Hanah LaBarre
Leadership & Movement Teacher
Hanah was born in a country below sea level and grew up befriending elves, invertebrates and amphibians in the jungles of Nainital, the hedgerows of Surrey, the waterfalls of the Berkshires and the austere Dakota plains. She sent down roots in the Finger Lakes, explored the North Cascades and earned a B.S. in Plant Science and Rural Sociology (Reed College and Cornell University). She pedaled the country from San Diego to Bar Harbor.
Hanah leaned into a life of environmental, science and wilderness education in Maine, straying briefly to earn her M.Ed. at Lesley University and since 2002 has worked and played in schools throughout New England—public, private, formal, informal and somewhere in between.
Hanah has also been a surveyor, a cross-country coach, a cook, an activist, a massage therapist and a muralist. She is passionate about sharing her love of wild places and the inherent wisdom of the earth; she prefers travel by foot, ski, canoe and bicycle and continues to lead journeys with Kroka Expeditions.
