Karen teaches Gentle Hatha Yoga & PreNatal Yoga.
Karen’s journey with Yoga began about 30 years ago. Her first “yoga-like” experience occurred during the birth of her first child. She said, “it was like my heart kept opening wider and wider throughout the labor and delivery process”. From that time on, Karen participated in yoga classes, as well as studying yoga philosophy and meditation. But, it was as a result of her husband’s injury from falling off the roof of the family home that she really became serious about yoga. Loving family, friends, and yoga are what helped her through a very challenging part of her life. To help him recover, Karen began teaching him chair yoga. She was amazed at the improvement resulting from these sessions --- and, she realized how much she enjoyed helping others with yoga. So, she entered Yoga Teacher Training at Yoga Matrix in Dr. Phillips, receiving her Yoga Teacher Certification in 2007. Karen is now a registered member of Yoga Alliance, the national organization which certifies yoga teachers. She is also certified to teach pre-natal yoga. Karen has taught Gentle and All Level Hatha Yoga and Pre-Natal Yoga, at Yoga Matrix for the past 2 years.
Karen is originally from the suburbs of New York City. There she owned and operated retail stores, selling workout clothing and jewelry. She and her husband are the proud parents of 2 adult sons, and the grandparents to 2 adorable little ones. In 2003, they moved to the Orlando area to be closer to the grandchildren.
