Key to Life Health and Fitness • April 3, 2025

Welcome to the Key to Life family, Karen Harris!

We are thrilled to have Karen join our team as a yoga teacher, bringing her passion, inclusivity, and unique teaching approach to our studio in Lower Plenty. Karen's journey through yoga has been nothing short of inspiring, and her warm teaching style promises to provide transformative experiences for our members.


Karen’s classes at Key to Life are designed for all levels, whether you're an experienced yogi or just starting your yoga journey. With her slow-flow sessions that connect breath to movement, you'll enjoy a mix of standing, balancing, and floor postures, as well as opportunities for breathwork and meditation. Karen’s inclusive and relaxed approach ensures that every participant is in control of their practice, maximizing personal growth and overall wellbeing.


Why Regular Yoga Classes Matter


Yoga offers incredible benefits for both body and mind. Scientifically supported advantages include improved flexibility, strength, and posture (Harvard Health Publishing, harvard.edu), as well as reduced stress levels and enhanced mental clarity.


Karen’s classes focus on creating a supportive environment where these benefits can flourish, making each session not just a workout, but a holistic wellness experience.


For the residents of Eltham, Lower Plenty, and surrounding areas, attending Karen’s yoga classes can be life-changing. Classes are held in a private studio setting with a maximum of eight participants, allowing personalized attention to ensure you gain the most out of each practice.


Join Us in Welcoming Karen Harris


As part of Key to Life's comprehensive offerings, Karen’s yoga classes complement our existing health and fitness services, including Pilates, group fitness classes, personal training, and more. With a commitment to enriching the lives of our members, we provide a space where you can enhance your physical health, mental wellbeing, and community connections.


If you're ready to embrace yoga with Karen, we invite you to visit our studio in Lower Plenty and experience the transformative power of her sessions. Together, we’ll create a journey of growth and wellness that caters to your unique goals. Welcome to the Key to Life family, Karen!
