Leander Kane

Teachers || In Memory of the Ven. Namgyal Rinpoché | Tarchin Hearn | Bonni Ross | Catherine Rathbun | Cecilie Kwiat | Chimé Shore | Jangchoub (Lindsay Reid) | Keith Rowan | Leander Kane | Mark Webber | Sonia Moriceau | Robert Sinclair

Leander is a New Zealander.

She has received many, many teachings from, and been inspired by, Tarchin Hearn; Bonni Ross (founder of the Sunshine Coast Retreat Centre near Vancouver, Canada); the Venerable Namgyal Rinpoché, and the work of Moshe Feldenkrais over the last 16 years. This has included 3 month meditation retreats most years.

Leander has worked as a Feldenkrais Practitioner for over 13 years and studied Kum Nye and massage.

She has crafted a unique and direct way of unfolding human consciousness - liberation - working with body in a moving meditation that brings 'attention to the detail' to even very small movements. Changes are spontaneous and immediate, and affect the body and mind. People can experience relief from pain and more flexibility; better balance and co-ordination; increased clarity, alertness and confidence; peacefulness, grace and joy - a liberation from the old stuck patterning.

During retreats she interweaves this work with meditative explorations in all postures. Working this way deepens the understandings of the mysteries of body/mind for the liberation from suffering.

For the last 13 years Leander has given 'Liberation Through The Body' residential retreats of 2 - 23 days at the Wangapeka Study and Retreat Centre in Nelson. She also travels and teaches around NZ and overseas in Australia, Canada and USA.
