Iyengar Yoga with Suzie Goldstein in Northampton

I have never really done yoga classes before and I love Suzie’s Wednesday morning class! She explains and demonstrates and then helps if necessary. Great class!

Suzie is one of my favorite yoga teachers, with classes online as well as in person at the beautiful space of Karuna Yoga in Northampton MA. Suzie holds high standards and still teaches with humor. She has inspired me to take more time for myself, as well as guided slow healing of a tough shoulder injury. I am a certified yoga teacher myself and continue to learn from her wise guidance!

Suzie Goldstein is an extraordinarily gifted, and certified, Iyengar yoga instructor. I have been attending her classes and workshops for over 4 years. From Suzie, I have learned how to move my body, how to understand my body, and more about its abilities to help me look inward. Under her attentive teaching style, I have changed how I stand, how I breath, how I feel. I am profoundly grateful to be her student.

Suzie is SO knowledgeable about Iyengar yoga and is such a skillful practitioner and teacher. As an older person with osteoporosis, I completely trust Suzie to keep me safe and injury free while also helping me strengthen my body. Finding her was a gift.

I have been taking yoga with Suzie for several years. I had gone through a time of increasing body aches and stiffness, a bout with frozen shoulders, and finally followed through on taking yoga, as I'd been telling myself to do for a long time. It was the best decision I've ever made for my body, and for my overall health and well-being. Suzie is a truly gifted teacher, and I think the Iyengar method of practice is the best. Suzie knows what every muscle group in the body does and she guides us into poses in such a gentle and deliberate way, focusing on alignment. She has shown me that my body can do things I never thought possible. In my 60's now, I am more limber than I have ever been. Suzie also grounds her practice and instruction in the philosophy and legacy of yoga and of Iyengar yoga in particular. I am so grateful for her instruction.

Suzie Goldstein is an excellent yoga teacher--caring and challenging, as she should be! Each class is a wonderful adventure.

Suzie Goldstein is an exceptional yoga teacher. Private yoga sessions with Suzie have been hugely helpful to me. I believe she has helped me avoid surgery and I know she has helped improve my physical strength, flexibility, balance, and mental health. Her instruction is skillfully personalized; her attitude is unfailingly positive and supportive; and her knowledge of Iyengar yoga is remarkable. To top it off, I love her dazzling smile and sense of humor!

Suzie is such a talented teacher! She is kind, supportive, and full of knowledge about the body. She works with beginners so patiently! I quickly felt stronger and more flexible.
