Karina discovered her love for yoga at a very young age while growing up in Mexico City,a 200-Hr TT at Yoga Heaven with Betsy Kase, 500-Hr Ashtanga TT at Pure Yoga, a 200-Hr Ashtanga Intensive TT with Richard Freeman and Mary Taylor, a 100-Hr Mindfulness Meditation TT through Tibet House NY, and numerous seminars and workshops in Philosophy, Buddhism and Meditation with wonderful teachers and mentors like Robert Thurman, Richard Freeman, Sharon Salzberg, Ram Dass and Miles Neale, who have helped her deepen her knowledge of the practice as a holistic way of life and as practical tool to elevate her humanity for the service of others. In her classes she invites students to find a deeper connection with the breath and to always listen to their own bodies; she strives to make them feel seen, welcomed, and respected. Always a student, her motto is “the real yoga begins once we step off the mat and into the real world.”
