Karen Copp

Yoga Instructor

Surrey Yoga and Pilates

Before having children, Karen trained as a Certified Accountant and worked a corporate life in London for many years. During her busy (& fun!) ‘Mum of Three Time’, she changed career and retrained as an Early Years Educator in a local Nursery School, where she has worked for over 20 years! Karen was introduced to the wonders and benefits of Yoga by her daughter when she was at University, where she practiced Yoga to complement her studies. Karen then discovered Yoga too, and helped her to focus her own busy mind, and felt so much connection, strength and happiness after her classes, that she felt compelled to find out more to improve and further her practice. So, in 2017 she began her 200 hour Hatha Akhanda Yoga Teaching qualification in London, which included an incredible time in Rishikesh, India.  Karen is also qualified to teach Yin Yoga, Children’s Yoga and Hot Yoga (including Bikram 26+2). Karen currently teaches Hatha and Yin Yoga from home and covers local classes. She also runs a Children’s After School Yoga Club at the Nursery School. Plus, she volunteers for The National Trust. Karen often likes to theme her Hatha and Yin classes, focusing on breath awareness to help calm the mind. Her classes help to build strength, increase flexibility whilst creating joy and happiness during each class and beyond.
