Suzanne is a 500-hour graduate of both the Embodyoga® program and The Hard & The Soft Yoga Institute, and is on faculty for both schools. She also completed the yearlong Living Tantra program and the Sage Program, taught by Pandit Rajmani Tigunait at the Himalayan Institute. Suzanne has worked with veterans with PTSD since 2007, and has learned that yoga teachers working with this population require additional training tailored to their specific needs.
