Italy. Tuscany.
The elements of the horse spirit
Dates: tbc

The horses provide a powerful pathway to reconnect with your divine consciousness. This compelling connection between horses and humans stimulates a higher vibration leading to higher consciousness for both humans and horses.

We will learn how to connect with the horse and ride them without a saddle.

We will use the elements of North American Indian spirituality and natural horsemanship during this workshop.

This workshop is suitable for horse lovers, horse riders and those who do not ride at all and looking for a spiritual connection with all creation and the animal kingdom in general.
No riding skills nor experience is required to partecipate.
