A lifelong athlete, Dr. Lelke competed at the NCAA Division I level as a collegiate track and field athlete, specializing in the heptathlon and pole vault. Her athletic background—combined with over a decade of experience teaching yoga in Portland and the Bay Area—has shaped her deep understanding of biomechanics, movement efficiency, and injury prevention.

Dr. Lelke and her husband moved to Reno in 2019 to immerse themselves in the outdoor lifestyle of the Eastern Sierra, where they now enjoy raising their daughter in a vibrant and active community. Outside the clinic, she can often be found on the tennis courts, ski slopes, or exploring the trails that make the Reno–Tahoe area such a remarkable place to live and stay active.
