करुणा ~ karuna ~ compassion & healing
Hi, I'm Nina, the founder of Karuna Wellness.
An affinity with the human body and a natural tendency to gravitate towards health was what lead me to yoga and my first class over 20 years ago. I began the journey of self-discovery into my own body and the changes I felt emotionally and physically after practicing yoga were what inspired me to train as a yoga teacher.
With a growing fascination for the human body I trained in Holistic massage and more recently in lomilomi massage, my love for both yoga and massage reflect in my teaching and my treatments.
I qualified as a yoga instructor at Frog Lotus Yoga in Spain in 2012 and have been teaching passionately ever since.
Yoga is my tool for a healthy body and mind. My classes are fun and active, designed to move and breathe in unison with focus and awareness, leaving you feeling re-energised and grounded.
I completed my Breathwork Instructor training with Michaēl Bijker and am certified in teaching various Pranayama and Breathwork techniques.
Each form of breathwork has its own unique approach, but they all share the common goal of using the breath to promote physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
It is my goal to share these wonderful techniques with you.
I completed my diploma in Holistic massage at the Richdales Institute London. My massage treatments are designed to embody your emotional and physical wellbeing.
In November 2024 I completed my training in lomilomi massage.
'Lomi' meaning 'to rub, knead and massage', works to soften tissue and spread muscle fibres and is highly beneficial to the muscular, circulatory, lymphatic, immune and digestive systems.
Working with your 'Mana', the universal energy, lomilomi nurtures and deeply relaxes to help clear mental and emotional stress.
A treatment can be transformational and revilitizing bringing the mind, body and spirit into alignment.
