Susan Lawrence
Susan is trained in Hatha and Restorative Yoga. She studied with Andrea Karahalios in Miami to receive her 200 hour certification in 2021 in the tradition of the Himalayan Institute. She completed her 300 hour training in the vinyasa flow method with RedTail Power Yoga in Hopewell Junction, NY in 2024. Additional trainings include a mentorship program with Jackie Incorvia and Danielle Goldstein at Mindful Turtle, with an Ashtanga-inspired focus on alignment and assists. In 2023 she completed Advanced Relax & Renew, learning therapeutic applications of Restorative Yoga with Judith Hanson Lasater. Susan’s yoga practice has evolved over 20 years and she has found it to be essential through many life transitions. Her teaching is informed by her ongoing transformative spiritual journey and her personal experience with the healing effects of a restorative practice. Susan’s classes offer gentle breath-guided movement, instruction in the use of props, and asana variations. Her hope is to share with her students the joy and healing that she has found through living her yoga. Susan calls Port Jefferson home and is the proud mama of Brook and their kittens, Onyx and Sol. She is beyond grateful that her path has led her to the Mindful Turtle community.
