Hey there, I'm LeeAnn Mills,

Founder of Alpenglow Wellness standing outside a studio space, representing nervous-system–informed movement, education, and retreat-based learning.

I’m a Physical Therapist Assistant, yoga teacher, and movement guide. For over 15 years, I’ve worked with every kind of human — from Olympic athletes to stroke survivors — and I’ve seen firsthand what helps people feel strong, steady, and capable again.

It’s never about pushing harder.
It’s about understanding your body, moving in ways your system can actually handle, and recovering before you burn out.

That’s the lens behind everything I teach now — simple, steady movement, nervous-system-friendly recovery, and practical tools that help you feel better on the wall, on the trail, and in your everyday life.

This is why I started Alpenglow Wellness: to give people real tools to feel good in their bodies again, without extremes or pressure.

What Guides My Work:

A Nervous System Lens
I teach movement and recovery in a way that respects what your system can handle. When your body and energy are on the same page, everything feels easier.

Simple, Steady Movement
Years of teaching — and plenty of time on the wall and the trail — have taught me that strength comes from consistency, not extremes. I focus on movement that feels doable, supportive, and effective.

The Pace of Real Life
Living between Tahoe and Greece shaped how I think about wellness: slower, steadier, more connected to what your body actually needs day-to-day.

If you want to feel strong without running on fumes, this is the work.
