Julie Heinrich
Yoga Instructor
Yoga has come naturally to Julie. Living with arthritis from a young age, she learnt that gentle stretching and building strength around her joints was a great way to stay active and live to the fullest. It’s a practice she’s relied on for decades. As an outdoor enthusiast, Julie believes adventure is best when your body feels strong, and flexible. In the late 2010s, she became a certified yoga instructor, formalizing the classes she had already been leading for years.
Helping people move healthfully is the heart of Julie’s teaching. Whether she’s working with staff, skiers, or complete beginners, Julie creates a welcoming, lighthearted atmosphere where no one feels intimidated. Her classes are beginner-friendly, low-impact, and focused on stretching, gentle strengthening. Each session finishes with a touch of meditation, leaving students feeling more supple, restored, relaxed, and ready for whatever comes next.
Danika Stone
Artist & Guide
Many years ago I decided I would do EVERYTHING that gave me joy. I write. I paint. I guide. I teach. And if I’m not doing that, I’m out on the trail. Despite a number of tragedies, I consider myself extremely lucky. Yes, I feel grief (immensely), but I’m wired happy. I find joy most easily when I’m alone in nature, in creative flow, or visiting with people who fill my cup. I live in the hobbit life in the Canadian Rockies, in a cabin that’s been in My family for five generations. If you see me on the trail, say hello!
