Guided Hike:
MST Isaac’s Trailhead to Carter Falls (5miles)

This trail meanders through private property with cow pastures and fields making it’s way to the woods and a pine tree forest section and crossing a few country roads along the way before ending at the Carter Falls parking lot.

Adding on the Carter Falls loop (worth it) adds an additional .9miles. This would be the steepest section but it’s short.

There is also other sections of trail to add on if we, as a group, choose too.

You can choose to carry additional weight or not...be smart about it. please

self-investment: $15

what to bring:
• WATER
• snacks
• layers / rain coat (depending on weather forecast)
• water shoes and a small towel if you want to get in the creek (also worth it)
• hiking poles (I have a couple extra if needed)
• a good attitude

Carpool if you can!!

Rucking is for everyBODY.

Beginners welcome.

Humans were made to carry heavy things.
Rucking = walking with weight.

Rucking is a great way to get outside, move your body, strengthen longevity through endurance and gaining muscle all while building community and new connections.

Rucking is the no. 1 way to simultaneously burn fat AND build muscle. It is also less likely to cause injury than running, lifting weights, etc.

Next Pop-up

Sunday, April 19th at 9:45am

Details:
• We will meet in the main parking lot for the Muddy Creek Greenway on Meadowlark Rd. - Jamison Park
• We will hit the greenway at 10am.
• Distance – 1-3 miles based on your experience. We will discuss that in the parking lot.
• Wear shoes you are comfortable in
• Bring water (in a bottle or a bladder in the backpack)

Start with just 10% of your body weight in a backpack or use a weighted vest. The weight can be from books, rocks, dumbbells, cans of food or a puppy. I vote for puppies 🙂

I have extra backpacks if needed.

What brings you to your mat?

What stops you from coming back day after day?

What keeps you from starting?

Where ever you’re at in your journey know that yoga happens on AND off the mat.

Yoga is not stretching

Yoga is breath

Yoga is not a perfect pose

Yoga is dynamic movement

Yoga is not an athletic endeavor

Yoga is a tool

Yoga is not perfection

Yoga is a space for learning

Yoga is not the end goal

Yoga is tuning in to one’s Self

What is yoga to you??

12/03/2025

Set your intentions for 2026 using the breath as your guide and the community as your anchor.

Spending time in nature has a profound impact on one’s health and mental wellbeing.

Not sure how to connect to nature?
Not comfortable hiking alone?
Unsure where to even begin?

Join me on this guided off trail hike.

Learns how to navigate unfamiliar terrain in a controlled and guided setting.

This hike is about 3 miles and not too challenging. It begins with a gradual incline up to the ridge line. Pace is slower due to the rocky and leave covered ground. There is a cave we can explore if you choose.

35minute drive from Winston Salem.
Exact location given with registration. $15

DM me or Venmo (link in bio)

DETAILS:

This time of you year the weather can vary quite a bit from 10am to 1pm and it can get quite windy on the ridge line. There is a section of navigating briars so puffy coats might not be the best choice (they rip easily).

• wear hiking boots
•abrasion resistant pants (tights are not a great option nor are they very warm)
•dress in layers
•wind protection
•hat & gloves
•water
•snacks (one will be provided)
•hiking pole (I have a coupe extras)
•headlamp (for the cave)
•a backpack or waist pack are your best options (I have a couple extras if needed).

*NO dogs – terrain is rocky and too high a risk for injury
