Yoga with Suzi — Local services in New York

Working with Suzi has been wonderful! As a 20something I thought I was in fantastic shape, minus not being able to touch my toes, but what adult can anymore? On the first day Suzi said I’d be able to again, but I’d have to work. Since, Suzi has taught me to stretch and strengthen and now I can hold myself up on my hands (the crow!) That would be sufficient, but what Suzi teaches is to be aware of your body. I found out those “every day aches that just go away” weren’t nothing and my body was saying something and now I could answer! The best part for me as a fellow teacher is her ability to differentiate so my mother and I could have some sessions together and those times I have truly enjoyed laughing along with Suzi! Mentally, Suzi teaches you to make time for yourself-I wasn’t sold on meditation but found it could work some days while others needed the kick butt vinyasa session. Her most wonderful quality is she sincerely cares about educating her clients. She’ll give you confidence to try things while creating the most hysterical and comforting...

I’m so grateful to have found Suzi for private yoga lessons—she is truly exceptional. Suzi brings the perfect balance of teaching technique while explaining the science and logic behind each movement, which makes everything feel purposeful and manageable. What sets her apart is how she tailors each session to meet you where you are, physically and mentally, in that moment.

Suzi has a unique gift for reading people and adapting her teaching style to support your individual needs and goals. She really listens, creates a space where you feel completely at ease, and still manages to gently correct and challenge you in all the right ways. I’ve learned so much from her and continue to grow with every session.

There’s a natural ease and familiarity in every session that allows me to let go, relax, and not be so hard on myself—something that doesn’t come easily for me! Suzi always helps me find the lightness and even the laughter in the practice, which has been just as valuable as the physical benefits. I can’t...

Suzi's knowledge of anatomy, yoga, psyche, physical therapy and the body surpass any instructor I have encountered. She is realistic in her approach in that she does not have a one-size-fits-all method in her practice - it is not just yoga! I came to hear in pain caused by multiple injuries, some with scar tissue, to my legs, back, shoulder, ankles and other areas. Before seeing her, I could barely put on my socks without pain. Now I am able to function, with minimal pain, and do the activities I enjoy such as working out in the gym, walking for long periods, attending sporting events where sitting in the seats would be uncomfortable - things which I love to do, which I thought I could never do again at a fun level, or could not bare to do, due to pain, before I started working with her. My quality of life has increased exponentially because of her and her dedication. I highly recommend her to anyone who has injuries or any kind of physical malaise that is hindering your...
