“Lanie is a HEALER in the truest meaning of the word. It is difficult to explain exactly what she does - the word magical comes to mind, and I have heard others describe her as an Angel on Earth. She is the most intuitive teacher I have ever studied with, offering years of skill and knowledge of the body as well as deep wisdom of the heart... and a wicked sense of humor! I know Lanie to be a continuous student of both cutting edge approaches to healing as well as ancient / traditional practices so that her offerings are rich and ever-evolving.
As a student she opened my mind to the possibilities of connecting to my heart and my Spirit through breath and body work. As a teacher she has had a profound impact on how I guide my own classes. Beyond that, Lanie is a spectacular human being who is a precious gift to every person who has the privilege of working with her - whatever the healing modality, context or environment.”

“There’s something about Lanie’s presence that feels like a warm embrace for your soul. She has this rare gift of knowing exactly what your body, mind, and spirit need—without you saying a word. Through her intuition, wisdom, and healing energy, she delivers the message your heart didn’t even know it was waiting for. Simply being in her presence feels like coming home to yourself.”

“Lanie is skilled beyond words. I have never come across a teacher quite so able to see students clearly long before they can see themselves. She is able to open paths of both exploration and healing for her students in a profound, otherworldly way. Her work lives in the realms of poetry and art, yet connects in grounded, meaningful and tangible ways. There is not a single student who doesn’t feel seen and understood by lanie. She continues to be the only guide I turn to in the deepest moments of transformation. Language often fails to capture what Lanie is capable of showing her students: a way of embodiment that will take you deeper in the world and in your personal work, yet closer to the unknown in a profoundly spiritual way. “

“Lanie embodies a kindness that weaves itself into a strongly supportive environment for inner work. Those seeking practice or healing can feel the sincerity and empathy that she exudes. It cannot be faked as it comes from doing the work that one is “meant to do.”
Lanie is highly intuitive and will pose probative questions that open emotional and energetic doors we may not know were closed. She is a “safe space” and I highly recommend her to anyone searching for heart led wellness.”

“Lanie is a gifted teacher. She brings a calmness to my practice that I have never experienced elsewhere. As a person dealing with chronic pain, I always leave Lanie's classes feeling better than when I came. She is gentle and supportive in her approach and supports the mind, body, and soul.“

“Lanie McManus has a gift like no other. She is a true healer. Whether she is working with you one on one or guiding a yoga class, her ability to reach every soul is literally magical. Her yoga classes are like no other. Intuitive, healing - with music to match the emotion. Lanie gives you the gift of release - physical, mental and emotional.
Warning: you may sob or laugh uncontrollably!! (Seriously! 😂😢🤗) That is the beauty of the healing Lanie brings & invites you to experience!! ”

“I’m not even sure where to begin with Lanie and her gift… She’s a true healer. An unbelievably intuitive individual whose aura, energy, and kindness permeate everyone and everything around her.
I was a client/patient/student of Lanie’s for well over 2 years, and she helped me through a stroke and a broken foot. She made the necessary adjustments to my sessions (treatment) in real time and even went as far as to continue her studies, specifically focusing on my issues from the stroke.
In addition to helping me feel better and regain flexibility and movement I didn’t have since I was a child, I looked forward to our sessions together for mental stability and clarity. It was truly my escape and did wonders for my mind and body. I only wish she’d relocate to Arizona, where I now live, so I could keep spending time with her and continue my newfound wellness journey.
Equally as impressive is the fact I’m NOT a “yogi” or someone who even understands that way of life. Lanie explained the benefits to me, not only convincing me to try it but also proving to me that I needed to stick with it. Ultimately, I too acquired “yoga clothes” and a yoga mat, which I kept in my car. I’m such a believer in Lanie that it’s difficult for me to work with anyone else. I also offered her magic to friends and family members who all love her and her work.
With Lanie, this isn’t just yoga; it’s a journey, and a simple touch from her is inexplicably soothing. I wholeheartedly recommend Lanie and will continue to try to steal her for a move to Arizona! “

Having known and worked with Lanie for thirteen years, I find her to be a remarkably gifted teacher. Whether it is her approach to yoga or sharing her intuitive and psychic abilities, Lanie brings to the spiritual seeker a connection of mind, soul and body. Her desire to bring that connection to the whole individual I would describe as a soft and gentle ‘knowing’ that invites an opening into higher dimensions. Her intuitive gentleness leads the way to an individual connection and approach that I have found to be an ‘easy’ and caring path to transformative experiences.

“Lanie is a truly genuine, caring, and compassionate yoga teacher. She is always welcoming, creates a safe space where you feel supported, encouraged, and inspired. Lanie is able to connect with people with such ease and guide anyone at any level or with any need they may have in their yoga practice. She is a genuine soul that I am lucky to have crossed paths with in life.”
