Hi My name is Karen and I am the Owner of Yoga Wakefield Yoga Studio
I am a Yoga Teacher and love to bring Yoga into peoples lives, whether that is at my Yoga Studio in Alverthorpe, Wakefield or whether you’d like me to visit your place of work and bring Yoga to your doorstep.
My background:
I have had a lifelong passion for all things fitness, with activities ranging from track and field competitive events, 25 years of practice on Pilates Reformer and mat work and 15 years practising Yoga.
I qualified as a Yoga Teacher in November 2021 with Yoga Hero in Leeds, and can honestly say it was one of the best experiences of my life, Ive since gone on to do three more courses with Yoga hero and qualified in them all.
My Yoga Alliance Qualifications with Yoga Hero are:
200 hr Yoga Teacher Training Vinyasa Flow
50 hr Chair/Accessible Yoga
50 hr Restorative Yoga, Nidra, Mindfulness
50 hr Traditional Hatha, Meditation, Pranayama
What does a class entail ?
At the start of all Yoga Wakefield classes we prepare the body with a mixture of breath-work and exercises to help free up the busy mind, we will explore meditation and i’ll give you the necessary starting blocks to help focus your mind through my guided meditation.
We always move the body through breathwork, adapting to your needs, there will be adjustments that help assist your specific needs such as working around injuries or limitations.
We can work on the floor with a Yoga mat or if preferred use a Chair for the very common and popular Office based Yoga.
My Yoga methods are suitable for ALL and I encourage you to try it at least once in your life ( you don’t know what you are missing ). Social media can sometimes depict a different image to people, but it truly is for all ages, sizes and all genders.
Some strength and conditioning elements are added to the Yoga Wakefield classes with a few choice and subtle Pilates elements creeping in, I feel strength in the central core is essential for Yoga and Pilates to maintain good alignment and posture.
I love to inspire my yogis and love watching them grow stronger in mind and body every week.
