Leah Bosworth is the founder of Ironwood Yoga Studios and co-owner of Ironwood Mills, where craftsmanship, embodiment, and soul-centered living intersect.
She began practicing yoga in 1997 while working as an actor in New York City. What started as a grounding ritual during her acting days in New York City became a lifelong path of study, healing, and self-discovery.
For over a decade, Leah studied and taught alongside Fay Simpson, creator of the Lucid Body Techniqueโa powerful psycho-physical process rooted in Jungian psychology, chakra energy, and holistic embodiment.
This training gave her a profound understanding of how we move through the worldโhow shadow and persona live in the body, and how breath, alignment, and intention can unlock deeper truth and freedom. The influence of this work continues to shape her teaching and her life.
In 2005, she followed her adventurous spirit west, trading the concrete of NYC for the spaciousness of the Arizona desert and eventually founded Ironwood Yoga Studios in 2015โtransforming a raw industrial space into a sanctuary for stillness, movement, and community.
When COVID changed everything, Leah made the difficult decision to close the studio to public classes. But she adaptedโcreating an online platform, developing new offerings, and shifting focus to Ironwood Mills, the custom furniture business she co-founded with her partner, Scott Mills.
Now, both businesses are deeply intertwined. Ironwood Yoga lives on through online classes, seasonal pop-ups, and wellness experiences woven into the creative ecosystem of Ironwood Mills. Together, they reflect Leahโs belief that beauty, presence, and inner work belong in every part of lifeโfrom the yoga mat to the workshop to the dinner table.
With nearly three decades of yoga and embodiment experience, and over a decade running and evolving two mission-driven businesses, Leah knows the pressures of modern lifeโand the necessity of practices that bring us back to ourselves. Her teaching blends precision with soul, inviting you to slow down, breathe deeper, and remember what matters the most. YOU.
