Karuna Leung Wai Man - Yoga Therapist

Karuna was first introduced to yoga during a four-month programme, School of Peace, in India. A week-long yoga course taught by an Indian teacher further deepened her practice. A few years later, a friend recommended the Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Centre in India, where she returned multiple times over the following six years to study and deepen her practice. Through this journey, Karuna came to realise that yoga is a guiding path towards understanding the true nature of life and achieving holistic health for the body, mind, and soul.

Karuna has 12 years of experience as a yoga teacher, leading regular classes, private sessions, and programmes tailored for diverse age groups and needs, including children, SEN children and families, post-cancer patients, individuals recovering from mental illness, pregnant women, elders, and corporate and NGO groups. She has also taught in women's prisons and men's drug rehabilitation centres.

Alongside her yoga practice, Karuna has 6 years of experience in massage therapy, encompassing Thai massage, myofascial massage, and singing bowl massage. She has conducted relaxation and recovery workshops for retired individuals, families, couples, those recovering from mental illness, and corporate and NGO staff, and has hosted yoga retreats and events centred around yoga, mindfulness, healthcare, and self-care.

Karuna 首次接觸瑜伽，是在印度參與一個為期四個月的（School of Peace）課程期間。其後，一位印度導師教授的一週瑜伽課程，令她的練習更臻深入。數年後，一位朋友向她推薦印度的悉瓦南達瑜伽吠檀多中心，在其後六年間，她曾多次重返該中心進修，深化自己的修行。透過這段旅程，Karuna 領悟到瑜伽是一條引領人們理解生命本質，並達致身、心、靈全面健康的道路。

Karuna 擁有12年瑜伽導師經驗，曾帶領恆常課堂、私人課程，以及專為不同年齡層及需要而設的課程，服務對象包括兒童、有特殊教育需要的兒童及其家庭、癌症康復者、精神疾病康復人士、孕婦、長者，以及企業與非政府組織團體。她亦曾於女子監獄及男子戒毒中心任教。

除瑜伽教學外，Karuna 亦擁有6年按摩治療經驗，涵蓋泰式按摩、肌筋膜按摩及頌缽按摩。她曾為退休人士、家庭、夫婦、精神疾病康復人士，以及企業與非政府組織職員主持放鬆及康復工作坊，並曾主辦以瑜伽、靜觀、保健及自我照顧為主題的瑜伽靜修營及活動。
