Hello, I'm Kara! :)
I'm here to empower you to nourish your mental health and cultivate self-love & compassion.
A little bit about me: I'm a yoga teacher, traveler, author, mental health advocate, and inspirational leader. I am obsessed with my tiny 5 pound cat Duchess, in love with all things Alaska, hiking, and exploring the natural beauty of this enchanting place.
I am happiest when I am immersed in Mother Earth & creating global connections. I love my seaside home Seward.

"I’ve practiced with Kara for the last three years.
She’s an amazing teacher. Slow and gentle when I need, but also encouraging and pushes me when she knows I can do more.
I had never heard of yoga nidra before. She led me through and opened my eyes to a wonderful practice.
Her zoom classes have made it possible to continuing practice through distance and corona virus.
She’s a gentle spirit and is truly living the life she believes in. Following her passion.
Her workshops are informative and inspirational.
I’m so thankful she came into my life."

"Kara's yoga classes are fantastic and I recommend them to my friends and family. Kara was born to be a yoga instructor, her teaching seems to flow from the root of her personality.
She is particularly good at showing how yoga and meditation are tools to help process past trauma.
Her openness about her own experiences with trauma, mental health, and depression helped me to better understand and process my own personal experiences.
As far as I can tell, it's not about the yoga. It's about using yoga to untangle those things we all struggle with as human beings."

"I had the opportunity to take one of Kara's virtual classes, and it was a wonderful experience. She is kind, gentle, and encouraging. She is also real and raw and vulnerable. Her instructions are clear and easy to follow. I highly recommend working with her on your yoga journey, whether you are advanced or a beginner. Can't wait to practice with her more. Thank you, Kara! ❤"
