Meet Karen
I'm so excited you are here! With over 25 years of experience as a dedicated yoga practioner I have embraced the transformative power of yoga in my life. For the past several years I have been certified as a 200-hour yoga instructor and also received my SUP yoga certification in 2022.
As a mom and a professional navigating a demanding career, I understand how stress can often cloud our daily lives. Yoga has been my refuge, helping me cultivate peace and calm amidst the chaos. I have a deep passion for vinyasa yoga where the rhythm of breath and movement allows me to break free from the outside world. You will often find me blissfully upside down, exploring the exhilaration that comes from the inversions - both externally and mentally.
Through my teaching, I aim to share the serenity and strength that yoga brings, empowering others to find their edge and inner peace. Join me on this transformative yoga adventure where every bend and breath paves the way for a more centered and fulfilling life. Let's flow together!
Meet Carl
I bring a diverse background in physical pursuits, from basketball to mountain biking, volleyball and lacrosse, and has channeled this passion into yoga. Originally drawn to yoga for medical reasons, I quickly discovered its profound spiritual and physical rewards
I have travelled around the world to train with and learn from world-class teachers. I have completed several short courses and certifications from renowned teachers like Shiva Rea, Janet Stone, Schuyler Grant, and Patrick Beach. I offer dynamic classes that blend strong athletic movements with playfulness, encouraging students to embrace challenges and find their personal path. I also teach chakra balancing, subtle movement, and beginner-friendly yoga.
In addition to teaching in the studio, I have led many large yoga gatherings with live music throughout Northern California and have hosted many corporate yoga events.
I'm excited to grow, learn and fall (yes, it's okay to fall) together!
