MARY PREFONTAINE, CPCC + RYT250
Mary holds accreditations from the International Coaches Federation, The University of British Columbia, and Yoga Alliance. Guided by her purpose to elevate human consciousness, Mary works extensively in the area of human potential with individuals and organizations. Her coaching and consulting practice revolves around the deeper and more meaningful questions, “What does the world need that is uniquely mine to give?” “What is the impact I hope to have for generations to come?”
Prior to creating Hallam Prefontaine + Associates, a coaching + consulting business, Mary spent 25 years as a senior executive, leading teams in marketing, communications and business development. For nearly a decade, Mary was the CEO of ICAN, the Institute for Career Advancement Needs, a leadership institute based in the USA whose mission is to educate leaders to inspire transformation within their organizations and communities. She is a professional thinking partner for leaders in Canada, the USA and Europe, where she collaborates with leaders to foster awareness, and skill, for the necessary conversations to inspire growth and innovation. Recently, she co-founded Mind Into Matter Yoga School, where she brings her leadership to Yoga Teacher Trainings around the globe.
Travel has been, and continues to be, one of her greatest teachers. And her love of nature and humanity in all its pain and beauty is her guide. She believes standing on foreign lands in wildly remote places is no different than standing on the edge of her yoga mat in Warrior Three. They both ask the same thing – to be fully present, aware of the subtle body and the invitation to quiet the mind.
Mary currently resides on the traditional territory of the Malahat Nation on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada where nature, community and beauty are her constant companions.
“Leadership is the ability to identify, invite, convene and steward the essential conversations to evoke transformation.”

WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT MARY PREFONTAINE
Mary Prefontaine is a high-level thinker who delivers exceptional results no matter how challenging the task or initiative. Mary has an incredible gift for bringing people together to create real impact. As as an Associate trained in our product, Emergenetics, she is an excellent facilitator, speaker and analyst, whom I would recommend for any organization who needs human capital development.
Working with Mary was not a typical program in leadership. It was a journey into the self. It was more than just how to be a leader or a teacher, it was about learning to stand in my truth and purpose. About arriving at a place of human adulthood where I could know and be my deepest natural self. Where I could communicate from a place of mindfulness instead of fear or self-doubt. Where I could tap into what made me uniquely beautiful and have that radiate throughout my life, my family and my community.
