Testimonials
“Great way to connect with other women, to be in nature, all while challenging myself physically & mentally. I also loved that all I had to do was pack my stuff & didn’t have to worry about anything else.”
“J’ai appris à me détacher de mon quotidien et à juste écouter mon corps et l’environnement qui m’entoure”
“Une belle expérience et un moyen de s’évader dans la nature tout en surmontant nos craintes à travers l’escalade, le yoga et la méditation. Une belle manière de se recentrer sur soi et de pousser nos limites.”

Rock Climbing Instructor | Monitrice Rocher FQME
Hey I’m Emma!
I've been climbing for over 10 years all around the world, and have been teaching climbing in Quebec for 8 years. I created Climbing Escapes from my love for climbing, for the outdoors, and for human connection. Through climbing I learned a lot about myself and found the courage to face my fears, overcome uncertainty and tackle life courageously, no matter the risks, doubts, and limiting beliefs that go through my mind. I want to share with you this experience that has touched many, and empower you to find courage to live a life that reflects your most authentic self.

Testimonials
“Je trouve que tous les deux Emma et Léonie ont une belle patience en tant qu’instructrices. Le cours de yoga était bien imagé avec les mots (bien expliqué), ce qui m’a permis de mieux comprendre les mouvements et positions tout en restant les yeux fermés. Pour l’escalade, les instructions étaient claires et amusantes et ça été une belle initiation à l’escalade de voie extérieure. Je trouve que le fait d’avoir combiné ces deux activités était parfait et complémentaire.”
“Cette retraite est tout ce qu’il nous faut lorsqu’on a besoin de déconnecter, tout en faisant quelque chose que nous aimons. 🥰 Emma par son concept unique permet de faire connecter des femmes différentes qui ont toutes, l’histoire de quelques jours, la même détermination à dépasser leurs limites. 🙏🌿 C’est une expérience unique, magique et douce que je recommande à toutes. MERCI pour tout! ❤️
PS: et la nourriture est super bonne... une raison de plus d’y aller hihi! 🍓🥐☕️”
