Susan Whitmer teaches chair yoga and mat yoga for active agers at the Denton Senior Center. She began her yoga journey as a teenager and became an RYT in 2016. Susan uses principles of Applied Yoga Anatomy+ Muscle Activation (AYAMA) to ensure that every movement is purposeful, safe, and effective for the maturing body.
As a retired academic librarian, Susan brings a researcher's heart to the mat, using the latest studies to deepen her understanding of senior wellness. She believes that while the science of yoga is serious, the practice shouldn't be. She loves to infuse her classes with a sense of play, reminding her students that "Pizza is yoga if you stretch the cheese."
