Pulsation Yoga- Arlington Heights

Susan is a graduate of Kathy’s 200 hour teaching training, and has been practicing yoga for over a decade. Susan’s practice originally started as a supplement to her distance running as a “stretch and strengthen” exercise. But over the years she realized she got much more from yoga than simply stretching and strengthening, and it has become her central focus. Yoga is how she connects with herself, as a way to look inward without judgment, to reflect on the good, the bad and everything in between in a peaceful and respectful way. She works to carry that peace and reflection to better herself both on and off the mat. 

Susan teaches a flowing practice suited to her students' needs while pushing them to their highest potential.  

Dana began her yoga practice about a decade ago and has been practicing consistently for the last few years. She decided to complete YTT 200 at Pulsation in the fall of 2018 to not only further her growth as a yoga student but also to assist others in advancing their own practice and overall well being. The benefits of Yoga and the philosophy behind it nicely complements her current practice as a social worker, and Dana would like to continue to explore how she can combine social work and yoga to foster student growth both inside and outside of the studio.

Alison started to practice simply as a way to get exercise, but as time went on yoga became critical in helping to deal with her General Anxiety Disorder. Now as a teacher, Alison strives to help students feel and see the benefits yoga offers the mind, our self-confidence, and how it can become a part of our lives even when we step off the mat. Her teaching style is vinyasa flow and in the style of Anusara™. She believes it is important to build strength, flexibility, and balance through proper alignment. She tries to inspire a sense of community that creates a fun, rejuvenating, and relaxing environment.
