ABOUT KAREN HALL
I am a movement and mind/body practitioner offering Yoga, Pilates matwork and studio equipment tuition in my hometown of Seaford and in the outstanding natural beauty of the surrounding landscape.
My teaching has evolved through over 40 years of experience in the fields of dance performance, community arts and movement education, and as a certified specialist in Exercise for Low back pain, I have worked for the past 11 years in clinical settings alongside osteopathy and chiropractic to alleviate pain and promote wellbeing.
​
I'm still in love with movement and my greatest pleasure in teaching is seeing my clients build strength, resilience and find ease as they gain knowledge, skills and confidence to take care of and feel at home in their bodies.
My weekly classes aim to make the benefits of Pilates and yoga accessible, fun, challenging and inclusive. I also offer personal tuition that is person-centred and goal-oriented. Outside of the studio I enjoy family, swimming, art, walking and being in nature.
