Karen Halldórsdóttir
Founder of Dóttir HotYoga & Lead Trainer in the 200h Yoga Teacher Training
During this training, Karen is teaching the Hatha and Vinyasa parts of the course as well as the business aspect of being a yoga teacher and yoga studio owner.
Karen is Yoga Alliance certified in 200h Hatha, Vinyasa and Yin, 50h DSYFY by Betu Lisboa and currently finishing a 300h advance teacher training.
“There were multiple things that led me on the path of yoga but the main one was dealing with anxiety. Through breath and meditation I learned how to take control over it. I thrive to see other yoga practitioners showing up on their mats and dedicating their time for self practice.
I created Dóttir as a space for others, to arrive, connect and explore what is within. Where you can tap into your own unique rhythm. A space of community so you can find the energy you need.”

What our graduates are saying
"I found exactly that place of loving energy at Dóttir Hot Yoga that I was looking for and just fell in love with that studio. 💜
The yoga teacher training was one of the best decisions in my whole life. Surrounded by super sweet and kind people I could deepen my knowledge about yoga, learn about asanas and meditation, not to forget the anatomy classes which were just great!
But the most important part is that this teacher training gave me the opportunity to learn a lot about myself and my practise.
The YTT is not only a great way to dive into yoga philosophy and practise but also an opportunity to dive into your inner self."
— Isabelle
"The 12 weeks went by very quickly and every class was such an incredible experience- full of knowledge, practice, fun and laughter.
The approach to us was always very warm and kind, despite of our various needs and focuses, they accommodated all of our requests.
Doing the YTT has been the best decision I made and the only downfall is that it passes so quickly.
I miss our weekly classes, however, I am prepared to pursue my dreams now. Thank you Dottir, thank you all the incredible teachers. 😍
It’s been an amazing journey!"
— Hanna
“During the YTT, I immersed myself in yoga for three months and met wonderful people on the way.
I loved our weekends together and our individual classes everyday. 🌟
My favourite parts were learning about the wonders of pranayama and to learn how to connect more deeply with my breath and life energy. I loved doing meditation exercises and learning about the chakras. And I loved how good yoga made me feel every day! 🌟
The YTT taught me how much it matters to keep yoga as part of my daily life and I plan on keeping it that way until this life comes to an end. 🌱”
— Vera
