YOUR INSTRUCTORS

Susan Johnson, E-RYT 200, YACEP—Owner/Instructor

Since she founded InsideOut Yoga in 2010, Susan "has gained a reputation not only for teaching yoga to people of all ages, but for giving people the tools to change their lives" (Local Scoop Magazine). Her RYT training in 2008 with Ashtanga and Iyengar instructors, Jennifer Elliot and Sandra Pleasants, reinforced her love of creative movement, skillful alignment, and spiritual exploration. Susan is also the founder of the Kekoka Yoga Retreat and leads retreats around the world that challenge your body and nurture your spirit. Although she has studied with some amazing instructors such as Annie Carpenter, David Swenson, Eoin Finn, Jason Crandell, and Tiffany Cruikshank, Susan’s principle sources of instruction are her personal practice and what she learns daily from her students. Susan is currently training to be a Yoga Medicine® Therapeutic Specialist.
