Karen has 25 years of personal yoga practice and 15 years teaching experience. She is a fully qualified Yoga Alliance teacher with the Yoga Campus, London, UK. She is currently undertaking further advanced yoga teacher training with her teachers, and considers herself a lifelong student of yoga. Continually curious and evolving, finding methods within the wider field of yoga that allow for more easeful movement patterns for the body and a more peaceful mind, believing one is not possible without the other.
Karen's classes incorporate asana, relaxation, pranayama and meditation. Her teaching style has its traditional roots within flow yoga and her classes can be dynamic or slow. They always have an emphasis on feeling into a pose to find the shape that works best for your body as it is in that moment. With further studies and teacher training currently being taken in Somatics and Embodied Yoga and intelligent alignment focussed yoga, she interweaves these more progressive areas within her classes. She also enjoys the use of resistance bands within some classes to help assist in strengthening muscles to aid in releasing long held tension patterns.
Karen also teaches yin and restorative forms of yoga as she believes these are essential practices within yoga to help create balance in our modern lives. She is currently undertaking further training in the use of myofascial release (MFR) and TCM 5 Element Theory within Yin which she interweaves within these classes.
