Founder
Suzanna
Founder Suzanna Calava is acting currently as Peak Group Global COO. Suzanna has over 10 years of business experience, property development, Bachelor of Commerce and Diploma in Financial Planning working for many years in Accounting and Finance Firms, as well as Master Yoga Certification.
Suzanna first began yoga as a way to assist her to manage weight loss. She returned from an overseas exchange as a student in Germany, having put on what she saw as unwanted weight. With hot yoga she was able to accelerate her weight loss and achieve better than expected results. Further to this, she realised yoga was not just about improved fitness levels and weight loss results; but also about feeling good inside, an improved mindset and a focus on personal health. Suzanna started her career by completing a Bachelor of Commerce and Diploma in Financial Planning, working for many years in accounting and professional service firms and this business skill has been the bedrock of the success of Peak Physique Hot Yoga and the transformation to Peak Group Global.
Apart from yoga and business, Suzanna’s passions are travelling, cooking authentic dishes from around the world, going to the beach and spending time with family.
