Who it’s for

This day retreat is perfect for anyone seeking grounding, self-awareness, soul-connection and community. No horse experience required — only an open heart.

At WillowCrest, horses are our partners in healing. Their grounded presence opens a pathway into stillness, awareness, and emotional release. Our retreats blend equine-assisted practices with energy healing and holistic wellness, creating spaces where people can reconnect with their true selves.
