Guides
Debbie Simon

Debbie is an avid hiker and yoga teacher and loves combining her yoga in nature. She is also a 500 hour RYT and has been instrumental in the formation of our workshops and and leads our 10 hour CEU Yoga for Hikers Workshop.
When asked why the outdoors are important, Debbie answered, "Outdoors is where we get our best breath, where we can be united with all that nature has to offer, we learn about ourselves, the change of weather teaches us to accept life as it is and still go outside. Being outside is life giving and a connection to something greater than ourselves."
In addition to Exploring all of the local trails at home, Debbie embodies the ExploreMore spirit when she travels as well! When asked about her favorite outdoor activity, Debbie answered "Hiking is my favorite outdoor activity. I love being in the realness of nature that a hike presents. I am my truest self when I hike. I hike locally and always find a trail when I go out of town."
Thank you for joining the team Debbie!

Sarah De Leon

Sarah De Leon got connected to us through the Texas Trailhead Collective. She attended our Yoga for Hikers Workshop in January of 2022 and quickly joined out team. She loves Big Cedar and Dogwood Canyon and often joins workdays with Texas Land Conservancy at Oak Cliff Nature Preserve. She also leads hike, yoga and brews at all of these locations. Check our full calendar and register for one of her hikes here.
When asked why the outdoors are important to her, Sarah said "I grew up always wanting to be outside, and with parents who constantly took me on adventures. To me its freedom, beauty, and overall health. It can be exciting or relaxing. Really whatever you need it to be in the moment, the outdoors is always there for you."
When asked why she wants to be a guide, Sarah said "To share my passion for the outdoors, and to show people that it can be a part of their daily or weekly lives right here at home, rather than just something to look forward to on a once a year vacation."
Thank you for joining the team Sarah!
