Clémentine - Accompagnatrice en Montagne
Clémentine - Accompagnatrice en Montagne

A mountain guide and sports instructor (professional card 2025), Clémentine guides trail runners with an approach that is demanding, safe , and above all, friendly , based on sharing and listening to one's body . Based in La Grave, in the heart of the Hautes-Alpes, she is very familiar with alpine terrain and the specific challenges of exertion in the mountains .


Her expertise goes beyond traditional coaching. Following a serious mountain accident in 2024, Clémentine had to relearn how to walk, then how to train, starting from scratch. Surrounded for two years by doctors, physiotherapists, osteopaths, sports coaches, and yoga instructors, she gained a deep understanding of the body in motion, injury prevention , and strategies for sustainable progress.


Its goal: to help you progress in trail running while respecting your abilities, gain confidence on technical terrain and leave with concrete tools to continue training without getting injured.


With Clémentine, this stay is much more than a trail running course: it is an experience guided by a professional who knows what it means to rebuild, progress and perform, putting sharing first.

Flore - Prof de yoga fonctionnel
Flore - Prof de yoga fonctionnel

A qualified yoga teacher, Flore specializes in functional yoga, a modern and accessible approach designed to support the body in daily movement and effort, and more specifically in sports practice.


His teaching is based on four essential pillars: strength, flexibility, mobility, and recovery . These fundamentals are indispensable for preventing injuries, improving the efficiency of athletic movements, and allowing the body to last over time without pain or overexertion.


During this trail running retreat, Flore offers sessions specifically designed for trail runners: preparing the body before exertion, targeted mobility and strengthening exercises, active recovery after runs, breathing techniques, and tension release. Each activity is adapted to the level and needs of the participants, with particular attention paid to the muscle groups used in trail running.


The goal is not performance at all costs, but a strong, mobile and available body, to continue practicing trail running for a long time, with pleasure and serenity.
