Who We Are

---

The Eagle Institute was founded in 2015 in Mississauga, ON, Canada, as an online business to help CEOs, entrepreneurs, and C-Level leaders use practices from meditation and pre-meditation to improve their leadership performance. 

As stress, overwhelm, and burnout became more prevalent Kira Leskew, the Founder and Chief Program Officer, developed programs from her background as a yoga and pranayama teacher and as a long-time master level meditator to eliminate burnout and high stress and to become resistant to becoming stressed while running the same organizations, starting with techniques that are highly effective in under 15-minutes per day. Further curriculum in meditation for business performance is available and recommended for leaders who wish to further develop skills through meditation that would take much longer through other means. 

The core mission of The Eagle Institute Ltd. is to teach leaders to eliminate burnout and stress, meditate for Business High Performance, and build long-term practice habits through training programs that teach skills effectively and quickly.

We primarily teach online training programs that not only teach the skills but also support developing practice habits beyond the programs. Trainers are also available for on-site retreats. 

Kira Leskew is the Founder, Chief Program Officer and CEO of The Eagle Institute. Kira was speaking to some entrepreneur friends about some challenges, both business and personal, that she was going through, and describing the circumstances and her solutions. Her peers said that they would be in the hospital from the stress if they had to go through the same thing, and they asked her what her secret was. She told them, “I meditate, so it doesn’t bother me.” They asked her to start teaching them.

Kira Leskew is a certified Advanced Yoga Teacher from Esther Myers’ Yoga Studio, having trained with Esther directly before her passing. She has been meditating regularly since 2006, and is trained in multiple meditation disciplines with multiple master teachers. 

Kira has been teaching stress-reduction and elimination techniques that come from her background since 2000, and has taught meditation practices such as increasing focus, increasing emotional intelligence, increasing innovation, eliminating personal and leadership blind spots and increasing awareness for insight since 2015.

Kira is also a JonahTM, using Theory of Constraints to optimize business processes, and has spoken at global events multiple times on implementing Theory of Constraints. Kira uses her knowledge as a JonahTM to apply to the thinking of a leader and to unleash their limitations as a leader through meditation and pre-meditation practices.

Kira is a former elite athlete, previously ranked top 5 in the world as a master swimmer and having broken multiple Canadian records as a master and at Canadian Nationals. 

Kira brings her varied expertise to designing and teaching curriculum that eliminates burnout, reduces stress, and increases CEO and C-Suite performance through meditation, with programs that deliver results in minimal time.
