Susan gets so much enjoyment out of seeing elite athletes reach their true potential by bringing balance to their minds and bodies and advising them on food and nutrition.
Bringing alignment and balance is very important for athletes as they tend to favour one side of their body more than the other which then creates a twist, a distortion in their structure of their bodies. Bringing balance back is very important to prevent the twist & rotation from being pulled out even more.
Bringing yoga into their weekly program allows their bodies to gain more strength and flexibility by focusing in a particular way on their harder side bringing physical and mental balance to their whole being.
This is different to gym work. Here we focus on moving with the breath so the mind, body and spirit are totally connected.
“The unique style of Ryoho delivered beautifully by Susan has improved the longevity of my training/competition tenure. I honestly feel better than I did when I was mid 20s and a great portion of that can be attributed to nourishing the right organs/meridians at the right season, plus the overall balance this practice brings to the physical body. I’m a devotee and will continue to practice this style for as long as I can foresee and will encourage as many athletes as I can to do the same.”

“Susan is an amazing yoga teacher, her passionate approach to teaching allows you to take away so much from her classes and use it in everyday life. Ever since I started yoga with Susan I have seen big changes in my body and it feels the best it ever has. I have been able to implement much of what Susan has shown and taught me into my training and I have seen my performances benefit from this. I couldn’t imagine not doing yoga now.”

“My weekly training schedule is full of training sessions which put some sort of stress on my body. Mixing these sessions up with Susan’s yoga has been very helpful in keeping my body mobile and grounded during these hard training blocks. Her attitude and the environment the yoga sessions take place in also make me look forward to coming to class.”
