Evolution Yoga with Karen

My mission is to inspire others to live their best lives while finding mind-body-soul balance. Yoga is a way of life, not just something you do on your mat!

A long time yoga student, I have been teaching yoga since I completed my RYT200hrs in Rishikesh, India in February 2018. Plenty has changed in the last few years as we all collectively faced the impact of the Coronavirus pandemic, but I was very lucky to have maintained a varied online community during this time, teaching group classes and 1:1 sessions via Zoom. My classes revolve around Hatha yoga and Vinyasa flow, where I create an all-inclusive environment, so that everyone can enjoy the benefits that yoga can bring to their lives. My Thursday evening online classes offer a mix of Hatha, Yin, Restorative and Yoga Nidra, with a revolving focus each week. I cannot wait to start deep-diving into some of my favourite yoga subjects in my Workshop Series starting again in January 2025.
My current classes explore the connection between breath and movement, body and mind. Building strength, flexibility, balance and having fun! Be prepared for music, Sun Salutations and challenging asanas.

I have just returned from Rishikesh again where I completed a 50hr Yin Yoga training. I studied Yoga for Stress and Anxiety with Yogacampus as part of my CPD, and am available to offer workshops on this for corporate and healthcare settings. Have taken chakra workshops led Anodea Judith, my favourite teacher on this ancient system. Also completed a 25hr CPD training with Schuyler Grant on "Form and Flow: Kula-inspired Vinyasa Flow"

I really explored my yoga practice and studies during lockdown too, which helped me in deepening my own spiritual practice. Alongside this I completed my Reiki Master training, Mental Health First Aider and Shadow Mastery certifications, and am continuing to study for Diplomas in Mindfulness and Shamanic/Energy Healing. I was drawn to these areas in particular through a long held interest in the folklore of the British Isles and the shamanic teachings of the Wheel of the Year , listening with my heart to a calling to work with these energies in my life and in how I teach yoga too.
I am available for private 1:1 classes too, and am keen to get involved with local groups so please get in touch!
