What are Somatic Vinyasa Classes Like?
Somatic Vinyasa is a method created by Karen, focused on emotional and energetic release through the body. Each session explores a unique theme, inviting you to deepen your inner exploration and connect with your personal energy (chakras) and collective energy (astrology).
Somatic Vinyasa blends yoga and somatic techniques, creating a dynamic space where the practice goes beyond physical postures and becomes a journey of self-discovery and expression. The body has its own language, and here we learn to listen to it and respond to its wisdom.
Remember to bring something to write with: journaling is an essential part of the experience.
The Somatic Vinyasa Methodology:
Meditation as the starting point of your inner journey.
Guided journaling as a way to approach ourselves with curiosity rather than self-judgment.
Movement as a way to find balance, express and experience joy through the body.
Somatic techniques to support integration and nurture a sense of safety throughout the entire process.
Your Somatic Vinyasa Yoga Teacher
Karen began her path with yoga when she was 16 years old, and it became her way of living and inhabiting herself.
Creativity in movement and the invitation to explore oneself are the two ingredients that are always present in Karen's classes. She is extremely passionate about guiding each student in their own processes, both internal and external as a way to come back home into the body. She explains every asana in a detailed manner and teaches how to take yoga off the mat.
Karen believes that one does not adapt to yoga, but yoga can be adapted for each person and every experience. This is why she tailors her classes specifically for each person's needs at any given moment. What moves you and what you feel? That's the focus of her practice, giving importance not only to the external movement of the body, but of our internal world that wants to express itself. She often adds intuitive movement, writing, asana lab and somatic practices in her classes.
