YOGA INSTRUCTOR: KAREN CONLEY

Karen has always been inspired to help people reach their full potential and face their challenges with courage and integrity. After graduating from Fordham University, she began her teaching career in the public school systems where she later went on to work with high-risk teenagers putting them through challenging situations in the rugged outdoors of Canada where they were able to reach their highest potential.


Karen infuses her joyful, high-energy classes with her belief that we can best serve others and heal ourselves through this dynamic and transforming yoga practice. Karen is a highly experienced teacher and and has led workshops and teacher training's for over 15 years around the world. 


She has devoted her life to assisting her students along their yoga journey. “Yoga for me is a practice that insists that I continue to take a closer look at how I can create change and balance in my life. I use that as a platform to inspire others to really invest in their own lives and to get passionate about themselves and all they have to offer.”

I really enjoyed this Level 1 Reiki training! It was a fun and engaging opportunity to learn more about the history and practice of Reiki. Karen does a beautiful job a leading the group discussion and creating a safe, inviting and fun atmosphere for all participating! We did actually get a lot of hands on expereince and demonstrations working with the other students in the class. I left with a lot more knowledge and expereince than I thought possible in a one-day training! And, if I am feeling inspired to keep studying on my own time, we also went home with a thick spiral-bound training manual to study on our own, included as part of the training. Karen has a great energy and love for Reiki and she made this training fun and insteresting!

Karen’s reiki training was truly an amazing experience. She was unbelievably warm, knowledgeable, kind and ensured participants got the most out of the training. I highly recommend this training for one who is looking to expand their knowledge of reiki and begin practicing.

Blue Spirit is located in the jungle of Costa Rica - located walking distance below is the Pacific Ocean. The combination of the natural world, yoga practices 2x a day, and organic hyperlocal food creates an atmosphere for deep connection with your personal self. Thank you Karen for bringing a group of gals together in such a special space. A trip to remember!🤍

The Goddess Retreat at Blue Spirit can only be described as magical. The resort itself is perched on an amazing piece of hillside overlooking the beautiful beaches of the Pacific Ocean. We practiced yoga 2x a day, took a group dance class, attended a new moon circle, and ate amazing & healthy meals together. There were optional excursions and spa treatments throughout the week. I tried surfing for the first time and had one of the best deep-tissue massages of my life. This was my 3rd goddess retreat in the last 5 years and I always leave feeling inspired and energized. I will definitely be back next year. Thanks to our host & teacher, Karen, for an amazing week <3

Goddess retreat at Blue Spirit, Costa Rica was pure magic. Fresh, locally grown food at every meal. Inclusive, accessible yoga classes twice a day that were revitalizing and challenging, but not demanding. I gained 25 new friends for life! We ate, drank, surfed, shared, and I will definitely be back next year. ❤️
