Are you the owner of Earth Yoga Sanctuary?
Welcome to Earth Yoga Sanctuary, a haven for yoga enthusiasts located in the Swindon area. Karen, a passionate and dedicated yoga teacher, is at the helm of this sanctuary, providing a space where yoga is accessible to everyone.
Karen's journey as a yoga teacher began in South Africa, where she underwent three years of intensive study in the classic Iyengar tradition. She is a certified Iyengar teacher and has been teaching since 2006. Her own practise has inspired her to evolve her classes into the Vinyasa (Flow) style, while still maintaining the emphasis on Iyengar's principles of breath, alignment, and the use of props when necessary.
The studio at Earth Yoga Sanctuary is designed with beginners in mind. It is equipped with all the props necessary to help students achieve the maximum benefit from each pose, regardless of their flexibility level. Karen regularly conducts beginner classes, workshops, and courses, ensuring that students receive dedicated support and guidance to begin or enhance their yoga journey.
Karen's mission is to pass on her passion for yoga and to contribute to the mental and physical well-being of her students. She aims to bring happiness to each individual who walks through the doors of Earth Yoga Sanctuary. Karen is currently studying for a Diploma in Yoga Therapy from the Minded Institute in London. This additional qualification allows her to offer dedicated Yoga Therapy sessions for those seeking a more targeted approach to their yoga practise.
While Karen takes her role as a yoga teacher seriously, she also knows how to have fun. She regularly conducts hot yoga, power yoga, and glow flow classes for those who love to push their limits. These classes provide a space for yogis to challenge themselves and explore their practise under Karen's guidance.
In addition to her expertise in Vinyasa and power yoga, Karen also teaches Yin classes. Yin yoga brings about balance in the body, mind, and soul. It serves as a perfect complement to the more active Hatha and Vinyasa styles, and Karen takes great joy in introducing her students to this practise.
Karen has a range of additional qualifications that enhance her teaching ability. She is certified by Sally Parkes to teach Pregnancy Yoga (Pre & Post Natal) and Yin Yoga (Arhanta Yoga Academy). She has also achieved the Mental Health First Aider Level 2 certification from Mental Health First Aid England and is a Reiki (Usui Shiki Ryoho) Master Level practitioner.
