Method 1

I found the answer!
I wrote a class in css called .myCheckbox:

.THIS .myCheckbox{
  display: inline-block;
  float: left;
}

and added the class to the inputCheckbox:

<ui:inputCheckbox class="myCheckbox" aura:id="checkboxLeads" label="Leads" change="{!c.doInit}" value="True"/>

Method 2

You can use <p> tag or even a <div> to display the label separately.

<div>leads</div>
<ui:inputCheckbox aura:id="leadsCheckBox"  click="{!c.handleFilters}" value="true"/>

Method 3

I used standard SLDS classes to achieve it :

  <ui:inputCheckbox aura:id="checkbox" labelClass="slds-p-horizontal--small slds-float--left" label="My Check" change="{!c.onCheck}"/>
