Karen has been practising Biodanza since 2005. She trained to teach Biodanza in London and at the Dorset School of Biodanza. She brings a coaching dimension and her own unique style to her Biodanza teaching.

Biodanza is one of her greatest passions. She says in the book "A Coaches Story" published by Bookshaker: "This dance and movement-based process is very powerful for facilitating nurturing, healing and love. In fact, this method is so powerful and effective, I cannot not offer it to the world".

She has also developed a new treatment process which combines coaching and healing therapies. Named Chikara (meaning “powerful” in Japanese), the process has been described as beautiful, powerful and unique by one of the UK’s Reiki Masters.
