October 22 - 25, 2026
Join Jennifer Cohen Harper for a restorative mindfulness retreat designed to help you rest, reset, and reconnect through practices supported by the presence of horses. During this immersive experience, you’ll explore connection through body language, breath, energy, and intention, with each day blending gentle movement, journaling, group discussion, and customized horse guided activities such as inviting connection, offering support, and moving quietly through the herd. Free time offers space to wander, reflect, create, or simply rest, and you’ll head home with practical tools to bring more steadiness, compassion, and authenticity into your daily life. This non‑riding retreat is open to all experience levels, with all horse interaction from the ground and tailored to individual comfort.
Oct. 29, 2026 | 1 - 4 PM
Led by Heather Meyer of Reimagine Horsemanship, this clinic is anchored in Heather’s relationship-based framework. It is a demonstration based collaborative experience that focuses on practical rehabilitation dynamics: using energy, space, timing, and consent to navigate moments of reactivity or resistance, establishing clear boundaries and building a calm, attentive partnership anchored in trust. Watch Heather work live with rescue residents and discuss what you’ve observed, ask questions and relate your learning to the horses you work with at home. Designed for anyone interested in compassionate horsemanship, equine behavior, and building trust-filled relationships with horses.
November 5 - 8, 2026
Join senior clinician Heidi Potter for an immersive journey into the heart of equine partnership and collaborative movement. This three-day unmounted intensive takes the conversation from the field into the arena. As we explore how we can move together with the horses in collaboration, you will learn to shift away from “telling” and into a true partnership where the horse finally feels understood — and so do you.
Deepening the Bond is designed for those with some horse experience or a prior introduction to Horse Speak. This clinic is the next step for those ready to move from understanding the language into an active, collaborative partnership.
January 29 - 31, 2027
