MONICA AND SARAH

Meet your hosts, Monica and Sarah. They met while teaching with Sweatnet around the Pittsburgh area and are both RYT 200-hour certified yoga instructors. They are dedicated to the lifelong practice of yoga and mindfulness and are passionate about connecting like-minded women and building community. After all, self-care is even more fulfilling when shared with friends, right!

Monica is known for her vibrant, energizing flow classes and emphasis on meaningful connections creating an experience that fosters community and joy. She uses silent headphones with immersive audio to create an intimate, distraction-free yoga experience that lets you melt into the music. Sarah focuses on slowing things down through intentional movement and breathwork cultivating harmony between breath and body. Together, they deeply believe in the importance of making self-care accessible, enjoyable, and communal.

They are so excited to share this experience with you and hope you leave feeling deeply rooted, ready to take on whatever is next in your journey.

Wellness with Nature

Resting on 150 acres, River Mountain is bordered by Sweet Root Creek, Warrior Ridge and Tussey Mountain. River Mountain's stunning spaces are designed for reflection, mindfulness, and good vibrations on your self-care journey. Creekside yoga platforms, a restored barn turned wellness space, and the calm of nature make this the ideal destination for peace and wellness.

Located just a few hours from D.C., Baltimore, and Pittsburgh, in the mountains of Pennsylvania, River Mountain is remote yet easy to access.

History

Warrior Path

Running parallel to River Mountain's eastern ridge is Warriors Path, the great Iroquois Indian highway from Six Nations country, New York, to the Catawba country in the Carolinas. The historic path along Sweet Root Creek was one of the longest and most heavily traveled land routes in eastern North America, connecting Indigenous peoples over hundreds of miles.

The Underground Railroad

Black Valley was an active route along the Underground Railroad. Local histories principally credit four, free black residents with leading the aid network in this area: Rev. John Fidler, Elias Rouse, Joseph Crawley, and James Graham. Just to the south of the River Mountain property are 13 unmarked graves of enslaved people who died traveling the route to freedom.
