About me
About me
I am a Teacher, humbled and inspired by my students’ transformation.
Whether teaching alone or with my partner, Russell, we draw from life-long careers in the movement and healing arts.
Our hearts are blessed to witness your freedom from self-limiting habits and achieve results beyond your expectations.
My Philosophy of Care
Meeting iconic dancer Anna Halprin in 1975 inspired me for 45 years as her student.
I was a wounded dancer seeking a life on my legs. Sciatica stopped me in my tracks. I needed to heal.

“2012 - I found Suki Munsell’s workshop “Yoga of Walking” to be both informative and delightfully playful at the same time. Suki's ability to observe the student walking was impressive, as well as her attention to the students particular ...”

“The Dynamic Walking curriculum you have set up is great: it's easy to follow, just the right amount of material per segment/lesson, and I love the bite size, small steps concept you rely on throughout.
One of the reasons I felt it impo...”

“After only 1 week of classes with Dr. Suki, I noticed that my chest stays open all day long, the neck pain disappeared and I bring more attention to my posture all the time during the day. As a positive side effect, I feel more happy and...”
