a clear vision, focus, and plan for what’s next in your life
Ready to break free of what’s holding you back?
The Unbridled Retreat® is devoted to reconnecting to your authentic self – with the help of horses, nature, and supportive women. Immerse yourself in 4 days of transformation and life-changing breakthroughs at a beautiful Colorado dude ranch.
The Unbridled Retreat® is an adventure for your mind, body and soul.
This is an empowering retreat, an opportunity to break free of what holds you back. It’s not only a change of scenery — it’s the perfect backdrop for transformation. Explore the wide open spaces of Colorado. Reconnect with yourself. Have your heart touched with the magic of horses. And make friends for life.
Why it works:
Horses are highly intuitive and are masters at reading human body language. They sense your energy and see you for who you are, not who you pretend to be.
Horses give you honest, non-judgmental feedback which help you reclaim your authentic self.
The Unbridled Retreat® frees you like no other. You’ll share moments with horses and supportive women that change the way you see yourself, provide clarity, and help you become the most courageous, authentic version of you…guaranteed.
At the end, you’ll be kicking up mountain dust
and galloping into the future with:
You can spend years in talk therapy and complain to others about what’s not working in your life, OR you can embark on a soul-stirring, life-changing adventure on a beautiful dude ranch.
There’s no playing small in Colorado where your soul can run free.
“It was like 10 years worth of personal growth in one weekend. Singularly TRANSFORMATIVE.”

Frequently Asked Questions
I’ve never ridden a horse before. Is this right for me?
This retreat is for ALL riding levels, including if you’re brand new to horses, haven’t ridden in years, or have been riding your whole life. Sylvan Dale Ranch has wonderful, safe horses for every riding level. No horse experience necessary to attend.
What is Equine Gestalt Coaching?
Quite simply, it’s healing through horses. As prey animal, horses are highly intuitive and are masters at reading human body language.
