Your Course Director
Susan Church
After more than a decade of Dance training, Susan was introduced to yoga at TCD Drama . As a valuable part of her professional theatre career, Yoga gave focus and physical strength, not to mention a respite from the down-times of the artists world. This lead to the discovery that Yoga and physical therapy was her mission.
In 2000 she took her first Yoga teacher training, followed by two further Yoga training courses, Pilates teacher training and massage therapy. She has recently completed her Anatomy Trains in Motion Diploma with Art of Motion Training.
She has participated in hundreds of courses in Yoga, Pilates and functional movement with people like Ana Forrest, Jason Crandel, Desiree Ramburgh, Godfrey Devereux, Danny Paradise, Gloria Kay, Rebecca Leone, Karin Gurtner, James D'Silva, Stott, Balanced Body, and many more.
She is a lead trainer at The Elbowroom Yoga teacher training in Dublin, Ireland as well as being the Director of both Pilates Teacher Training Institute and Yoga and Pilates in Malaga.
