One with Horse: A Southwest Riding Retreat
Imagine the gentle autumn light warming your face and bringing a sparkle to your horse’s eye. It is the end of the day and you have just dismounted from a glorious ride. As you stand with your horse you can smell the desert mesquite tree. You stand in union as the sun drops down behind the mountains leaving a deep red glow. Your horse licks, chews, and sighs. All of your troubles have faded away and your heart, hips, and entire body is vibrating with aliveness. You are tired after a full day of being outside and at the same time you feel an energy and vitality you may not have felt for years.
Please send us an email, and we will let you know when the next program is scheduled.
Would you like to:
Honor yourself and take the time to create partnership with one special and willing horse?
- Would you like to open your heart and hips, through movement and horseback riding, enhancing your inner vitality and confidence?
- Are you willing to giggle and laugh out loud with new friends over a delightful meal (that someone else cooked)?
- Are you ready to leave the stresses of life behind you, expand your senses, and riding in oneness with Horse? Then carry that lightness of being into your every day life?
- Would you like to have one horse to partner with and explore what true oneness means, through mind and body, turning you into the Goddess on a Horse you have always dreamed of?
One with Horse Riding Retreat offers you a mind, body, and breath-centered approach to expand your ability to ride in unity with Horse. It will light you up from the inside out. You will bring aliveness and joy to your horse and enjoy the exploration of expansion with your four-legged companion.
We will spend time in movement to unblock your body limitations and access new ways of moving. You will gain a great sense of inner freedom in both your mind and body, and your horse will show you the difference. Taking these experiences home to your own horse will change your partnership forever.
During this retreat you will be matched with a ranch horse to partner with during the entire program. Experience how to be a conscious rider, bringing flow and oneness to the relationship.
A note from Kathy:
“I have spent years releasing blocked energy and finding more freedom in my body while riding, especially in my hips and heart. This process opened up my creativity, aliveness, and sense of inner self in a way that no other activity had (including yoga, skiing, mountain climbing, dancing etc). The tools I offer are a wonderful blend of movement, meditation, visualization, breath-work, awareness of energy and how to communicate at a spiritual level with one’s horse. I have worked with beginner to high-level riders coaching them to move beyond their current limitations into a more expansive co-creative partnership through using the Mind Body Method Coaching model.
During this three-day retreat, you will learn how to engage the energy of LOVE so you may harmonize with horse through your whole being. This is one of my very favorite programs as it excites me to see the change both horse and the human. We learn with the horses and we also have a blast with each other. This is a true girlfriend get away!”
Join us for this retreat if you are ready to:
Learn breathing techniques to signify transitions on the ground and in the saddle — moving in sync and unity.
