Kareena awakens core energy thru a soothing blend of rhythmic torso isolations and graceful flow-style yoga.

Her yoga classes feature yin based postures combined with breath control. Similar to ashtanga yoga but less stressful, Kareena's yin approach grounds the lower body, opens the heart center and improves body shape. Her techniques include meditation and mudras to increase inner-awareness. Holding advanced certification thru the Yoga Alliance Kareena offers over forty years experience in the safe practice of yoga.

Belly dance with Kareena is fun and energizing to the max. Studied in many dance forms here and abroad Kareena leads participants thru sexy Mid-eastern hip isolations and graceful oriental arm and hand movements. Her style is hypnotic and sensous featuring trance-like Arabic melodies and Egyptian pop routines.
