Integrating nutrition and positive eating practices into a healthy lifestyle

Join us on Thursday September 5th for our monthly meetup!

We are honored to feature local business owner Leah Haggard for the event! Leah Haggard is a certified Holistic Nutrition Health Coach who works with individuals on integrating nutrition and positive eating practices into a healthy lifestyle. Her practice recognizes that every person is different and provides individualized care centered around core values such as whole foods, balance, and intuitive eating.

She grew up training in ballet as well as cooking alongside her family from an early age, which is where her interest in health and wellness began. After high school, Leah trained with the Pacific Northwest Ballet before dancing professionally with ballet companies in Utah, Washington D.C., Memphis, and Grand Rapids. During this time, she completed her Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, and started posting about her food journey as a dancer. Leah went back to school at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition to further study nutrition from a holistic perspective.

She has combined her knowledge and accreditation in nutrition with her passion and experience in ballet to serve professional dancers, students, and dance organizations. She teaches on topics such as dancer nutrition, relationship with food, body image, and healthy lifestyle habits for dancers and works with dance institutions to promote dancer wellness in the organization.

A few of the topics discussed will be:
-The difference between conventional dieting and a balanced healthy diet.
-Why is there conflicting nutritional information?
-Nutrition Guidelines for success.

We are excited to have Leah share this message with the Wellness Warriors Community and we can't wait to see you there!
