Suzanne's first priority is to help her students explore tools to release tension, grow strong to the core, and become well-aligned in body, mind, and spirit. Rather than 'pretzeling' our body into classical forms (asanas) and risking injury, we approach these poses using balanced and anatomically healthy joint alignment and muscle activation.
This way, we can strengthen our own individual weak areas and open tight spots that are often caused by years of one-sided workouts and 'office-and-iphone asana'. Suzanne incorporates cutting-edge techniques from physiotherapy and movement science to 'unlock' the powers of traditional asana, pranayama and meditation.

Suzanne is the best yoga instructor I have ever had. She uses humor when appropriate, does not take her self too seriously and clearly knows her stuff. As a beginner she made me feel at ease in her class, always offers multiple different adjustments to keep me feeling good and is super conscious of any physical issues or pain students have and offering alternatives to those moves. I highly recommend her to experienced yoga students and beginners.
