About this Event

Equine Therapy & Body Movement


Equine Therapy & Wellness Retreat May 1–3 | Tumalo, Oregon

This intimate, trauma-informed retreat is designed for military women seeking connection, nervous system regulation, and space to reconnect with themselves and others in a supportive, peer-based environment.

Through equine-assisted experiences, gentle movement, sound, creativity, and shared community, this retreat offers time to slow down, listen inward, and restore a sense of safety and belonging.

This is a no-cost retreat with limited capacity to protect depth, presence, and care.


What This Retreat Is About

This retreat is centered on
• Connection rather than fixing
• Regulation rather than pushing
• Choice rather than expectation
• Community rather than isolation

All activities are invitational. You are always welcome to opt in, opt out, rest, or observe based on what feels supportive for you in the moment.

Experiences include
• Equine-assisted connection with horses
• Gentle yoga, walking, and body movement-dance
• Sound, music, and creative expression
• Reflection and integration circles
• Shared meals and time in nature


You do not need prior experience with horses, yoga, or art.


Who This Retreat Is For

This retreat may be a good fit if you
• Are a military woman seeking connection and grounding
• Want time away from constant responsibility and performance
• Are open to holistic, body-based experiences
• Value peer-based support and community

You do not need to share your story. You do not need to participate in everything. You do not need to be “ready” for anything other than being present.


What This Retreat Is Not

• This retreat does not replace mental health care or licensed therapy
• This is not a clinical treatment program
• This is not a high-intensity or physically demanding retreat

For safety and care
No alcohol, weapons, or drugs are permitted
• This is a substance-free space


Setting and Accommodations

The retreat takes place at Healing Reins Equine Therapy Arena in Tumalo, Oregon.

• Sleeping on cots, either indoors or outdoors
• You may bring a blow-up mattress or sleeping pad/tent if desired
• Indoor restrooms and port-a-potties are available onsite; showers are not available
• Access to electricity and a refrigerator

This is a rustic, nature-based setting. Comfort, flexibility, and layered clothing are encouraged.


Participation and Commitment

Because this retreat is offered at no cost and space is limited, your commitment matters.

If your plans change after registering, we ask that you notify us as soon as possible so another woman may be offered your spot.
