My family and extended family just completed a wonderful 2 consecutive day Yoga morning at Avila Beach, CA. There were 10 of us one morning and 4 the next. Sue’s gracious and calm led Yoga session was adaptable to all ages (kids ages 5 – 12, and adults up to age 60+!) If you haven’t already experienced Sue as an instructor, don’t procrastinate, check out any of her classes as I’m sure they are all excellent! (I am a user of Yoga and Spin classes and they both are excellent!)

Nancy’s Success Story

Dear Sue, Thank you so much for your excellent instruction in your Gentle Yoga Class. I just wanted you to know how much it has helped me. I had a knee, groin and lower back injury that just was not getting any better after over a year of other alternative modalities. It took the joy and action out of my life. I just wanted to cry with the constant pain. I could not sleep because of the pain and discomfort. All I wanted to do when I got home from work was lay on my bed. It dragged on so long I thought: “Is this it? Is this how it’s going to be for the rest of my life?” This was unusual for me as I am an active person. I like to jog, hike, bike, explore and have adventure in my life. I feel I am a very young 60 year old person. But at that time with all the pain I felt like a very old and broken 90 year old. When I first started your class I could not even do the simplest balancing positions. Now I am pain free and look forward to your class and the great way I feel doing the positions. I do not want to miss a single class, for the joy of feeling fantastic is something I will never take for granted again. I want to thank you for giving that back to me. I want to thank you for showing me all the possible modified positions till I gained my strength and confidence back. What was such an effort is now like a beautiful flowing dance. Now I can add Yoga to the list of active things I love to do. I can never thank you enough. You are a great teacher and I feel so very lucky to have joined your class. Yours truly in health and joy, Nancy

Bryan’s Success Story

I had never been a very active person and my weight was always one of my main struggles. I worked with Sue on and off for about six years. I had never been a very active person and my weight was always one of my main struggles. After a long time of not working out, I went back to Sue and realized how badly I needed a life change. Sue helped me by challenging me in my workouts, keeping me accountable for working out three days a week, and even giving me tips on healthy things to eat. I have gone from 284 pounds to 197, gained strength, and I feel so much better thanks to Sue and her training.

My journey with Sue began in October last year. I have participated in the M/W/F Tabata Bootcamp class that she offers at my local gym. It is now the end of February and I am now down 20lbs, and am much stronger. I truly admire Sue’s committment to all her clients, and her contagious enthusiasm. We are all different sizes, shapes, and abilities, yet Sue has us all working to each of our fullest potentials. Class never gets old because she keeps the circuits fresh each time. With her encouragement I have now added her Powerhouse Spin once a week and love it!

Darcie

Sue’s prenatal yoga class gave me a weekly time to relax, move my body, and meet other moms-to-be. I enjoyed the class enough to sign up for a second one, and looked forward to it every week! Sue helps guide the students through new poses and tailors the class to the participants. Definitely recommend taking this class during pregnancy!

Laura

I highly recommend this class for anyone in their 2nd or 3rd Trimester. Sue Conrad does a great job modifying poses to meet everyone’s needs wherever they may be in their practice and pregnancy. Ladies take this hour for yourselves to connect with your breath and your baby and help prepare your body for the miraculous arrival of your little one.

Monica

Sue has been my fitness instructor for about 2 yrs now.(Boot Camp, Kick Boxing, Cycling and Private Training sessions) No matter what shape you are in, Sue will help to improve your over all heath,while making you feel and look amazing! Thanks Sue for all that you do. 🙂

Susan

Sue Conrad is a great instructor! Two months ago, I was in the worst shape of my life and after Sue’s pilates and strength training several time a week, along with cardio, I have lost 29 pounds! Sue had plenty of modified moves for me, when I wasn’t able to keep up with the class. Her patience and encouragement kept me coming back. I highly recommend any class she teaches!

Jacqueline

Sue was an absolute dynamo to train with. She always challenged me and helped me push beyond what I though was my limit. She taught me the importance of core strength , which as a long time runner, I had always neglected. I trained with Sue to get in shape for my wedding and it worked. I gained a lot of muscle in my arms, toned everywhere overall, and shaved 35 minutes off my marathon time – I’m certain due to the core strength she convinced me mattered enough to build. She was always fun, had a wonderful sense of humor, constantly changed workout routines to keep them interesting and challenging, and she stuck with me even when I was frustrated with myself for not progressing “fast enough.” I would recommend Sue as a personal trainer to anyone who wants to get healthy or healthier.

Katie

I have had the pleasure of having Sue as my fitness instructor for several months now. (Spin, Kick boxing and Boot Camp) She is very encouraging and welcoming to those of us “new” to the workout scene. I love her classes for so many reasons…her positive, upbeat attitude, great music selection, constantly changing routines and her gentle nudges to get us back on track. I look forward to working out with Sue again this year!!
