Susan Winter Ward's Key Accomplishments Include . . . Internationally recognized yoga instructor, author, and video producer, Susan Winter Ward is the creator of Yoga for the Young at Heart™, a multimedia publisher which publishes an informative and inspiring collection of CDRoms, videos, audio tapes, books and television programs, as well as exciting vacation retreats.

Susan began practicing yoga in 1990 at White Lotus Foundation in Santa Barbara, CA. She was led to yoga seeking relief from 10 years of back pain and was so impressed with the results that within 2 years she became a teacher so she could share the blessings of yoga. Teaching mostly seniors and beginners, Susan has developed a gentle and encouraging teaching style based on the vinyasa style White Lotus Flow Series and is now certifying with John Friend's heart-centered Anusara Yoga. Anusara Yoga's principles of alignment and the concept of honoring the body's innate intelligence are an integral foundation for Susan's teaching.
