Sewing with Susie G.

Hi! My name is Susie. I am fluent in Spanish, have been practicing yoga for 10 years now, and have been sewing personally plus professionally for almost 20 years now. As I mentioned, I first started doing yoga 10 years ago. After noticing the subtle changes in my mood, level of awareness and connection with my body, I had discovered the true healing effects yoga had on my every day life. This led me to deepen my practice and travel to Bali, Indonesia for my 200 hour vinyasa flow teacher training intensive through Frog Lotus Yoga (Yoga Alliance Qualified). In my style of teaching yoga, I like to create a practice that encourages students to challenge themselves through dynamic sequence flows that focus on flexibility and balance based on their needs. As for my sewing lessons, I had been sewing several years before I began college in 2004 at IADT Chicago. Graduated with a BFA in 2007 with a major in fashion design. I have been working in the industry whether producing and selling a collection of my own at a Chicago boutique when I first graduated, freelance work for local designers in helping them create their collections' pieces, custom-made garments or costume pieces for individuals, alterations specialty in a corporate setting, and hand-sewing fine art work for a world renowned contemporary artist. Depending on what category you are looking to learn, level, and type of class, I can teach from basics, refreshers, or intermediate level.
