Why Manduka?: It doesn't matter what type of floor you are on when using Manduka mat. The stability and steadiness of the mat make you feel you are always on "terrafirma."
What does your Manduka help you #practice?: My Manduka helps me practice because it never gives up.

Description/Bio
For over fifteen years and 2,500 hours of intensive study and teaching yoga, Leslie Howard has developed a unique specialty in working with men and women who have challenges in their hips. Leslie has discovered a profound way of using yoga poses to alleviate and eliminate discomfort through the deeper understanding of the pelvis.
Her pelvic floor work is a result of individual exploration and working with Susanne Kemmerer, Lizanne Pastore, Manouso Manos and Ramanand Patel. Leslie is an expert on the female pelvic floor muscles, teaching nationwide workshops including the Yoga Journal Conferences on pelvic health issues ranging from incontinence to painful intercourse.
She is also featured in an upcoming documentary “Yoga and Women."
Through media publisher Pranamaya, Leslie is currently featured in her latest online video class called “Yoga for Cranky Hips”, available at http://www.pranamaya.com/online-courses/yoga-for-cranky-hips.html.
