Horse and Human Collaboration - Intro and Workshop
We're hosting a 2-hour, hands-on Horse and Human Collaboration workshop. We'll share the Red Horse philosophy and values on working with horses in a willing collaboration that embraces a new paradigm of leadership.
We'll share practical tips, stories, and concepts, reflective of who's there and what you'd like to learn or work on.
We'll also share insights about the herd, and what we've learned from listening to the horses...
This is created with Red Horse volunteers in mind, while it's also open to others who would like to join.
Sun., July 19 11 am
FIRST FRIDAY
Herd Meditations
A quiet couple of hours in the company of horses.
Relax, restore, and reflect by attending a Herd Meditation at Red Horse Center in Fennville, MI.
Herd Meditations offer peace, quiet, fresh air, and some time to slow things down with a supportive herd of horses.
The herd meditation consists of small groups of people gathering together, with optional introductions followed by a brief, calming meditative exercise. Participants are then invited to join the herd at their own pace and at whatever distance feels comfortable. As we regather, short reflections are shared. No horse experience is required.
First Fridays

Trauma Informed Lens - Workshop Series
Monday, June 1 | Community Organizations
A facilitated workshop exploring how to prepare ourselves and our spaces to mindfully support each other in our current context of individual and collective trauma.
It is a workshop series committed to improving the culture of connection and service to others.
Variable Pricing from $75 to $180 per person
Context: Who is this for and how does it apply?
The principles of trauma-informed care are a paradigm shift for the care of self and others, professionally and personally.
Understanding how to implement these principles can positively influence your interactions and your ability to support clients and collaborators. Learning how to apply these insights is helpful within many professional roles, including health care, education & teachers, community support organizations, and leaders of all kinds.
There are many positive outcomes available when we embody and work through a trauma-informed lens. This is essential for therapists and other caretakers who are responsible for helping clients heal from trauma.
It is extremely helpful when in non-therapeutic relationships with other people, like co-workers, team members, and customers. This can be a transformational view of how to connect with others in any context.
