Antonio Sausys (B.A. Psychology, M.A. body-oriented Psychotherapy) is a somatic health practitioner and yoga professor specializing in one-on-one yoga therapy for people with medical and emotional conditions, both chronic and acute.

During his career, Antonio discovered a key correlation between modern body-oriented psychotherapy and ancient yogic teachings, and has integrated the best practices from both worlds. He applies specific yogic techniques for individuals to create a “Yoga Sadhana”. This is a specific and personalized yogic routine that best serves the individual’s needs and abilities, integrating mind, body and spirit to fully embrace the experience of life.

He studied with yoga masters and teachers such as Swami Maitreyanada, Indra Devi, Ram Dass and Larry Payne. He continued his professional development with training in Foot Reflexology, Swedish Therapeutic Massage, the Degriefing Process and Reiki.

Antonio teaches and lectures at U.C. Berkeley, Alive and Well, Institute of Conscious Body Work, College of Marin, is a faculty of the American Yoga College, and is the former Honorary Secretary of the International Yoga Federation for North America.

Antonio Sausys resides in Marin County with a thriving yoga practice throughout the Bay Area. In addition to speaking engagements and workshops, he is an accomplished opera singer, accordion player, actor and is fluent in four languages (Spanish, English, Portuguese and Italian).
