Kirkwood Sierra Outfitters x Tahoe Rising

This collaboration with Tahoe Rising blends the rugged, real-deal backcountry experience of Kirkwood Sierra Outfitters with grounded, somatic work with our equine partners.

Equine Alchemy

Join your experienced guide and seasoned trail horse to a secluded lake where the connection between horses and humans thrives. You'll work alongside a highly intuitive horse who responds not to your words, but to your breath, your nervous system, and your energy. Through guided interaction, awareness, and gentle facilitation you'll begin to soften, regulate, and reconnect.
