping lols level to one million. Every practice with her is a true joy in one form or another.”
