Susan Baker

With 25 years in the fitness industry and 17 years at Canyon Ranch, Susan brings her passion for movement and wellness to each class she teaches. From dance, yoga, and strength training to water aerobics and meditation, Susan’s expertise covers it all — including barre, breathwork, drumming, and singing bowls.

Susan first came to our celebrated Arizona wellness resort as a guest 20 years ago and immediately felt at home, drawn to its holistic approach to blending physical and spiritual well-being. Over the years, she’s built deep, meaningful connections with guests, but one moment that stands happened with a guest who, with tears in her eyes, shared that she never thought she’d dance again after losing her daughter — until Susan’s class helped her rediscover that joy.

Outside of Canyon Ranch, Susan loves acting in local theater, cooking and catering, and relaxing with a good movie. She lives by the words, "The greatest wealth is health," and takes pride in guiding others toward a happier, healthier life.
