Testimonials

It is an honor to walk alongside people as they grow, move, heal, reflect, and reconnect with themselves. These words are shared by clients and students who have experienced Susie’s coaching, yoga, wellness, and YoPiBa offerings.

Life Coaching

  • Susie’s ability to listen to my feelings and concerns, reflect back to me, and allow me the space to draw my own conclusions is amazing. Susie also validates my feelings without judging situations I describe

    or about others in my life – in other words, the focus is always on me and what I choose to do. She also knows when to interject and point out positive attributes that I might not realize I have or tend to gloss over. She reflects positivity and goodness with a dose of reality enabling me to take her ideas and suggestions into real world situations. Her suggestions are straightforward but given with

    options depending on my level of comfort. She is open and flexible and is not about forcing her thoughts and ideas on me. She meets me where I am. Her goodness literally translates to me, even over Zoom and I always looked forward to our next session.

    My new mantra, when difficult situations present themselves is “What would Susie guide me to do?” – and I try to follow what I’ve learned, whether it be take a few deep breaths, take some time alone, gently share my truth, turn down an invitation, or hop in the car and take a drive to clear my head – she is with me always – guiding and caring.

    I can’t say enough good things about the impact she’s had in my life both as a coach and a wonderful human being.”

    — Anne Digiacomo

  • She brings with her rich life experience and extraordinary positivity, as she has lived the challenges and used discipline and creativity to create a wonderful life for herself, and those around her. In a few short sessions, she motivated and inspired me to move forward on my dreams and visions, and also addressed the inner impediments, as well as outward practices to achieve much more productivity and forward moving action.

    One would be very fortunate to have the opportunity to work with her.”

    — Diane Delfino

  • I highly recommend Susie’s coaching in all the facets of life coaching combined with yoga and wellness. Being coached by Susie, with her gentle and kind approach, I’ve reached to understand myself better, I’ve gained clarity about what I really want and realized the steps to moving forward. I am capable now to look towards my future goals with optimism. Thank you Susie, with immense gratitude.”

Yoga

  • She guided us through a wonderful combination of poses that balanced familiar movements with new challenges. It was a great practice that left me feeling light, refreshed, and energized. I would definitely take another class with her!”

    — Cailin Bell

  • Susie shows a deep knowledge of the practice and clear passion with her teaching. Such a fun and energizing way to start the day, looking forward to another class!”

    — Marin Sgroi

  • Hands  down  the  most  effective  work  out  I  have  ever experienced  done  in  the  shortest  period  of  time.  She  knows  how  to  get  results  and  is  such  a  gift  for  us.”

    — Jeannie Robinson

YoPiBa

  • I was pleased to see a marked improvement.  I know there are many women my age that would love the results that YoPiBa gives, if they only knew.

    I have had another positive side effect.  I truly believe the necessity of concentrating on certain muscles while doing the exercises have resulted in an ability to be better focused once I leave the class.  I sense a clarity that improves my mind and a sense of well being.

    YoPiBa takes some effort but I am loving what it is bringing to my body and my mind.”

    — Gail Sicard

  • She is an excellent teacher who explains the movements and benefits succinctly. I believe even if you did this work out alone you would experience the benefits of strength, better posture and muscle tone.

    I plan on attending her classes on a regular basis and look forward to her DVDS that I can take with me when I travel.”
