A woman of many roles and infinite passions, I proudly wear the hats of mother, daughter, sister, and friend. Each of these connections weaves the rich tapestry of my life, grounding me in love, growth, and shared experiences.
For over a decade, yoga has been my anchor, my compass, and my joy. As a certified Kundalini yoga and meditation teacher, I guide others through transformative practices that awaken the spirit and center the soul. Mantra meditations are my heart’s song, blending sound and stillness to create moments of profound peace.
I also cherish the deep restorative magic of Yoga Nidra, the gentle embrace of yin yoga, and the soothing clarity of mindfulness meditations.
These practices are my gifts to the world—an invitation to explore the calm within, to move with intention, and to rediscover the beauty of being present.
Whether you’re seeking serenity, inner exploration, or a nurturing practice to ground your day, I’m here to guide you with warmth, compassion, and a sprinkle...

Sue's yoga and meditation journey began about 30 years ago in graduate school. Much of her early training was in the Iyengar tradition, and living and travelling in many countries gave her the opportunity to explore different yoga styles and integrate these into her own practice.
After years of yoga practice on the side of a busy international development career, Sue had the opportunity to switch the balance and put yoga at the centre. She was drawn to teaching as the pathway to engaging more deeply in yoga, in part because of her experience in other contexts, including university and martial arts teaching, and she completed her 200-hour Hatha Yoga Teacher Training at PranaShanti in 2022.
Sue's focus is grounded in a more classic hatha practice, bringing emphasis to connecting the body and breath through mindful movement and developing a greater awareness of our own physical and mental alignment. With a strong belief in life-long learning, Sue is continuing her yoga journey...
