SUSAN ZANKEL, RYT

Susan began practicing yoga 7 years ago and from her first class she hoped to teach so she could grow in her own practice and share yoga with others. Susan believes that the practice of yoga is a gift we can embrace that allows us to be our best selves in all that we do. 

Susan's class follows a vinyasa style, a flow of yoga postures linking breath and movement that builds healing heat and opens the body and mind.  Susan's classes offer a retreat where students can quiet their minds and open their hearts, stretch and strengthen, and find balance in their bodies and lives.  Susan invites students to honor themselves, stay present and connected in the breath, and give themselves the gift of yoga!

Susan has completed teacher training intensives with Baron Baptiste, Mimi Loureiro and Tom Sherman.  She has expanded her practice through workshops and trainings with a variety of yoga teachers and feels she has learned the most from the students who attend her classes, for which she is truly grateful.  Susan has also enjoyed introducing yoga to children and teens through classes at the Concord Fitness Center and Girls Inc. in Concord, as well as to her two young-yogi's (Maura & Andrew) at home.
