“Monica planned and executed a wonderful experience that included 3 challenging days of hiking, kayaking on a mountain lake, and twice-a-day yoga. For an active senior East coaster this was a perfect get-away in the Rockies. She also provided excellent meals and excellent upscale housing. I couldn't imagine a better experience.”

“The 2024 Colorado Adventure and Yoga Retreat was an unforgettable experience! Monica’s expertise in the area, combined with her skills as a hiking guide and yoga instructor, made the trip exceptional. We hiked to 13,000-foot peaks, swam in crystal-clear lakes, and unwound in soothing hot springs. The twice-daily yoga sessions, set against breathtaking mountain views, helped prepare my muscles in the morning and relax them after a full day of hiking. I left with a heart full of appreciation, gratitude and peace. Highly recommend!”

“This is my first time doing an outdoor + yoga retreat, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience!! Monica was organized and thoughtful in planning out the daily schedule to make sure everyone was having a great time. We had plenty of fun activities to fill the day yet we did not feel rushed. It was a small group so we got to socialize and connect, and as a bonus the food we had was healthy and delicious! I highly recommend this company for yoga and outdoor retreat!!”

"I had a lovely time with Monica in beautiful mountains of Colorado. She was very encouraging, and stayed with me while I hiked higher than I have ever gone before. The accommodation were very comfortable. The food was excellent. An all around amazing experience. I can't recommend epic horizons and Monica enough!"

"Monica was my yoga teacher on a week-long hiking and yoga retreat in Norway. Her (vinyasa) classes were pretty challenging - which I thoroughly enjoyed - and well-planned. She is energetic, fun and gives clear instructions. Monica also played great music during our classes, even personalizing one tune to a song that meant something special to our group. If you’re looking for an uplifting class, Monica is your woman!"

"Yoga with Monica is not for the faint of heart. Get ready to work, sweat, reflect and ultimately relax. I love how she incorporated music, which made it an experience I never had before in a yoga class. So if you get a chance to work with her, grab it."

"I was lucky enough to have Monica as my yoga instructor at a yoga and hiking retreat in Norway. Her yoga classes were so awesome! I loved breaking a sweat to dance music in her high intensity classes in the morning and relaxing to her calming voice during the evening restorative classes. She also was a great hiking buddy and introduced me to trail running! She has such positive energy. I hope to see her in a yoga studio or a mountain again someday soon!"

"In this crazy world we live in, the most relaxing part of my week is attending Monica's Surrender yin-yoga class. Her soothing voice instantly transports me to a deep state of calm and reflection. And somehow Monica makes me feel better about myself and life with her gentle reminders. Beautiful energy just radiates from Monica's soul and makes me want to be a better person. She is without a doubt my favorite yoga instructor of all time."
