Kars Dodds (they/them)

Kars Dodds (they/them) is a non-binary massage therapist, yoga teacher, and rest facilitator based in London, holding RYT-200 and ITEC Level 3 qualifications alongside certification in Neuro-Somatic Yoga. Kars trained professionally as a dancer for twenty years before moving into bodywork, and that background still shapes how they read and respond to the body: an embodied understanding of where tension lives and how it connects to emotion and nervous system state. Kars is trans, queer, and neurodivergent themselves, and built their practice from that lived experience rather than as an outside attempt at inclusion. All of their work is trauma-sensitive and body-neutral. Kars is especially passionate about creating genuinely safe spaces of rest and movement for the queer and trans community, people who are often met with wellness spaces built on good intentions rather than real safety. Their guided practices center the nervous system first, treating rest not as an indulgence but as something many bodies are still relearning how to do.
