This retreat is designed specifically for military and first responder personnel (active duty, reserve & veteran), particularly those who have seen combat. You will walk away with tools to focus your mind and renew your spirit. Classroom time will involve a lot of physical activity, that will be supplemented by equine facilitated learning and other activities at the ranch.
