She became interested in yoga through books and TV when she was nine years old. Soon after, she began formal yoga training in the iyengar tradition, an in-depth, alignment-oriented style that builds a strong foundation for understanding the biomechanics and purpose of each pose. Borrowing from the ashtanga tradition, she incorporates the flowing or "vinyasa" style of yoga into her precise, instructional teaching to give the student an experience of yoga by uniting the mind, body, and breath. She believes that as we move our bodies from pose to pose and breath to breath, yoga sharpens our awareness of each moment and each sensation. It is this focus that unclutters the mind and cleanses the body, leaving us with a fresh, rejuvenated soul. Suzanne has been teaching yoga for 10 years in northern California.
