Sumerlin fell in love with Power Yoga the first time she practiced in 2012. As a former Martial Artist, Sumerlin loved the rigor of power asana. She loved the sweatiness. She loved then and still does now, that her mind, body and spirit are challenged when she gets onto her mat. This love for the practice drove Sumerlin to get trained and share her yoga with others. Sumerlin loves to facilitate growth in each practitioner. Sumerlin’s core values are creativity, growth and love. Every time she teaches she supports her students to be moved by curiosity, growth and love both on the mat and in life. Working with teachers to become more powerful and skilled in sharing their yoga is one of her favorite ways to share yoga.Sumerlin has logged over 300 hours in trainings, in addition to her certifications, to learn and grow as a practitioner and teacher herself. The bulk of Sumerlin’s training hours have been done in conjunction with the Baptiste Institute. Sumerlin is a Tier 2 Baptiste Power Yoga Educator. Sumerlin has taught yoga in Georgia, Tennessee, Texas and Washington.

E-RYT Certified Baptiste Power Yoga Instructor, Greg Holmes, motivates students of every age, body type and energy with his special mix of power peppered with lightness (and a pun or two) to discover their own strength, breath and vitality. His career in dance on cruise ships, stage shows, television, and on the Las Vegas Strip, ultimately introduced him to the long-lasting benefits of a powerful yoga practice.
Once retired from dance, Greg began body building again (he originally began at age 17), winning several trophies including the Vegas Classic Masters Championship. After rupturing his bicep, this body builder was ready to trade muscle size for a more healthful, flexible, and spiritual practice.
With his wife, Susan, they discovered the strength building and passion that could be developed through the solid yoga practice at a local Baptiste Power Vinyasa class (led by Zeeky Vincent) and life was never the same! The strong vinyasa flow combined with great inspiration encouraged a new vitality for both.
Greg attended Baron Baptiste’s Teacher Training, received his 200 Yoga Alliance certification and is trained in Yin and the Art of Assisting, the Science of Stretching and Mastering the Art of Yoga Sequencing. He has also studied yoga, meditation and yoga nidra in Bali, Indonesia with Zuna Yoga.
As a TruFusion Studio Senior Master yoga instructor, Greg is on the yoga teacher-training team, presents Hands-On Assists teacher trainings, yoga classes, workshops and international yoga retreats with his wife Susan. Greg and Susan also present at numerous yoga festivals and create continuing education credits for yoga instructors. Since 2020, they offer online live classes and an on-demand class library.

ERYT 500 Certified Yoga Instructor Susan Holmes’ enthusiasm and presence encourages the continuous discovery of all that is possible within us. Her 20-year career in dance on cruise ships, stage shows, television and on the Las Vegas Strip, ultimately introduced her to the long-lasting benefits of an asana practice.
Susan’s first yoga teaching experience was backstage at the MGM hotel as a warm-up for Tommy Tune and the cast of EFX in 1998. In 2001, she graduated Summa Cumme Laude in Information Systems and left the stage for an office. Weathering the effects of long hours behind a desk, she jumped deep into yoga and brought her husband, Greg, along with her.
Together they discovered the strength building and passion that could be developed through the solid yoga practice at a local Baptiste Power Vinyasa class (led by Zeeky Vincent) and life was never the same!
The strong vinyasa flow combined with great inspiration encouraged a new vitality for both. Susan received her 200 Yoga Alliance certification through Baron Baptiste’s Teacher Training and is trained in Yin and the Art of Assisting. She has also studied hatha/vinyasa yoga, meditation and yoga nidra in Bali, Indonesia with Zuna Yoga for her 300-hour teacher training.
As a TruFusion Studio Senior Master instructor, Susan, with her husband Greg, present 200-hour yoga teacher trainings, Hands-On Assists teacher trainings, yoga classes, workshops and international yoga retreats. She and Greg also present at numerous yoga festivals and create continuing education credits for yoga instructors. Since 2020, they offer online live classes and an on-demand class library.

E-RYT 200 / E-RYT 500, YACEP | 18,000 plus Teaching / Training Hours.
Born in Akron, Ohio and resided there until 1995. Relocated to Las Vegas in 1995, which is Zeek’s permanent residence. Zeek found the practice and study of yoga in 1993- while on a vacation in Las Vegas. Since then it’s been a passion of sharing, giving, and loving!!! Zeek felt the practice of yoga would excel his flexibility- and that it did! But the greatest movement past the flexibility was how the practice of yoga ignited a spiritual flame. That was the pivotal moment in Zeek’s life, that he began to teach yoga with a style that involved “life”. He’s been forever changed.

FAQs

Yes! If you hold a desire for personal growth on any level.
-
No! To first gain flexibility for yoga is an overstated and exhausted myth. The practice of yoga requires only the “willingness!” Flexibility, discipline, consistency, etc will all come in time; as everything does. Consider- the individual who places the foot behind his/her head had to be a beginner also, had to be inflexible first.
An avid yoga practice is not a determining factor as to whether you are ready for “Training.” Your years of physical practice-OR- lack thereof, does not draw conclusions in regards to your readiness.
Step into the program “open wide” regardless of your experience level.
