Welcome Om

i’m SusanA and I’m here to empower people through the PRACTICAL wisdom of yoga.

I started practicing yoga while attending the University of Colorado in Boulder. After training with CorePower Yoga in 2009, I opened the boutique yoga studio Urban Yogi in downtown San Diego, where I developed a yoga teacher training curriculum and certified over 50 yoga teachers (RYS 200).

I received an additional 800 hours of training with Soul of Yoga Institute to become a certified yoga therapist, C-AIYT. Through an integrative lens, I assess private clients’ well-being on all levels and craft therapeutic plans to address issues like joint pain, nervous system imbalance, and general health concerns. I see people as whole beings, and help their wholeness shine through body, mind, and soul.

I draw from from a deep well of creativity inspired by metaphysics in my teaching and client care. I specialize in counteracting dysfunctional posture related to one’s daily life with “helpful opposites” that support quality of life, mobility, and longevity.

While earning a Master’s in Integral Health, I focused my studies on wellness in early motherhood. This research informs the therapeutic framework I discuss in the Yoga for Mom-Life podcast.

I teach locally for employees of Neurocrine Biosciences and at CorePower Yoga. I am also a faculty member of Soul of Yoga Institute’s IAYT Accredited Yoga Therapy Training, where I develop trainings and mentor future yoga therapists.

I dedicate this work to peace on Earth.

Waves of love,
