BIO: Susana has always been physically active through running, cycling and participating in triathlons. She also likes to hike and have done numerous backpacking trips and leads hikes for a local, vigorous Washington DC area hiking club. She has ample experience teaching people through her volunteer work at places like the National Zoo and through her academic life as a former university professor. She is an avid practitioner of Pilates, which is the perfect complement to an active lifestyle: by working your body from the center out, one can improve posture, increase muscle strength and balance and enhance muscular control of back and limbs. Pilates is useful to athletes looking to improve sports performance and prevent injury, but it is also useful to de-conditioned individuals who may be experiencing aches and pains or muscular imbalances. As a biomedical scientist, Orthopedic Specialist, and Weight Management Specialists, she understands and appreciates the science behind fitness. She is certified by prestigious organizations and can work with people at all fitness levels. Individuals that make the commitment to be active for a lifetime inspire her to continue to be active and use her fitness education to bring clients forms of exercise that are safe and rewarding. When she is not in the studio/gym, you can find her hiking, biking, gardening, birdwatching or cooking.
