FAQ

What if I am new to yoga?

Recovery Yoga Meetings are perfect for people with no yoga experience. Class is accessible to students at all levels of practice and stages of recovery. You participate at your comfort level.

Nope. All are welcome.

Comfortable clothes that allow you to move.

What will I need for class?

Just you, and a phone or computer to access Zoom. (Optional: a yoga mat or beach towel; a yoga block, yoga bolster, pillow, or cushion; water)

 
I have been going to Recovery Yoga with Suz since 2014 and truly cannot imagine my life without it. In addition to helping me quit drinking, I also gained the courage to seek treatment for my eating disorder.

My favorite aspect of the class is how warm and included and safe Suz makes you feel regardless of what you’re looking to recover from. Anyone whose life has been touched by addiction in some way is welcome. She really honors and validates a student’s courage to show up at all since they might be new to recovery meetings and yoga, both of which can be intimidating enough by themselves. ... Suz just does an amazing job at holding the space so everyone gets what they need from the practice.
