Meet your host
Margaret Mullinary
Margaret discovered the grounding power of yoga while raising her young boys, quickly realizing how a steady practice could support her through the ever-changing seasons of motherhood. She earned her 200-hour teaching certificate in 2021 and soon became a familiar face in the Pittsburgh yoga community, guiding regular classes with warmth and intention. In 2024, she deepened her studies with an additional 300-hour certification, expanding her passion for mindful movement and holistic well-being.
At Roots Yoga, Margaret is devoted to creating an environment where students feel supported, connected, and inspired. Her mission extends beyond the physical practice—she hopes to cultivate a welcoming community where people can grow, breathe, and truly feel at home. In her classes and on retreat, you can expect thoughtful sequencing, an emphasis on breath, and space to build strength from the inside out. She aims for every student to leave feeling grounded, embodied, and renewed.
When she’s not on her mat or planning meaningful retreat experiences, Margaret loves being outdoors and spending time with her family.
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.
