Susie Jones
Susie is a Licensed Physical Therapist with experience working in outpatient orthopedics, inpatient acute care and rehab settings. She has extensive training in manual therapy, and strength & exercise progression.
With a lifelong passion for physical fitness, including indoor and outdoor volleyball, and running she found her way into Bend Hot Yoga in 2015. Susie claims “I instinctively knew for several years before I entered the studio that I would love hot yoga, but was intimidated and never considered myself a “yoga person,” which is evident by my tight hamstrings from all the running!” However, she was hooked after her first class! Susie loves the heat, sweat, and to workout – claiming it as the perfect trifecta.
When Inferno Hot Pilates was brought to BHY, Susie jumped on the opportunity to bridge her Physical Therapy knowledge with group exercise. Her love for IHP seamlessly translates in the way she teaches students to connect with their bodies in order to gain strength, body confidence, and fitness. Her approach to teaching is enthusiastic and genuine!
Susie’s favorite time of year is summer time with the long hours of daylight to get outside and run by the river, or to get up in the High Lakes on a trail. One of Susie’s favorite quotes: “No One Cares How Much You Know, Until They Know How Much You Care” –D. Keith Kleven.
