About Karen

Karen is a Fringe First award winning actor/writer/director who graduated from Manchester University in 1985 with a degree in Drama and Art. She went on to work as a Stage Manager on the Diploma in Acting course at Manchester Metropolitan University and then as Head of Drama and Theatre Studies at Chetham’s School of Music.

In 2007 Karen started practicing Iyengar Yoga and qualified as a teacher in 2016 after undertaking 2 years of rigorous teacher training.

She continues to develop her teaching skills by regularly attending workshops with senior Iyengar yoga teachers from around the world and loves the fact that there is always something new to learn and discover.

Karen feels privileged to have the opportunity to introduce others to the experience of Iyengar yoga and believes that it is the attention to the details that help to develop the strength and flexibility needed to experience the wonderful feeling of the mind, body and spirit being supported and nourished.

The Iyengar mark can only be used by a certified teacher. It is a symbol of clarity, maturity and excellence in teaching.
