About Our "Yoga Studio"

Our Way of Health & Life

Our so-called “Yoga Studio” is actually the beautiful, outdoor Labyrinth, located in the middle of the historic grounds of West Martello Tower & Gardens, on Higgs Beach, Key West, Florida.  

Surrounded by nature and colorful tropical plants, flowers and birds, butterflies, and even a friendly Key West chicken or two, you will feel your pulse slowing down when you participate in one of our outdoor yoga sessions. With a view of the Atlantic ocean, you will feel a refreshing breeze, and your tensions will drift away.

WHAT THEY SAY

“What a wonderful practice to sit in stillness surrounded by nature flowing around you. I breathed in calm. strength, and magic, and exhaled tension, anxiety, and negative thoughts. Kari has a beautiful spirit and is welcoming with no judgement! I highly recommend this class!”

"This class has become one of my favorite things to do in KW! It's a great yoga class in a beautiful setting in the middle of the West Martello botanical garden overlooking Higgs Beach. Kari starts each class with breathing and meditation/relaxation, then moves into downward dogs, warriors and other positions (standing, sitting, prone, etc.), then circles back at the end to breathing and meditation. The class works for beginners and more advanced practitioners, and Kari is a wonderful instructor no matter what level you're at, emphasizing doing only what feels right for your own body. Highly recommend this class whenever you're visiting KW or live here."
