Susan Hyon has practiced yoga since 1999. She experienced immediate benefits: she was able to get concentrated, relax her body and mind, and become more present. Susan’s relationship to this rich tradition has evolved over the last 20 years, but her resolve to investigate and apply the wealth of knowledge and practical tools that yoga has to offer has never wavered. In 2015, she decided to deepen her practice by studying at the Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram (KYM) in Chennai. Susan holds a Yoga Alliance 200-hour certification, a KYM 700+hour yoga therapy international teaching certificate, and has completed four, 10-day silent Vipassana meditation courses as taught by S.N. Goenka. She is currently in training to be a psychoanalyst at the National Institute for the Psychotherapies in NYC. Susan and her husband are licensed foster parents and have two dogs.
