Ravenheart Equine Assisted Learning Centre & Retreat
Description
Equine-guided personal growth & discovery through equine-assisted and experiential learning activities and life coaching. "It’s off the beaten track but I am sure you’ll find your way." Connie Kaldor (Love,Saskatchewan)
Ravenheart is is located approximately 15 minutes north of Kamsack, Saskatchewan, Canada.
We offer a variety of programs, workshops, and retreats, partnering with horses through Equine-Assisted Learning (EAL), life coaching, and nature-based educational experiences.
Partnering with horses can be a powerful and effective journey of self-discovery, healing, and personal development, allowing people to gain insights and awareness into unconscious patterns, and to find alternative skills to draw on when faced with difficult life challenges. A variety of fun, engaging, and reflective activities with horses are facilitated in a gentle, respectful way, for individuals, families, and groups/teams.
Anyone can participate, and no previous horse experience is necessary and there is no riding involved.
Imagine embarking on a transformational journey with a horse without ever climbing into the saddle. Imagine looking deeply into that horse's eyes and seeing your own authentic self reflected back. Equine Assisted Learning (EAL) is a compelling journey of clarity and understanding. Horses are powerful teachers as they immediately respond to the actions, body language, and energy of the participant. They can inspire our authenticity and awaken our spirit. The focus of EAL is not riding or horsemanship specific. All activities happen on the ground, usually at liberty (no tack or equipment).
As a Certified Equine Assisted Learning Specialist, Carol Marriott helps participants become aware of their energy while engaging with the horses. Horses pick up on our subtle body language and feelings such as tension, fear, happiness, sadness, anger, grief and confusion. Horses are always in the moment, and their "feedback" is clear, immediate, non-judging and authentic, based on how horses naturally behave.
Equine-Assisted Learning (EAL) is a powerful and effective method of experiential learning in which a variety of fun and engaging activities with horses are used for personal growth.
It is helpful for people of all ages and all walks of life, including corporate, professional, and personal development. No horse experience is necessary and there is no riding involved.

One of our "herd" members could really use some extra support right now. You can support her by purchasing this wonderful interview series from some of the best in the field...yes, the field too! I purchased mine a few months ago during the tele-summit, and now can listen at my own convenience. An great price for a wonderful resource, and a way to surround and support Dierdre who gathered the herd in this spectacular way.♥

My Living
I used to say this and now have 3 cabins in the middle of now-here. I now say I Wish for a trustworthy, capable carpenter/handy person to come stay in the cabin of their choice for a month or so, bring their tools, apply their hard work and skills. In exchange we will provide a hot meal a day, cabin with power and comfortably furnished, access to WiFi, peace and quiet, books, great coffee, and the company of fine animal friends. If this is you, or you know this person, send a pm with references and contact info. Perfect for the retired but energetic, nature-loving person. 15 minute drive to Duck Mountain Provincial Park, Saskatchewan. Walk, hike, kayak, bike!
