Susan Mankowski, LMT, BFA in Dance, has been a certified Breema practitioner and Instructor in Santa Cruz, the Breema Center, and throughout the United States since 1998. She is a Staff member and Instructor at the Breema Center since 2012. She resides offsite in Wisconsin and instructs at Breema Center Intensives, Hummingbird Valley weekends, and weekly online Self-Breema classes.

As early as I can remember, I wanted to connect to life through touch, and movement. This interest grew into a formalized study of dance, massage therapy, and other somatic modalities.
Since 1995, my study of Breema introduced to me the a new dimension of consciousness and presence which is available as an experience of the self, supported by body-mind connection. The meaning of Breema, which is "the activity of the body when I am present," has fueled my professional studies and embodied my life with a new essential posture for thinking, feeling, and moving.
Over time, all my studies, practices, and experiences create a center within myself, allowing a direct connection to my life, becoming the foundation for discovery of meaning and self-understanding.
