Susan is a founder and co-owner of Mandala Yoga Dublin. She has been practicing yoga for more than 20 years and teaching for over 15.

Susan first certified as a yoga instructor in 2009 when she walked away from a stressful all-consuming job. Always the curious student, she has completed multiple trainings and embraced a multiplicity of life changes.

For me yoga absolutely began as a simple ‘stretch + sweat’ endeavour. I stumbled one wet Friday evening into a stiflingly hot Bikram yoga class and…. I just kept going back. My practice began as an exercise in stretching my teflon-tight, marathon-running hamstrings. Little did I realise then how much yoga would, over time, stretch my mind, shape my body and expand my world view… in so many weird and wonderful ways.

Susan loves to travel, teach and practice a range of yoga styles. Certified to teach Vinyasa Flow, Bikram Yoga, Yin yoga, Meditation, Breathwork and an empowering Kundalini-inspired sequence Envision Yoga, Susan has taught yoga and led retreats internationally across Europe, USA and Asia.

Now a senior yin and meditation teacher and studio owner, Susan likes to weave all this life experience, these yoga styles and traditions into her own practice and classes. Susan likes to create intelligent flows and mixed-style accessible classes that are built on intention (Sankalpa).
