YOGA CLASSES:

Each yoga class will be customized for active recovery. Classes will be taught for all levels. Keri will provide modifications for beginning yogis and also opportunities for advanced practitioners to grow their practice.

GROUP RUNS/HIKES:

We believe that running is a transformative act for everyone who chooses to participate. While we welcome runners of all ages and abilities, we do require that you have some experience running/power hiking with elevation. The terrain will challenge you and test your limits.

For group runs we divide into pace groups as well as partner up to make sure that no one runs/hikes alone. Group runs/hikes are anywhere from 6-8 miles on dirt and rocky terrain. Expect lots of rocks and elevation. We will walk/hike the inclines and run/jog the flats.
