The Greek Retreat with Susannah
Your TourHero
An RYT 800, Susannah has studied yoga in the US, South America, and Bali. Her unique blend of training in Vinyasa, Tantra, Ashtanga, and Ayurveda gives Susannah a different perspective through which she creates an environment that is energizing, yet grounding. She believes that yoga is not a practice, but a way of life. Rather than living for the weekend, each day, each moment, is an opportunity for a sacred, exciting life; one full of endless possibilities.
