Kaoutar discovered yoga in her early twenties and fell in love with the practice since.  Yoga helped Kaoutar cope with the stress and anxiety that resulted in significant hair loss.  Yoga allowed Kaoutar to become more aware and present. After dealing with a knee injury Kaoutar's perspective on yoga changed because she realized that yoga is beyond the asana practice.  

In her class, expect a catchy fun soundtrack accompanied by empowering messages throughout your practice.  Kaoutar encourages the use of props and modified poses to meet your needs.  She will always remind you of safety and listening to your body. At the end of the day, she says, yoga is not meant to hurt you but instead to soothe you!  

Kaoutar completed her 200 hrs Yoga Teacher Training in 2016 at the Yoga Garden. She has supplemented her teacher training with 88 hrs of Vinyasa Yoga Immersion with the accomplished Yogi Brittany Policastro. Kaoutar pursued her Yoga Child Training thru Yoga Child with the famous award winning Anh’s Anger Children’s book author/Yogi Gail Silver.  Kaoutar has also completed the Mindfulness Through Movement Teens Training at Verge Yoga Studio.

She enjoys introducing yoga to children and teens.  Kaoutar is always zealous to deepen her yoga practice thru new trainings and workshops. She is passionate about traveling, Harry Potter books/movies, decaf tea, self-help books, and the sunset. Kaoutar is currently a French/ESL High School instructor who practices Yoga and mindfulness with her students on a daily basis.
