"I spent 18 years in the stressful world of Mortgage Banking, had a good career and nice
income, but it wasn't enough, I wasn't happy. Yoga opened up a whole new world for me and
suddenly success and money were no longer a top priority in my life"
When the opportunity arose for Kari to "retire" from her career in the Mortgage field and
pursue the dream of teaching yoga, she jumped at the chance. With the support of her teacher,
Fran Zabica, the founder of Inner Harmony, she obtained her teaching certification in Ananda
Yoga for Higher Awareness. Kari credits Fran with changing her entire life. Fran has spent
endless hours mentoring and assisting Kari in developing her teaching skills, and for that she is
forever grateful.
When Fran became ill and was unable to teach, Kari stepped in and took over the day to day
running of the studio and teaching the majority of classes. So, it was an easy transition for
the students, when Fran decided to devote her full energies into healing and for Kari to take
over as the new owner of Inner Harmony. Unfortunately, Fran passed over September 30th,
2005. Divine Soul, Dear Friend, she is sorely missed by many. "I honor Fran daily through the
continuation of Inner Harmony. This was her dream."
"When I look back at how different my life was just a short time ago, it amazes me. I'm just so
happy when I teach. Helping my students reach their full potential is my priority now, and I
find that much more fulfilling than money or power ever could be."
It is Kari's honest and down to earth approach to yoga that appeals to many of her students.
She is able to relate to her students, whether they are on the yogic path to spiritual
enlightenment or just in need of healing their bodies and minds from years of excessive stress.
After the devastating loss of her mother, Kari turned to yoga to
heal herself from years of self destructive
habits, to deepen her spirituality and to reclaim her
health and vitality. As she became more involved in
yoga and the breathing techniques which are the
cornerstone, subtle change began to occur. Her
outlook on life and priorities began to shift into a
much more positive direction. Inner peace and
happiness became more of a reality on a daily basis.
