Thankful and Grateful
You know – I never really thought I would get into something like yoga. But I can tell you right now, there’s something really therapeutic about Karen’s classes , and her unique way of connecting with everyone in the room. I just walk out every time feeling like a new person. 10/10 would highly recommend. She’s the best!

I was a very anxious and stressed out bride and I wanted to find someone or something to help cope with what I was experiencing as a crazy bride. A friend suggested to get a yoga instructor, after calling some places I found Karen who came to my home the day before my wedding and guided me and my 4 bridesmaids through the most amazing yoga class I had ever experienced. Her calm voice and beautiful nature set me up for a calm and relaxed state of mind. I don’t know how she did it but she managed to take me away to a place where I wasn’t focused on my wedding for that brief moment, it was exactly what I needed. Karen is a true angel and I will be forever grateful for her guidance

She currently delivers a Mindfulness and Yoga program weekly at the Brisbane Youth Detention Centre which she has co-developed and facilitates it to diverse range of clients. Karen has displayed a natural ability to work through various procedural and operational requirements and emerging issues with calmness and commitment. Her passion for working with women and Young people is reflected in her practice as she engages with challenging clients, being inclusive, culturally sensitive and patient. She consistently displays excellent work ethic, pro-active and professional attitude that has allowed us to develop a productive working relationship that benefits all stakeholders.

As a group leader in a busy pre-prep classroom, I am always so happy to see Karen to turn up to do her weekly yoga class. Her understanding of the social, and physical requirements of young people is inspiring. Karens gentle nurturing technique provides a lovely sense of calm and prepares the class for a busy day of learning and play. The children have formed strong bonds and friendships with her during the year. Karen is a wonderful mother, a lovely friend, an excellent teacher and beautiful human. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.

Ive been doing Yoga over many years but would have to be classed as a beginner, always beginning again and again and never quite feeling like I can do it. Always looking at other students thinking I shouldn’t be here; I can’t do half of what the others do. Now after all these years I have finally got it. I relax, shut my eyes and breathe and stretch to where ever my body will allow, without any are concern for others. Its just me and my yoga. My enjoyment now of yoga classes is because of Karens inspirational teachings, her clear voice giving instruction, her quiet movement around the room encouraging each student to go that little bit deeper. There is ambience in the room, from the start to the finish all created by Karen, so grateful to have her guidance as are future students.
