“This was an experience out of this world.! When we started the hike we had some expectations, but Miranda didn’t only meet them, but completely exceeded them. Miranda was extremely sweet and knowledgeable about the park, water falls, and surrounding areas. She allowed us to take our time during the hike and stopped at key points to make sure we captured the perfect picture. She even brought tea and scarfs to keep us warm! As we were doing the walk she shared very valued information as well as some personal stories that made us feel more comfortable and connected with the experience. She was very opened to answer questions and was always making sure we were good and enjoying the experience. The guided meditation and Yoga was very relaxing it allowed us to connect more with nature and clear our minds. She also took some amazing pictures and shared them the next day of the trip. Miranda thank you very much for this awesome experience!!”
“This experience was truly one of a kind! Ceiara was a phenomenal yogi and guide. Her passion for the yoga practice seeps through in the way she carries herself and the way she speaks. I left this experience refreshed, grounded, more connected, and like I made a new friend. Highly recommend this experience!”
“Great hike and yoga experience! The waterfall and forest were beautiful. Ceiara was the best guide and we enjoyed getting to know her over the 3 hours. The woods were very majestic and she did great job getting us to slow down and appreciate the views.”
“This was a great unique experience. Miranda was patient, knowledgeable and catered our yoga needs. I could have spent the entire day at the falls and doing yoga. I can’t wait to go back.”
“I had the most amazing hike, meditation, & yoga with Ceiara from Namaste with Nature. We did this as a part of my bachelorette weekend here in Asheville and everyone enjoyed it so much!! Ceiara was so nice and really made the entire experience perfect! I highly recommend this to anyone coming to Asheville!”
“By far one of the best yoga classes I've ever taken! Miranda was amazing and is a total sweetheart! So glad I found her via yelp. She's forcing me to plan another trip back to Asheville again in the future. I highly recommend her hands down!”
“We had an amazing experience. It was such a refreshing time. Miranda, our guide was amazing and so nice. This Waterfall yoga hike added 5 years to my life. We definitely recommend this as a must if you're in the area-local or tourist.”
“Ceiara was wonderful as was the hike, waterfall view, meditation and the yoga practice! The private spot selected for practice was so serene with the sounds of the river in the background. The class sequence and duration was spot on with our level of experience! Ceiara was a delight and it was so nice getting to know a bit more about her yoga journey and family as we hiked along. She also shared interesting historical facts about the trail and provided additional local recommendations including a brunch spot we visited right after — Sunny Point Cafe :) — delish! We highly recommend her and this experience!”
Waterfalls, hike, yoga - perfect!
“We had an amazing time hiking the Catawba falls. Starting the hike early ensures a peaceful and not crowded trail. It was a bit chilly in the morning so Miranda brought tea for everyone before we headed out. She knows so much about Asheville trails and can give you tips and recommendations! We had a beautiful meditation near the falls and a awakening yoga class to start the day! Recommend 100%!”
“I loved getting to know Miranda and we had a great time hiking, meditating by the waterfalls, and doing yoga in the woods. A butterfly joined us and just hung out on my hand for the entire yoga session! The hike was beautiful and a nice start to the morning, and the falls were majestic. Miranda has so many interesting life stories to share and was a really positive, enjoyable person to be around. She also sent me some wonderful pictures of our morning which I love and plan to share with others! I heartily recommend the namaste in nature experience with Miranda!”
The yoga and hike with Miranda was an excellent experience! Miranda is warm and welcoming to everyone, regardless of your experience with yoga (or lack of experience). The yoga was so relaxing on the mountainside, and it was a great way to warm-up before the hike. We hiked to a beautiful peak, and Miranda took pictures throughout the experience... I definitely recommend this. It's well worth it.
This was one of the highlights of my trip! Beautiful hike and the waterfall was so relaxing! As a photographer, I am constantly looking for shots to take and hardly ever in photographs. It was awesome that Miranda took photos and sent them to us. It let me be in the moment and not connected to my phone or camera. Yoga in the woods was great. It wasn’t super hard or too easy. It was very calming to be in the woods with glimmers of sunshine coming through the trees. Perfect day!
“This was my favorite part of the trip to Asheville. Miranda was great!! She easily tailored the yoga to my skill level. It was so exhilarating to do yoga and mediate in nature. I can’t wait to go back and do it again!”
Hiking, yoga, and meditation at Catawba Falls
This was such a wonderful experience! I would DEFINITELY recommend this to everyone! Miranda was an amazing yoga instructor - very friendly, fun and flexible to our small group. The hike was beautiful and not too challenging and the yoga was great. Miranda has a beautiful spot where she sets up to do yoga and she provides yoga mats.
She also took a bunch of pictures for us! Absolutely no complaints. Really great experience! I would do it again and again.
A New Way to Connect with Asheville
My husband and I love Asheville and visit several times a year. Typically, we go to a lot of breweries, restaurants, and then some more breweries. This time we were looking to be more active, so we decided to try Namaste in Nature. We figured it would be a good multitasking activity: get a workout while exploring the outdoors.
Miranda, our instructor, led us on an amazing and memorable hike to Catawba Falls. The hike was relatively easy, with only a few rocky and steep areas. We hiked for about a mile to the waterfall, where we stopped to meditate for a bit.
We then hiked back a few minutes until we got to a flat area of land away from the trail. Here, we had an hour-long yoga class. As a yoga instructor, Miranda was very accommodating and laid back. She happily customized the class to our expertise level. We've done yoga before and we're runners, so she focused on poses that she knew we could handle and would be helpful for runners.
This was an awesome way to connect with Asheville in a new way. It was a uniquely Asheville experience. I highly recommend a morning yoga hike with Namaste in Nature. It's great for beginners or experienced Yogis alike.
