Suzanne Moordhead
In 2006, Suzanne completed her 200-hour training as a Hatha yoga teacher. Since then, she has followed training in Yin yoga, regenerating yoga (or restorative yoga) and yoga Nidra. She has taught at Relais Yoga since its creation in the fall of 2007. Each teacher has her “colors” or her affinities and sources of inspiration. Suzanne's are nature, gentleness and calm, including the silences that feel good. Yoga Nidra, also called meditative sleep yoga, which provides great relaxation for the body and mind, is always offered during Suzanne's classes. Occasionally, she also guides contemplative walks around the Relais Plein Air. The yoga that Suzanne shares is one of discovering well-being and self-compassion.
Carole Ann Bilodeau
Carole Ann discovered yoga in 2008. Her practice helped her deal with the stress she was experiencing both in her personal life and at work. She continued to find herself on her mat for the feeling of physical and mental well-being that Hatha yoga, yoga Nidra and restorative yoga classes brought her. She learned through her practice how to adapt postures to her body using blocks, straps and bolsters.
