About Susie
Susie graduated from A Jewel In The Lotus Yoga School in
2015 with her first 200 hour training. She is also trained to teach Chair Yoga and Ahnu YogaSport . In 2018, Susie further expanded her knowledge and training by completing Jimmy Barkan's Level 1 200 hour training. This experience broadened her perspective on the transformative power of yoga. However, Susie’s journey has not been without its share of challenges. Five years ago, she faced a life-altering battle with breast cancer. This experience tested her strength, both physically and emotionally. Her journey through cancer has not only shaped her as an individual but has also fueled her passion for helping others overcome their own obstacles and find solace through yoga. She has become an advocate for cancer survivors, using her platform as a yoga instructor to create a safe and nurturing space for individuals to heal and regain their strength. Susie’s story serves as a reminder that even in the face of adversity, one can find strength, healing, and purpose.
