Meet Kara our yoga teacher 4pm Sundays. We are so lucky to have her

Kara completed her first 500 hour Yoga Teacher Training in Los Angeles, California in 2011. This intense transformative experience set the foundation for her career. She began teaching immediately and gained meaningful and valuable teaching experiences in Boston, Cambridge, and throughout Southern New Hampshire. In 2020 Kara furthered her education and earned her 200 hour Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) Certification through Yoga Alliance.

Prior to her teaching, Kara earned her Bachelor of Science in Family Studies from the University of New Hampshire with a Minor in Dance and Education.

Kara is honored to partner with the Aaron Tolson Institute of Dance and bring yoga to the St. Anselm's community. She leads class with purpose, creating challenging yet accessible experiences for all levels. She truly believes yoga is for everybody, as the intentional practice of yoga carries over from the mat into everyday life.
