⭐️ Here’s a quick list of common questions asked about our Retreats! ⭐️
DO I HAVE TO RIDE?
Not at all! We’ve often had unstarted horses come along for exposure as well as small ponies and horses people don’t choose to ride for a variety of reasons. Because there are two coaches we’re able to adapt exercises to continue giving you valuable content, even during ridden sessions. Retreats are a great opportunity to expose a young horse in a safe and supportive environment.
WHAT IF I HAVE CONFIDENCE CHALLENGES?
Please come along! We prefer to market these weekends as an opportunity for you to build new skills. We understand that most of our attendees will be feeling challenged in some situations and we’re here to help you through those challenges at your pace and level.
I DON’T FEEL LIKE I HAVE THE SKILLS TO ATTEND
Yes you do! We work with you at the level you’re at. We practice in an environment of zero judgement of yourself, or others. Our attendees are always there for each other, cheering everyone’s successes, however small or large.
DO I NEED TO HAVE A HORSE TO ATTEND?
As a general rule yes, you do. We may have some very limited opportunities to provide horses in the future. These will be limited to one space at each Retreat when they occur.
WHY CAN’T YOU DO A RETREAT IN MY AREA?
We very carefully select venues to suit our wonderful clients. We know you don’t want to stand out in the wet and cold all weekend (neither do we!) and we know you want some creature comforts at the end of the day. We also want to offer you opportunities to put your new skills into practical settings. Our venues are selected to cover things like obstacle courses, warm lounge areas etc.
