A ‘WORKING RANCH’ VACATION IN THE US

Spirit of the Horse Riding Weekends at Gunflint Lodge, Grand Marais, Minnesota

Do you love horses? Do you want to nurture their spirit and yours? Join other women in creating a learning environment that truly honors each being. Learn to appreciate the horse as a sensitive being capable of forming relationships. Take leisurely trail rides through the north woods at the height of the fall’s color, and prepare for these excursions by being a part of a women's workshop where one can learn about bonding to her horse through instruction and time spent grooming the horse. Learn about human and horse communication, and how horses think. Receive basic riding instruction, and participate in yoga for equestrian's classes to help improve ones basic alignment, riding posture, and relaxation response to promote greater harmony with the horse.

As a compliment to learning horsewoman skills, time will be taken for reflection and guided imagery used to explore what the horse means to participants as teacher, totem, dream, and vision. Music and energy work will be integrated into the instruction as a means of helping everyone move into her highest vision.

There will be a structured workshop format, as well as some free time to rest and relax. This 3-night retreat is limited to 10 participants. Cost is $443.00 per person plus service charge and sales tax, which includes: accommodations, all meals, all horse back rides, all of the facilitators’ sessions and canoes, boats and motors.
