After retiring from teaching at the elementary level for 25 years, I decided I still wanted to teach. So, my love for nature and children led me in the direction of writing fictional animal based stories based on facts. I offer school wide readings, as well as class presentations. Depending on the program requested, I also offer activities (crafts and games) as well as some science based videos to aid in the presentation. Book signings are always provided for books purchased before or during the special book talk day. Books are: The Flamingo With Two Left Feet Amari’s BIG Surprise…It’s NOT Monkey Bread! We Can...and We Do!

The way she is able to connect with students and help them embody this work is a gift.” - District Director of Curriculum (North Country) “Leah's love and enthusiasm for neuroscience mindfulness education truly engaged all the students. She had such a special way of making each child feel heard. Her style allowed for students to connect the learning to their own lives, which made it very meaningful. The entire lesson execution was extraordinary!” - 3rd Grade Educator (Capital District) “She was absolutely wonderful. Taught in a way that felt very inclusive and open. I was not very comfortable with the practice in my own implementation and she really helped me feel comfortable with trying a multitude of ways and that they were all effective.” - Educator, Participating in Mindfulness for Educators (Capital District) Here is who we are and some of the ways we can work together to cultivate a more mindful way of being in your school community: Brave Lion offers students and educators with personalized and accessible (neuroscience-based) mindful tools to bolster emotional, mental and physical well-being.

Yo Re Mi provides arts-integrated social-emotional learning experiences that combine live music, movement, and mindfulness to support student regulation, engagement, and overall learning readiness. Through interactive classes, assemblies, residencies, and workshops, students develop emotional awareness, self-expression, and focus using developmentally aligned, play-based practices. These experiences are designed to be engaging and accessible for all learners while reinforcing core SEL competencies and arts-in-education standards. What sets Yo Re Mi apart is its connection to a broader, school-wide approach. Our work not only supports students in the moment, but also introduces a shared language and set of strategies that can be used throughout the school day, helping classrooms run more smoothly and supporting consistent Tier 1 social-emotional learning practices. In addition to direct student programming, Yo Re Mi offers educator certification and professional development, equipping school staff with practical, classroom-ready tools to sustain and integrate these strategies into daily routines over time.
