Kara Billingham

Native to Long Island, Kara is a certified Kripalu Yoga Instructor; trained by Devarshi Steven Hartman and Megha Nancy Buttenheim at Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health in Lenox, Massachusetts.
Kara has practiced yoga since 2001 and has been teaching since 2006. Her passion for yoga goes hand in hand with her love for working with individuals with special needs. Previously the Director of the Southampton Fresh Air Home, a local camp for physically challenged children, she continues to volunteer her time teaching yoga to the staff and campers there each summer. In 2008, Kara also opened up a center for young people with special needs in Savannah, GA, named Lindsey's Place, where she devotes much of her time when not teaching yoga and being mother to 3 young children.

She feels the most influential people along her path have been the students who attend her classes. Kara is particularly proud of the sense of community her classes bring, inspiring all to honor themselves and those around them….not only on the yoga mat, but in life. Her passion is to bring yoga to as many people as she can and to spread a message that we are all in some way connected.
