About Karen Faunce

Karen is a devoted student of yoga and meditation, having practiced Hatha Yoga for 19 years. She has been a student of John Friend, founder of Anusara Yoga, since 1992. Karen has studied at Yoga for Life in El Paso, Texas; at Moscow Yoga Center in Moscow, Idaho; and at Garden Street School of Anusara Yoga in Coeur D'Alene, Idaho. Karen received her Anusara Yoga teacher training from John Friend and from Karen Sprute-Francovich, and received her Anusara-Inpired teaching status in 2008 at Garden Street Yoga. She is deeply grateful for the graceful masters of yoga, from many traditions, who have crossed her path-- both locally and nationally; as well as to her family, friends and community who support her work. Karen studies regularly with Karen Sprute-Francovich, Paul Muller-Ortega, and John Friend; and is strongly influenced by the work of Christina Sell, Martin Kirk, and Noah Mazé. She is committed to a light-hearted, generous and devotional expression of the Yoga Path and weaves humor, precise alignment and yoga philosophy into all of her classes.

Karen lives in Moscow, Idaho with her husband and family, a menagerie of pets and a benign addiction to word puzzles.
