Kelsi is a lifelong Montanan who found her way back to a slower pace of life in the mountains she loves, settling in the Flathead Valley in 2024. She teaches yin yoga, holding space for deep connection with body, mind, spirit, and the whole of creation. Her teaching gently guides you toward a felt sense of safety and trust within your body, helping you release old patterns and open to life’s abundance.

In her free time, you’ll find her in her garden or the woods, tending herbs and making medicine, or passionately sharing her latest studies of nature, consciousness, and existence. Nourishing and transforming with Nature’s wisdom is at the heart of everything she does.

Heather Mah is a yoga teacher, certified health and wellness coach, and the Director of Operations at Samaa Living. As part of her role there, she plans and helps facilitate retreats that bring people together through yoga, meditation, nature, and meaningful community.

Heather’s path is inspired by the wisdom of yoga and Taoist philosophy, and guided by a simple belief: healing begins when the body remembers safety. Her approach is grounded, intuitive, and deeply human. With decades of yoga practice and years of study in meditation, energy work, and embodiment practices, Heather brings a calm and steady presence to the spaces she holds.

Heather has supported clients through hundreds of hours of private coaching, women’s circles, group coaching programs, and workshops in Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). Through this coaching work, Heather integrates the science of neuroplasticity, supporting people in rewiring the brain to shift old patterns and cultivate lasting change. She has also studied energy-based healing modalities, including Chi Nei Tsang, which informs her interest in the relationship between the body, emotions, and the nervous system.

She loves music, movement, and the simple joy of being fully alive in the body. Her approach weaves together yoga, breath, nervous system awareness, meaningful conversation, and moments of laughter, dancing, and deep rest.

At heart, Heather is a student of life — endlessly curious about consciousness, embodiment, and the sacred experience of being human. She is especially passionate about helping women rediscover safety and vitality in their bodies — because from that place, intuition becomes clearer, creativity returns, and this human experience becomes more joyful.
