Karen Yang
Even as a young girl, Karen was always sporty, so becoming a “gym rat” as an adult was no surprise. Her love for all sporty activities included kickboxing, CrossFit, Olympic style lifting, bootcamp, circuit training, Zumba to name a few. She had tried yoga a few times but thought it was too boring so never really stuck with it…until years later when she tried yoga again and something clicked as she met a yoga instructor that really spoke to her heart. That was 12 years ago and she hasn’t stopped practicing yoga since!
After having her second child at almost 40 yrs old, Karen struggled with a massive weight gain, longer recovery from c section and postpartum depression. She turned to yoga to slowly recover and soon embarked on her Yoga Teacher Training (YTT) journey. She is a RYT 200 certified yoga instructor and also a Barre instructor. She strives to motivate and inspire others in all walks of life to become a better version of themselves, inside and out!
Karen lives in Fall City with her husband and 2 beautiful girls - a teenager and a toddler (prayers appreciated). She’s an active dedicated member of Church on the Ridge with a heart on fire for God. In her down time, she likes to vacation in Cancun, where her parents live, beach bumming and eating delicious Mexican food.
