Bodywork by Susan

I am proud to share Ashiatsu DeepFeet Bar Therapy on a global stage! From as close as Iowa to as far as Paris, France I have demonstrated how I "Compete with my Feet" in the freestyle category 👣

How I demonstrate in competition is no different than how I practice it everyday with my clients. I don't change it for stage, I just do it under brighter lights!

Whether I am competing or I am teaching,
I am always a massage therapist.

Bar work isn't something you figure out alone 👣👣

An instructor watching every shift in weight, every angle and adjustment, that is what turns a technique into something safe and repeatable. This is what real teaching looks like.

DM me for private coaching opportunities - have bars, will travel!
