Before she decided to pursue yoga as a full time career, Master Teacher Suzie Kellett spent 13 years as a police officer, specialising for 8 years as a crime scene investigator. The consistent exposure to traumatic events took a physical, physiological and psychological toll and eventually led to a diagnosis of post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression and anxiety along with gastro oesophageal reflux disease (GORD). In 2014 Suzie medically retired and started to fully dedicate herself to teaching yoga.

Since then, Suzie has undergone a great deal of study and practice with teachers from all around the world and is the healthiest and happiest she’s ever been. Her deep dedication to her craft, her wealth of wisdom and her engaging and joyous teaching style make Suzie a much loved part of our teacher training team here at Flex. As a as a seasoned E-RYT-500 yoga teacher, a yoga therapist, a mindfulness coach and a student of Zen Buddhism she delivers highest quality trainings to her students.
