Here is a reminder of our remaining workshops for 2025 that still have spaces - if you might be considering having some time to do something valuable for yourselves!
Equine Assisted Soul Experience (EASE)
Starting very soon on Sat 28th June at 4 pm, and finishing on Wed 2nd July at 12.30 pm.
Cost sliding scale from £825 - £975, all lunches and dinners provided.
When the soul of a horse meets the soul of a human, magic unfolds, we say, and we have indeed witnessed many, many moments which can be described as magic.
Focused around the shamanic Soul Recognition journey, an authentic community is formed of participants and our team of facilitators, and, of course, the close proximity of the HeartShore Herd. We share 5 days of close company, deep sharing and beautiful modalities, such as, poetry, movement, soul-connecting exercises, and enriching engagements with the horses. By the 5th day, you will have visited with your soul's Purpose in this life-time, and you will have rested deeply in the joyful Grace of the Open Heart.

Being In The World But Not Of It : this two day workshop is a valued, on-going collaboration between myself and Brooke Medicine Eagle.
Sat 16th Aug - Sun 17th Aug. Both days begin at 9 am and finish at 4 pm
Cost : £375, bring packed lunch.
Brooke has been opening further to the Teachings of White Buffalo Woman and, in this year's workshop, we will be exploring how to remain in our authentic Centre whilst the World, with all its glory, and all its challenges, spins around us.
We will experience Wisdom Teachings, practise our inner silence out on the Land, share from the Heart, dance, sing sacred songs ... and, of course, receive Horse Medicine from the HeartShore Herd !

Drum-Birthing with Louisa Shorney and Dawn Oakley-Smith
Friday 29th Aug - Sun 31st Aug. Both days begin at 10 am, and finish at 4 pm
Cost : £495, to include all materials, bring packed lunch.
At the end of this workshop, you will have birthed your own shamanic, hide Drum and beater.
This is a unique opportunity to work with two medicine women to craft a beautiful and powerful shamanic artefact, deeply personal to you. Through shamanic journeying, ritual and ceremony, you will be Guided to meet the Spirit of the hide and the hoop as you draw them together in the form of your Drum. At the start of the workshop, you will make a distinctive connection with one of the horses who will become your Companion as you birth your Drum, even assisting with your choosing of the sacred hide.

The theme of this year's Horse Dance is Dancing With The Beloved. It is a familiar Wisdom, offered by our spiritual Teachers, that the true Beloved is to be found Within.
