Suzanne’s yoga practice began in 2008 out of curiosity for the physical nature of the practice, but she quickly realized that the practice was also supporting her in reducing unnecessary anxiety, as well as, processing the recent loss of a loved one. Suzanne’s training crosses many lineages of the yoga practice - Power Yoga, Kundalini, Integral Yoga, Yin, and Hatha. She is passionate about making classes and spaces accessible to all individuals who desire to participate, particularly individuals with varying disabilities, and her advocacy extends beyond the world of yoga and into the realm of inclusive employment and education. When not teaching, you will most likely find Suzanne enjoying outdoor spaces around Richmond with friends, her husband, and three kids. 

Camille is an NYC transplant, having moved to RVA in December of 2017. Like many yogis, Camille's practice was born in the midst of a life-career-relationship transition, over the summer of 2007. In an effort to figure out life's next steps, Camille took a summer sabbatical of "funemployment" to close out a rocky chapter in LA with intention, trading traffic on the 405 for a few months of life-planning, beach cruising and yoga. Those months spent on the water and on her mat were the catalyst for courageous change in her life.

Landing back in New York at the end of that summer, she found a home at Lyons Den Power Yoga, as a student, then eventually, a teacher of Baptiste Power Yoga.The practices of asana, inquiry, and meditation have consistently provided her with the tools to handle transformative shifts both on and off her mat. More often than not, these shifts have been disruptive, uncomfortable, messy AND necessary. In addition to her Baptiste training, Camille most recently studied with Albina and Roger Rippy for her 300-HR YTT.

As a teacher, Camille aims to help students create a balance of effort and ease, in both their bodies and minds, through the practice of moving past their physical comfort zones into a new place of discovery. Camille's teaching style is a combination of tough love, anatomy-nerd and spiritual TED talk, rolled into one, supported by a well-curated playlist.

Things Camille loves, apart from teaching/practicing yoga: her family (husband Jonathan and daughters Grace and Leonora), salty snacks, watermelon club soda, hanging with friends, Peloton and searching for authentic Asian food in Richmond.
