In 2000, she relocated to Manhattan Beach, California, where she built a full-time fitness career

Trainer for Bally’s. Encouraged by her mentor, she began studying the Pilates Method,
recognizing how seamlessly it complemented her background in fitness. She later joined the
Manhattan Country Club, where she worked for seven years as a highly sought-after personal
trainer.
Alongside her professional career, Susie pursued her dream of becoming a multisport athlete—
competing in marathons, long-distance hikes, USCF bike racing, open water swimming, and
ultimately bringing it all together in triathlon.
Today, Susie is passionate about helping individuals achieve a balanced, total training
program through Pilates, strength and conditioning, and metabolic and cardiovascular training.
A lifelong learner, she continually attends workshops, researches the latest health and movement
science, and works with mentors to refine her skills. Susie trains a wide spectrum of clients and
views personal training as an ever-evolving journey unique to each individual.
She is married to Curtis Green and has a family of four rescue dogs. She guest lectures
and teaches fitness classes at Corporate Conferences for Destination Concepts in
Southern California. Her interests include triathlons and animal rescue.
