Suzanne Larsen

Suzanne has practiced and taught yoga for over 25 years. In recent years, her work has deepened through focused study in SomaYoga, clinical somatics, nervous system regulation, and pain science—shaped both by her teachers and by lived experience supporting individuals and families navigating hypermobility spectrum disorders, dysautonomia, chronic pain, migraine, and complex stress.

As a trainer of Yoga North’s SomaYoga therapy, through Main Street Yoga - Stoughton’s teacher training programs, she is known for her ability to translate complex concepts—nervous system function, pain mechanisms, somatic learning—into language that is both accessible and empowering, without diminishing their depth.

Her teaching emphasizes education, skill-building, and compassion rather than fixing or forcing. Students often describe her classes as deeply thoughtful, quietly powerful, and unexpectedly demanding in the most nourishing way—inviting presence, curiosity, and honest engagement with what is actually here.

Suzanne is a yoga therapist, educator, and lifelong student of yoga whose work bridges ancient wisdom with contemporary neuroscience, pain science, and somatic education.

At the heart of Suzanne’s instruction is a deep reverence for yoga as a path of inquiry and relationship, not performance. Drawing from classical yogic texts such as the Yoga Sutras, she views yoga as a discipline of discernment—learning how to listen, sense, and respond wisely to the changing conditions of body, breath, mind, and environment. This philosophical foundation informs her contemporary work in neuro-fitness: slower, subtler, choice-based practices that support agency, resilience, and functional change over time.

Her work is grounded in service, scholarship, and the belief that learning to relate to oneself with clarity and kindness is both ancient practice and radical medicine.
