AS FEATURED IN:

Stage 1: Foundations for Becoming A Movement Detective.

This is Susi's foundation therapeutic yoga professional training program for yoga teachers, yoga therapists and health professionals who want to train their eye and grow their skill.

Beginning July 6 this program is the intersection of pain science, yoga, kinesiology and neuroscience.

You will deep dive into Osteoarthritis, Hypermobility, and by the end will have clarity and confidence for helping your clients reduce and/or eliminate pain.

Stage 2: Therapeutic Yoga Intensive

You’re ready to work one-on-one, help people heal, and be seen as a true professional.

The Therapeutic Yoga Intensive (TYI) is where that journey deepens.

You’ll build real therapeutic skills — rooted in biomechanics, kinesiology, and nervous system science — and learn how to assess, adapt, and support clients with clarity and confidence.

It’s live-online, experiential, and personalized.

You’ll work directly with me (Susi), receive personalized feedback, and immerse yourself in the art and science of therapeutic presence.

Real skills. Real mentorship. A real path forward.

Stage 3: Yoga Therapy Certification

You want a part-time, full-time, or retirement practice — built on strong skills, steady growth, and real impact.

In our Functional Synergy and IAYT-Accredited Yoga Therapy Certification Programs, you’ll deepen your therapeutic skills, refine your clinical understanding, and build the presence and precision needed to help clients consistently reduce and eradicate pain.
You’ll develop a steady, fulfilling practice grounded in real results — one that grows sustainably and supports both your purpose and your life.

You’ll also learn the business strategies to attract and serve a client base you love, so when you graduate, you’re not just a skilled therapist — you’re a thriving professional with the freedom and flexibility you envisioned.

Strong skills. Steady growth. A practice built to last.

Stage 4: On Demand Catalogue

You want down-to-earth, practical, and effective continuing education.

Our On-Demand Catalogue is designed for yoga teachers who want skills they can use right away — and you can also get CEUs accredited by NCBTMB, Yoga Alliance, and IAYT.

Whether you’re refining shoulder mechanics, hip rotation, core stability, or post-injury recovery, these trainings give you targeted, practical tools to help students move better, feel better, and heal — immediately.

Clear. Practical. Powerful.

Learning that fits your schedule — and fuels your impact.

Stage 5: Onward to Mastery

You’re ready for mastery — and to lead the next generation.

For those ready to move beyond client sessions into thought leadership, mentorship, and teaching, we offer advanced mentorship and master-level integration.

This is where therapeutic skill becomes art.
This is where your presence shapes the future of therapeutic yoga.

Lead with skill. Teach with heart. Create your legacy.

Listen to the whispers of your body,
so you don’t have to hear (or feel) the screams.

Our Founder

Susi

Susi has spent 25+ years teaching yoga-informed anatomy, biomechanics, and physiology principles to movement and body-based professionals wanting to achieve long-lasting results for themselves and their practice.

By combining her B.Sc. in Kinesiology with her practical understanding of movement, breath and stillness, she sees compensatory movement strategies and understands how movement truly works.

The nervous system can catalyze powerful healing when in a relaxed, non-wired, non-tired state. She knows how to help others get to this place. That is what she teaches. This is what she can teach you.

Painfree Results

Susi has succeeded in transforming modern pain psychology into something more human.

As a kinesiologist, she has deep fluency using movement as a therapeutic tool; however, any practitioner knows that true healing requires more than just the rigid application of a bio-medical model. Susi’s technique uses movement as an “in” to the complex interplay between the physical, psychological and spiritual dimensions of pain. As a doctor with a growing interest in Integrative Medicine, her teachings have been particularly helpful in managing patients suffering from pain and chronic disease.

Truly a gifted practitioner and a wonderful person.

To analyze movement takes a combination of formal training in anatomical and biomechanical knowledge, and a solid sense of intuition. While the former is attained though time and diligent practice, the latter is more difficult to master. It requires the practitioner to combine reason with instinct and curiosity. Susi has proved to be an expert at this skill, which makes collaborations with her very rewarding. I can trust her to help my clients find new ways to explore their senses and gain a new connection between the brain, body and spirit.

After each training with Susi, my teaching evolves and my personal practice evolves.

I gain more clarity and insight about the body, and how it functions every time I complete a training. I also leave with a greater sense of direction as to where/how I want to teach yoga in my studio and also I gain a greater sense of direction in my personal life. The trainings remind me of why I do what I do and how to take it to the next level.
