You can configure a proxy with conda by adding it to the .condarc, like

proxy_servers:
    http: http://user:pass@corp.com:8080
    https: https://user:pass@corp.com:8080

or set the HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY environment variables. Note that in your case you need to add the scheme to the proxy url, like https://proxy-us.bla.com:123.

See http://conda.pydata.org/docs/config.html#configure-conda-for-use-behind-a-proxy-server.
