Susan is fascinated by the practice of Nia and the ways it enhances her creativity, imagination and physical ability to play the flute. Her Blue Belt in Nia, combined with her qualification as a Hatha Yoga teacher (200hr, RT Yoga Alliance) and study of Body Mapping have given her a solid working knowledge of human anatomy and its relevance to playing a musical instrument.

Susan has lived and worked in Belfast, Northern Ireland, since moving there from the USA in 2000. She holds an MA in Teaching German and English from Indiana University and has performed as Co-Principal Flute of the Playing for Pleasure Orchestra in Belfast for 12 years, an inclusive organisation which she also chairs. Susan teaches flute privately and is preparing for her LTCL Flute Performance Diploma. She has studied with Karen Moratz, Dr Jessica Quiñones, Dr Lea Pearson and Nicola Woodward.
