Group yoga classes are a wonderful way to enjoy the benefits of yoga and the energy of
being in a group of like-minded people. I'm currently teaching weekly yoga classes
that are open to the public at the beautiful PranaShanti Yoga Centre, located at 950 Gladstone
Avenue, Ottawa, and Willow Wellness in lovely Richmond.
For class descriptions and registration links, check out my Upcoming page.
Private yoga therapy is for individuals who want to explore yoga as a way to address a specific health
condition or challenge. Sessions are tailored to the needs of the individual client and address
all aspects of their being - body, mind, and spirit. Learn more about private yoga therapy.
”I had the good fortune of working with Susan privately in my home. This was invaluable to me as I needed help but was anxious at the thought of leaving the house some days. Being in my home removed a difficult barrier for me. Susan is an excellent instructor because she's compassionate, and not judging. This allowed me to feel comfortable giving her honest feedback. This in turn allowed Susan to adapt the program to my needs, which was integral to my success. The tools and practices I learned really helped me get through my difficult days. Of course, the gift of yoga is that these tools can be used in everyday living whether I'm anxious or not.” (C.D.)
"Thanks for this great working document on my yoga therapy program. I feel so special to know that you've really tailored this for my needs...I know: that's the point, but it's the difference between bespoke tailoring and off-the-rack, right? (M.M)
"I was going to write as soon as I got home to say what a powerful and energizing time I had with you. How did the time slip away? Yet, I found it most productive...an organic approach to reveal the layers to work with, I'd say." (M.M.)

Clinics & Workshops are a perfect way to take a "deeper dive"
into a specific area of interest or need. There are two clinics coming up this fall.
RETURNING! Overcome! Yoga and the Art of Self-Regulation (former Overcome! Anxiety program)
This program is an evidence-based, natural, and holistic approach to managing and overcoming chronic stress and anxiety. It focuses on developing an understanding of nervous system dysregulation and the exploration of yoga-related tools and techniques to address the physiological, emotional, and behavioural elements of self-regulation.
NEW! Yoga Reset: Principles and Practices of Safe Yoga for People with Osteoporosis
This program is aimed at people who have osteoporosis or osteopenia (low bone density), an established yoga practice, and who want to learn how to continue their practice safely. It is based on the principles outlined by Osteoporosis Canada in their Basic Bone Fit™ program and Too Fit To Fracture: Managing Osteoporosis through Exercise.
