Happy New Year! Isn't it crazy its 2023, again wow 2023! I don't even know where to begin. Wait... maybe I do lol.

Since I talked to you last , I have been awarded "Best of the Region for Yoga Instructor"! Right , its unbelievable ,

I am feeling very humbled, to say the least , to even put a label on something like this "best of the region". I do what I do because exercise helps me maintain my own health issues with arthritis, I also do what I do because I love helping people find their own path in fitness. To me its not a job, its a life style. I know that may sound like a cliché , but really its not. I want to thank each and everyone of you for voting for me , you made this a crazy ride for me to end the year 2022 . Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Moving into 2023- again I am feeling overwhelmed and humbled. I have been on my own instructing by myself for 1 year now. Lima Yoga Girl is not really where I want her to be yet, but I feel like I am still getting my feet wet and learning what works and what doesn't work. Here is a BIG THANKYOU to Jesse and Stacy Austin at Lima's Total Revolution for supporting my vision and allowing me to continue doing what I love. Also a BIG THANK YOU to my 3 Amigos.. Kory, Donna, and Dana, without you supporting me all year I probably would of gave up. You are my ROCKSTARS. And another BIG THANK YOU to my Wednesday night YOGIS- you ladies are amazing, thank you for sticking with me through everything and thank you for all the therapy sessions. #truefriendsaretherealtherapists

Now where do we go next? Since 2022 was stressful and crazy I feel its time to cut loose this year. Lets ride the wave and see where it takes us. I would like to focus on Strength this year, not only being strong outside , but being strong inside as well. What's the saying ? “One of the greatest discoveries a man makes, one of his great surprises, is to find he can do what he was afraid he couldn’t do.” —Henry Ford

So this year I plan to challenge myself more and step outside my comfort box. I am wanting to bring you more of the things that brought me to my happy place in fitness. Setting the intention for 2023 to bring more classes, more workshops. More everything.

Yours truly Kara
