Karla received her 200-Hour Certification from Satya Yoga in Erie, PA in June 2013 and recently completed RAGE Yoga training in Spring 2024. She is currently working on her 300-hour training to become an E-RYT 500.

Karla has taught in many settings over the last decade including various mental health and drug & alcohol recovery organizations, in after school and summer camp settings for youth, as well as several fitness centers and studios.

Her guiding philosophy is that yoga is for everyBODY and she promotes an inclusive approach to coming to the mat. You do not have to be a skilled yogi to attend! Props to fine tune postures for optimal alignment and relaxation, a lot of humor (life is too serious already!), and fun/funky playlists are all a part of her classes.
