Susan Agrios

Agrios Mindfitness
Founder & CEO
Edmonton, Alberta
Agrios MINDFITNESS (Mindfulness Fitness) was born in the connective tissues between health and wellbeing. Susan Agrios changes lives. Online and in person, she teaches fitness, mindfulness and yoga for people and businesses the world over. Before MINDFITNESS, Susan was a K-12 teacher and fitness trainer. In the classroom, she inspired her students’ curiosities. And as a world medalist herself, she helped recreational to Olympic athletes reach peak fitness. But in both worlds, no matter their efforts, she saw people were stressed and anxious. Determined to find a fresh way to help, Susan took a leap of faith and set course for India. There she studied yoga and meditation from masters, swamis and gurus. Then Susan brought those teachings home. Today, with her holistic expertise in education, fitness and yoga, she inspires people to practice kindness and lead healthier lives—physically, mentally, and socially. Susan guides schools and businesses to embrace fitness and mindfulness. Through movement and breath, her techniques help others build strong connections to their bodies and minds. The positive effects on focus, emotions and health are profound. Conferences, hikes and retreats benefit from Susan’s kind expertise. Her beKIND Mindfulness and beGRATEFUL school assemblies help students and staff conquer their stress and anxieties. Susan is also the creator of beKIND Mindfitness Triathlons—a first for Canada. And with what is now a global movement, over 30,000 kids, teens and adults have learned to meditate because of her beKIND Mindfulness Challenge. Simply put, Susan gets results.
