Kara Obana is a dedicated Ashtanga Yoga practitioner. She first tried yoga 19 years ago, eventually finding what she was looking for in the Ashtanga Mysore practice.

Kara completed a one-year apprenticeship in Ashtanga Yoga with Cathy Louise Broda in 2008 and now teaches our Wednesday morning Mysore class.

A doctor in pharmacy, Kara first studied yoga in San Francisco and has experience in a range of styles, including Bikram, Vinyasa and Power yoga. In addition to her training with Cathy Louise, Kara has attended workshops with Sri K Pattabhi Jois and his grandson R Sharath Jois.
