A nomadic yoga teacher and ayurvedic health coach, with a passion for sharing practices that bring you closer to joy & your natural state of being.
Kareena’s classes are an invitation to enjoy true presence with yourself and notice what you find.
Be it peace, clarity, renewal or release, whatever it is you discover on the mat - Kareena guides you to create your own experience and ultimately develop a yoga practice that aligns mind, body & soul.
Introduced to yoga from a young age, the philosophy and practices of yoga were infused into her childhood. Coming from a mixed-heritage family (half Gujarati, half portuguese-Irish-English) with Indian roots, she grew up learning the elements of mantra, meditation, visualisation and the power of affirmation for everyday life. Naturally influencing her outlook on life these embodied practices would later offer solace and guidance as she navigated through grief from the loss of her Mother and tread a path for healing.
Long before her first yoga class or even identifying these transformative practices as ‘yoga’, she established a relationship with herself and an awareness of mind-body connection that would pave the way for her explorations in Yoga and Ayurveda. Seeking to learn and deepen her self practice initially, rediscovering the spiritual aspects of yoga, felt like a homecoming. After qualifying in 2021 at Space Yoga Studio, with Catia Leite, Kareena returned to her roots and has been teaching ever since.
Practices with Kareena will be calming, grounding and creative, inspiring you to connect within. You will experience the full range of yogic practices beyond the physical (Asana) and discover tools that will support you both on and off the mat.
