Biography

Susie first became interested in health and the human body whilst studying Physiology at university in Leeds, graduating in 2003.  She went on to complete a Diploma in Holistic Massage at the Bristol College of Massage and Bodywork (BCMB).  Alongside this, and after suffering from lower back pain in 2004, Susie began attending regular yoga classes.  She chose to train to be a yoga teacher in 2007 and her style of teaching is interdisciplinary. She teaches both flow yoga - which is dynamic in style and inspired by the music, and Restorative yoga - which is subtle, yet profoundly effective and relaxing. 
Susie undertook an intensive two year programme in Macrobiotics and Life-counselling at the International Macrobiotic School in 2006.  This course included studies in Eastern facial diagnosis and the five transformations, Tom Monte’s Five Defences, counselling skills, cooking skills, and diet. 
In order to address mind-barriers and psychological blockages a person may have, Susie uses Neuro-Linguistic Programming.   

Susie continues to develop her skills as a therapist by regularly attending continued professional development workshops.  These include advanced massage workshops and supervision at BCMB, and specialist interest yoga modules.  She has a regular yoga practice and attends local classes, and workshops in Devon, Somerset and London.
