Our Mustangs are majestic and powerful beings who give us great gifts of insight, innate respect, and deep nonverbal communication. They teach us about our energy and the importance of tempering fear with resilience and compassion. We are honored to nurture and care for them.

In this two-hour adventure, participants come to understand the horse’s perspective toward humans and learn to observe the horse’s nonverbal language. A critical component of this experience is to create a safe space for the horse and the participant. During this process, the horse is never restrained and is always free to flee if uncomfortable. Most participants have little or no prior experience with horses. In fact, many participants arrive with a fear of horses and then learn to overcome their fear. Fear, stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and anger are replaced with peace, strength, and confidence.

See mustangs interact in a herd, learn how to become their leader, and put your heart next to the biggest heart you will ever know. You will have the opportunity to:

• create a  willing relationship
• understand the need to set personal boundaries
• develop clear communication

This experience is customized to accommodate your groups’ needs and will include an opportunity to participate with your horse partner in a variety of activities.  On the last day a horse chooses who they want to be with. This gives participants an opportunity to connect with the horse and discover any message the horse would like to share with them.

Specialized workshops, seminars and trainings are formulated to meet the needs of specific areas of interest. Some examples include:

• communication skills
