Introduction: Imagine laughing, learning, and loving yoga like you never have before. I can help you learn the basics of yoga or help you expand your current practice - working hard but not taking ourselves too seriously. You will be challenged both mentally and physically, and in the end, you will feel proud of yourself, rejuvenated to hit the world head on, and wanting to make positive changes in your life. I am 200-hour RYT certified through the fabulous YEAH Yoga teacher training program. I specialize in core strength Vinyasa yoga (but have a background in numerous types of yoga) and I'm a Level 2 Reiki energy healer. So far, I've lived close to 40 years of many good times (but hardships as well) and am also a successful corporate vice president in the world of banking/finance; what this means is I can help you work through all kinds of 'stuff'...good and bad. It doesn't matter what type of body you have (size, strength, male, female, athlete, never exercised in your life, etc), I can work with you. - Looking forward to hearing from you, Kari Parker Helping people is what keeps me motivated. I especially love teaching people who are brand new to yoga. I love seeing how people can triumph after the failures. I will make you smile and laugh and appreciate all aspects of what yoga and Reiki can do for your entire life. It's a magical voodoo that I do that works for all people. ~Find Your Inner Buddhi~

I'm so grateful to have found Kari. I've been working with a hip injury and following some major abdominal surgeries was also having trouble finding strength in my core, back, and pelvis. After working with two physical therapists without much change, I began seeing Kari for private yoga instruction every week. I was hard on myself at first, but Kari met me where I was and she leaves me feeling empowered after every session. Her attention to detail is tremendous. She offers beautifully supported hands on adjustments that help me expand farther in my yoga than I thought possible (as a yoga instructor myself it's been enlightening). She gives safe and aligned modifications on the fly when I have trouble moving into a pose or start to feel tension. Her Reiki energy work lets me thoroughly relax into the moment when I'm a ball of stress. Her tool belt seems endless! She is creative, compassionate, and present as a human and instructor. You can't help but feel good around her; she vibrates higher. She speaks to spirit and also has a deep knowledge and love for anatomy to assist all levels and body types. Thank you, Kari, for sharing your unique gifts. I feel stronger, braver, and more comfortable in my own body, mind, and spirit because of you.

I have taken private yoga sessions with Kari. She is very knowledgeable and was thorough with her teachings. She took the time to work with me to tailor the class to my needs and skill level and was willing to answer any and all questions I had. I highly recommend her to anyone, no matter their yoga skill level, and look forward to taking another class with her.

Kari is a true professional dedicated to Yoga! It's been a few years since my Yoga days and Kari took the time and effort to ensure I was comfortable, offering various restorative poses to suit my abilities. I felt she was genuinely attentive and in tune to my needs and provided exceptional instruction. It's apparent to me that Yoga "found" Kari and I'm happy that she's able transform her knowledge in powerful ways to help others. Thank you for your openness and sharing. Highly recommend!!
