Meet Your Instructors:

Through her studies of movement and art, Suzanne Frazer (E-RYT 500, Open Sky Yoga, BS, Buffalo State College), developed an awareness and deep curiosity for the methods in which the mind and body coincide and align. The unique and unassuming way both art and yoga appear naturally in daily life is the essence of what guides her as a teacher, through creative, mindful, and compassionate instruction.
