Ravenheart Equine Assisted Learning Centre & Retreat

Ravenheart is is located approximately 15 minutes north of Kamsack, Saskatchewan, Canada.

Well-being and personal development with horses and equine-assisted learning.

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.

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.

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.

Ravenheart Farms offers cozy rooms, healthy natural food, nature trails, bird watching, the company of sweet horses and friendly dogs, expressive arts, nature-based learning, meditation, or just being! Retreat options include organized workshops for groups and individuals such as the Primal Fire and Horses, Spirit & Play, custom-designed stays, or your own personally designed retreats. Come for a day, a few days or more!
