Wellness Workshops for Chronic & Mental Health

We are happy to recommend Montana for yoga events and wellness retreats. Montana is a soothing and rejuvenating presence and practices in a way that is safe and accessible for everyone. We had the great privilege of having her instruct a yoga session for one of our Resident Wellness Retreats, which proved to be a positive experience for all of the participants and we would be thrilled to have her back again. She has a non-judgmental and holistic approach to her practice that makes the sessions enjoyable and restoring. Thank you Montana!

On behalf of the Crohn’s and Colitis Club of Western, I cannot be more grateful to have connected with Montana. Having the opportunity to hear from her both at our Talking Sh!t educational event as well as her Restorative Yoga for Chronic Health class, truly made my own experiences with IBD feel extremely understood and validated. Her ability to be openly honest and encourage raw conversation about the challenges and the triumphs of living with chronic illness have motivated me in my personal life to prioritize my own mental wellbeing, as well as become more aware of the way I can be better supporting others around me. She is a role model to many, and I am so grateful to have been impacted by her warm and optimistic spirit through her incredible expertise in the world of IBD and chronic illness!

Hello Montana,

I wanted to reach out to thank you… I watched your presentation with Crohn’s and Colitis and WOW, it was exactly what I needed! Your words were so comforting and reassuring. Thank you for being so vulnerable and for sharing your tips and experiences. I really appreciate it! Thank you again for your insight and openness in today’s session. It was much needed for me today and brought a light I didn’t know I needed!

Best,

Embodiment & Wellness Coaching

Montana is a very warm, compassionate wellness coach that truly cares about your wellbeing and provides an affordable and structured format to help you find solutions to any issues negatively impacting your mental and physical health.  I believe that working with Montana over 6 weeks to find solutions and break them down into small achievable goals helped increase my self confidence and belief in myself to find a new group of friends where I live that I can go to for support and feel connected to the community. Thank you, Montana, for your help and support during this difficult time of my life to help me find myself and my new tribe!

I was so impressed with Montana's Embodiment + Wellness Coaching session. This was one of the kindest things I did for myself in a long time. I found so much clarity with Montana's guidance and I feel so much more centred and aware of what I need to focus on. I would highly recommend this session to anyone who is looking for guidance along their wellness journey!

Yoga & Meditation Teaching

Montana’s biweekly yoga classes give our team a necessary moment to reflect and wind down from their busy work days. Her classes are welcoming, encouraging, and accessible to all. Thank you Montana for getting us out of our desks and giving us a moment to stretch, strengthen, and practice mindfulness.

Montana’s message is one of ‘love and light,’ and you feel that greater purpose in every aspect of her approach to yoga. She is a shining, glowing, and beautiful person, and she has the ability of all great yoga teachers: to guide you through a sequence of movements, all of which take you closer to your fully present self. Montana also has a special way of fusing her passion for helping others with her instruction. She embodies the idea that time spent on one’s mat is only where yoga begins, and that the practice of yoga ultimately connects with all aspects of one’s life. I leave her classes not only feeling relaxed and uplifted, but also motivated to take my practice out into the world, and follow her example of working to create a stronger community.

Montana always has a smile on her face! I love how open and friendly she always is; as a beginner on my yoga journey it is a blessing to have an instructor who is so caring, especially when you may feel new to the studio or your practice. Montana takes special care to set the tone and energy in the studio before class so all students can ground themselves. This makes such a HUGE difference for the practice that follows; having a very busy schedule and being able to quickly drop in and leave that all outside is key to how much I am able to enjoy my practice. I love learning and Montana shares her love and knowledge of yoga in every class with all of the “goodies” she’s picked up along the way from other instructors or from her own study.

I love Montana’s classes! They are a perfect balance of calming/grounding, stretching, active portion, and mindfulness. I especially love Montana’s approach that offers multiple suggestions for every pose to emphasize personalization and checking in with your own body. A great connection of mind, body and spirit. 110% recommend! ❤

Montana’s yoga classes are thoughtful, engaging, and truly one-of-a-kind. Her virtual yoga class for myself and 8 friends made my birthday special, fun, and easy to plan. I highly recommended Montana for any of your virtual or in-person yoga needs!

— Astrid Marschall

I was feeling stressed out and isolated and depressed today but I’m now feeling connected and encouraged that things will get better after taking my evening yoga class with Montana.
