Pivotal Life Coaching

After a decade old lumbar injury followed by a c-section in 2020, my core was a mess. My Ortho was suggesting back surgery since PT and medicinal treatments were no longer effective in providing relief. A friend suggested Pilates after she struggled with similar issues and had found relief years prior. I did my research and found Susan teaching only a few miles away from my home. She had decades of pilates experience with an understanding of anatomy, physiology, rehabilitation, nutrition and overall wellness. I am thankful every day that I found her as I am now able to exercise regularly without any discomfort. I continue to see her weekly, absolutely love her and can’t praise her enough!

I have known and worked with Susan for several years. As a pilates educator and mentor, she is outstanding and very supportive. I took her amazing Ode To The Spine workshop and can't wait for Sexy Shoulders. She is rich in knowledge and you can tell she enjoys spreading the wealth around. More recently, I have been seeing her as a health and wellness coach. In truth, even though I have given thought to becoming one, I wasn't sure if it would really make a difference because I consider myself a person with strong discipline; but WOW! I can't believe how far I have come in just three weeks of working with her. She thinks outside the box and combined with all her years of personal exploration, she can open my eyes to different ways I relate to myself and others. Having an objective and non-judgmenta person to answer to, makes a world of difference in moving forward.I can not thank her enough!

I’ve enjoyed working with Susan very much. She started out as my Pilates coach and now we are working together on a comprehensive health and wellness program. Her approach to coaching is very thoughtful, caring and compassionate. During our sessions she listens attentively to my responses and formulates our discussion into meaningful and actionable goals. Over the years I’ve done different types of coaching, etc.; however, I find Susan’s approach to be most effective. She really understands what I’m saying and helps me to think differently and how to set appropriate goals. I highly recommend Susan’s services to anyone who is looking to actively make changes in their lives.

Life changing. That’s how I sum up my most fortunate meeting with Susan. I’ve been working closely with Susan over the past 2 years. I have found her to be a grounded and well-balanced blend of warm and funny with no BS professionalism. In addition to her vast knowledge in evidence-based health and fitness, I have always felt safe with Susan. This has been paramount in making difficult and necessary life changes. Susan has been an invaluable force and resource. As a direct result of working with her, I'm healthier. I’m happier. I’m thriving in ways and areas of which I only dreamed. I’ll always be grateful to Susan and highly recommend her services to anyone whose goals are both specific and general in pursuit of flourishing in a life well-lived.

I have been training with Susan for several years. She is knowledgeable, caring, and attentive. She also adapts programs to my specific health issues, which is extremely helpful. I would highly recommend her.
