Do you have big plans for 2022? Are you a runner, hiker, or yogi looking to step up your game?
Maybe you’re training to trek through France, Italy Switzerland by foot, or you want to summit Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest peak. Or maybe you just want a way to get in shape without having to step foot in a gym.
Yoga For Hikers is for yogis, hikers, and runners of all abilities. We take the challenges on the trail and break them down into actionable exercises that will improve your strength, mobility, and mindfulness on and off the trail.
As a bonus, this course also includes backpacking basics like how to treat water, how to start a fire, how to pack a pack, how to navigate, use trekking poles and more.
Completing this course is a prerequisite for going on any FIT Trek, but it’s also a great way to prepare if you are trying to tackle something solo.
After teaching a sold out class live here in Asheville, North Carolina, I’ve decided to launch the course online, starting January 1st. Just in time to kick off your 2022 goals.
Pre-register now for a limited time offer of $99 for an action-packed 8 weeks (regularly $199). This offer is good until Monday, so act fast.

Feeling incredibly grateful to have such a dream team in the inaugural yoga for Hikers class— 3 folks who are AT thru-hikers, several who are active in trail maintenance, one who is doing 100 waterfalls in 100 days, Pisgah’s top Ranger, a Patagonian expat, world travelers, etc. Humbled and inspired to keep this up.
For anyone who wanted to join but couldn’t, fret not— the online course will be up by Thanksgiving, just in time for when it’s challenging to get outside.
Happy Trails👣
Are you training for a big trek? Or are you just getting into hiking? Or just want to get more into your body while connecting with nature?
Starting this Wednesday 5:30-6:30pm at the Asheville Botanical Gardens, I’ll be doing a live a series for hikers and yogis of all skill levels.
If you’re interested but can’t make it, drop me a message— I’m launching the course virtually soon!
The details:
Starting from the feet and working our way up the kinetic chain, over the course of 8 weeks we will develop a functional practice that will improve strength, mobility, and mindfulness on and off the trail. It is my intention for you to complete the program with a deeper connection between your body, your mind, and your natural environment.
In English: I want you to HYOH / (“hike your own hike”), but with less blisters and busted knees.
