wild mountain reset

ReWilding on a Horse is a 3-day immersive retreat where horsemanship becomes a mirror for healing. Each participant is paired with their own horse,one you’ll learn to care for, connect with, and ride each day through the wild beauty of Pine Valley.

Guided by skilled horsemen and guide, you’ll uncover how your body holds emotion, how triggers arise, and how presence and regulation can transform both. Through daily lessons and connections, you’ll learn to understand and heal the patterns that once kept you in survival.

Each day we move between movement and stillness—riding into the mountains, sitting in tipi circles, cold plunging, and sharing reflection by the fire. It’s not just a retreat; it’s a remembering of who you are beneath the noise, and the power that comes when you lead yourself the way a true horseman leads with calm, clarity, and heart.
