"Karen is a wonderful instructor. She was kind and patient and at the same time did a great job of keeping the workshop on task. She was very knowledgeable about the subject matter, and used a lot of real life examples to demonstrate each topic. I always felt incredibly respected and safe in her class and I learned a lot. Karen is both very down to earth and professional at the same time. She has been a great support for myself and my husband and we would recommend her workshops without hesitation." – Ori P.
