Greetings!

I’m Jennifer — seasoned Yoga educator, sewing and surface pattern designer, maker, and guide in the art of Living in Leela - a life rooted in curiosity, creativity, and playful exploration.

Through intentional attention to movement, breath, and self-study, my focus is to create engaging, informative, accessible experiences that invite people to reconnect with the true nature of the soul - light-hearted and carefree.

Whether through classes, courses, clothing, and other creative projects, my work is here to spark delight, insight, and inspire wonder, as we journey toward sustainable, healthy living and personal freedom.

Something new is always unfolding — stay connected.

“God has said Be Moderate with eating and drinking, but never Be satisfied when taking in the light.”

Surya Leela Designs

Surya Leela offers pattern design and apparel made from natural plant-based fibers like hemp, linen, and organic cotton. Each piece is thoughtfully designed to move with you—soft on sensitive skin, breathable, and beautiful in its simplicity. Inspired by the rhythms and colors of nature and the playful spirit of living in leela, Surya Leela’s designs are made to feel as good as they look—whether on the mat, at work, in your studio, or out in the world.

Each piece and pattern is a mindful reminder to live in harmony—with yourself and the world around you.
