Suzi LeBaron began practicing yoga 13 years ago, after the birth of her son. Although her background is primarily in the Iyengar tradition of yoga, she trained as a teacher through Yoga Programs of Sonoma County, a multi-disciplinary program, and continued her training her with traditional college-level anatomy and physiology classes as well as classes from master yoga teachers, physical therapists, and others.

Her classes emphasize a balance of strength and ease in the body, with attention to alignment and safety. Challenges are provided for students at most levels. She enjoys working with people of all ages, body sizes, shapes, abilities, genders, and identities, helping them feel comfortable with yoga and themselves.

Suzi has worked with people with a variety of limitations and disabilities and students with special considerations may be easily accommodated in her public classes. She offers private yoga sessions as well.

Also a massage therapist, trained in Swedish/Esalen and Thai (yoga) massage, she is also a trained doula and has worked for a local hospice organization. She is particularly fascinated by the place where the mystery and science of yoga intersect. Her essays about yoga practice in everyday life can be found at www.yogalikesalt.com, and you can follow her on Twitter @YogaBodega.
