Schedule of Events

Join Marie for a reflective movement practice for any ability and body. Qigong practices will engage breath, posture, movement, relaxation, and visualization.

Graham, Chris, and Julie will collaborate to help you understand the power of story and bring your own story to life. Come learn the essential elements to a story, hear an example of a story, and have the opportunity to map out a story of your own!

Jenn and Jess will explore some of the differences between approaches to horses and equine therapies, including ethical and safety considerations. They will each demonstrate a few ways of being with horses that can offer support, insight, healing, and growth to participants.

Through facilitated activities, participants will explore tools to increase awareness of the body's messages about power, place, belonging, culture, lineage, and identity. Considering sensation, thought, and emotion, participants may expand their understanding of how they may develop more choicefulness in responding to experiences and interactions in various cultural contexts.

Dr. Laura will discuss how energy can affect horses' bodies, including how stuck energy can impact movement, state of mind, and overall ability to make other connections in their lives. She will highlight how chiropractic, acupuncture and other appropriate veterinary care can be helpful in supporting horse well-being. With this information in mind, Jake will demonstrate how effective communication, choices, and boundaries with horses can open a space for a deeper connection with them. Participants will be able to make connections to themselves and to the world around us.
