Hi! My name is Val and I'm so glad you are here. I'm a mother of two and I live with my sweet family in the Bitterroot Mountains of Montana.
I believe that true growth and fulfillment come from taking care of ourselves holistically - physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Through movement, mindfulness, and connecting with nature, we can tap into our inner strength and resilience.
I am passionate about sharing my knowledge and experiences with others, and I am committed to creating a supportive and empowering community where we can all thrive together.
Let's embrace the beauty of life, embrace our vulnerabilities, and embrace our immense potential. Together, we can create a life filled with joy, purpose, and fulfillment. Let's embark on this journey of self-discovery and transformation together, shall we?

My Experience
In 2023 I completed my 300 hour yoga teacher training with Matt Giordano with an emphasis on Chromatic Yoga. My 200 hour yoga teacher certification is through Yoga Motion under the guidance of Nancy Ruby and Martha Piersma. I have taught over 1,000 hours of yoga and am now an E-RYT 200 through Yoga Alliance. In 2017, I completed 85 hours of advanced training in prenatal yoga with Yo Mama, inspired by teachers Kirsten Warner and Katie Wise and I am now a practicing RPYT. In 2021 I completed a Health Coach certification through the American Council on Exercise and am a Certified Coach of Yoga Mindset Coaching through the Sangha Yoga Institute. Most recently, in 2023 I completed my Peak Pilates Level 1 certification out of Bozeman, MT.
I have training in trauma-informed yoga, yin yoga, and yoga nidra, otherwise known as yogic sleep. I continue to take courses and trainings as a way to grow personally and professionally. I hold a BA from the University of Vermont and a M.Ed from the University of Montana in Curriculum and Instruction.
