Karen is a true warrior, a very dedicated and resilient karate student with great sparring skill. She has started her training in 1990 and apart from her Shodan in Shuhari, she also holds a brown belt in Shotokan and a Nidan in Gojukai. Being a mother of 5 she is great with kids as an instructor. Her motivational, encouraging, and nurturing personality as a teacher is the reason why she teaches the most well-attended class in our club. She teaches high-paced, energetic classes for all levels of students, and she also bakes lovely cupcakes for her students. Karen's daughter Louise is also a black belt member of the Shuhari family.
