Who’s Behind Phyzz?


Over the last decade and a half, Karen has worked as a geologist, high school math teacher, dot-com startup geek, IT nerd, and marketing project manager. In 2008 she realized that teaching yoga required her full and undivided attention.

Based in Seattle, she teaches yoga in the home, at the workplace, and around the world. She has been teaching yoga since 2003, and practicing since 1998. She plans retreats to Northwest destinations, to Mexico, and India. Oh yeah, and she’s older than she looks.

On Inspiration: Excerpt from AUM 1936 (from the Signs of Agni Yoga series)

I’ve had this book for many years now, and continue to be mystified by it. I picked it up on a whim at a local new age bookstore.It is filled with 600 numbered musings on various metaphysical topics, and I like to keep it lying about and crack it open occasionally and read a random [...]
