Move Forward From: Surviving To Thriving
These proven and researched life skills programs are designed to empower women in their life journeys, helping them to move forward with confidence and reclaim their power by building critical life skills that are paralleled back to their own worlds in a safe and unique environment!
Develop Healthy Life Skills.
This learner-based educational experience with horses is effective, powerful, positive, educational, and creative. It emphasizes facilitating life skills through positively reinforced interaction with horses. These programs are not a bandage effect for humans; they're life changing with proven results with a 5-year research study with the University of Calgary, Saskatoon and Regina.
Discover New Awareness Of Self.
As a prey animal, horses are sensitive to the stimulus of each participant. They react to the stimulus through body language and participants must adjust their feelings and behaviours to work successfully with the horses. As facilitators listen to a horse’s non-verbal communication, together, they have the ability to walk participants through to finding life-altering change and empower participants to discover new awareness of self.
Feel Confident & Competent.
This is NOT a HORSE THERAPY COURSE! Women are guided by the horses and facilitators to come to their own decisions and work on building life skills to help them move forward with their lives, to build skills and to truly tap into their potential! There is no riding in this program, but rather working with the horses on the ground. The horses work hard to push us to a new level where we can feel confident and competent in ourselves and in our abilities.
Skills For Life.
Life skills that empower women to live their best life.
This isn’t a loose cannon. We can guarantee an outcome. The learned skills don’t just stay in the arena with the horses. All objectives are paralleled back to everyday life and help you to gain the skills and the self-esteem necessary to live the life you were truly meant for.
What People Are Saying
Abby
"Are there even words? Alive…alive is the word I left with. Is there anything better than going home from an event feeling embraced by an internal strength? I have known for a while where my heart has been pulling me, after this retreat I am ready to fill my life with passion and feel ALIVE!!"

"TRULY AUTHENTIC! Discovery, inspiration and healing are words I would use to describe my experience. As soon as I walked in I felt welcome and safe. It was great how the classroom part led into the working with the horses. They are amazing teachers. Combined with the guidance and insight [from my facilitator] made the experience so meaningful and true. The people and horses here will always have a special place in my heart. I will be back for more!!"
Female Client
"Although I love horses, I don't have much experience with them... It was truly magical. Approximately nine months later, I am still finding that I am learning things from this experience as I reflect back. I would highly recommend this fun, informative, uplifting and inspiring course for any woman who is struggling to find herself. The course and the women who teach it are one of a kind."
"There is something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a man."
