Suzanna Dupee is a Nationally Certified Bodyworker, a NC Licensed Massage and Bodywork Therapist, and a Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga Teacher. She is also an artist, an athlete, a poet, an activist, a student, and a dreamer! 

Zanna grew up surrounded by movement and developed a love and awe for the wisdom and complexity of the human body at a very early age. At only 18 years old, she completed her massage therapy training at the Body Therapy Institute in Siler City, NC. 

Since graduation, she has cultivated a deep interest in functional alignment principals. She is influenced by the work of Tom Myers' Anatomy Trains (structural integration) and draws extensively from this method. She continues to learn something new every day from the incredible physical therapists and trainers at Balanced Physical Therapy and Movement Studio in Carrboro, North Carolina. 

Suzanna is also a student of Anusara Yoga, a system that emphasizes the importance of proper alignment in the prevention and healing of injuries in the body. She weaves the Anusara principals into her massage therapy practice. 

An avid runner, swimmer, and cyclist herself, Suzanna loves working with athletes of all levels and abilities, and introducing them to the power of massage and yoga. 

Suzanna also does freelance graphic and web design. You can visit her design website at [www.suzannadesign.com]

As of January 2009, Suzanna is returning to school to earn her degree in Exercise and Sports Science, with the eventual goal of becoming a physical therapist.

Zanna's favorite poem is the “Sunflower Sutra” by Allen Ginsberg, which she wholeheartedly recommends everyone read and carry around in their pocket.

“We’re not our skin of grime...
we’re all beautiful golden sunflowers inside...”
– A. Ginsberg
