Karen Johnstone

I am a homegrown Manipura Yogi, having started my serious practice here in 2016, and having done my certification here in 2023. I enjoy the use of Sanskrit during class as I am a linguist, fluent in Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese. In my class I leave space for the practitioners to explore the deepest parts of their minds, letting go of old emotions and making space for new positive feelings in an alpha mind state. However, I can be spontaneous, often creating fun and uplifting classes making each experience a unique journey. Previous pursuits of mine include studying Karate for 5 years at a Shaolin Temple accredited studio, indoor/outdoor rock climbing, Zen and Tibetan meditation, dancing salsa and of course singing, playing and recording music. My favorite topics include astrology, natal astro chart reading, the Hero’s journey, feng shui, Taoism, Zen meditation, Korean, aquarium and tropical plant care, trees, the Gospel, crystals, essential oils, and the secret mysteries and all things metaphysical.
