Overview

Embrace Your Cowgirl Spirit through Body, Mind, Equine Retreat
With International presenter and Author, Cathy Woods

Join Cathy Woods, Creator of Body, Mind, Equine TM, Author of Yoga for Riders, and international presenter for a meaningful and enriching, all-inclusive retreat experience at White Stallion Ranch.

In this 4-night women’s empowerment retreat, participants will learn mindfulness techniques to use around horses and in everyday life, along with yoga postures and principles to improve horsemanship from ground to saddle; all while embracing and exploring The Spirit of The Cowgirl and how to harness that spirit in daily life.

Heart-connect with yourself, with horses, and with the world around you more deeply. Enrich your life with this supportive retreat experience, taking home new tools to incorporate into your horsemanship and daily living. Any level of yoga or riding experience is welcome, and remember, those who embrace the Cowgirl Spirit come in all shapes, sizes, and ages and come from all walks of life so come as you are!

Cathy is a longtime retreat leader and creates a safe, supportive, non-competitive environment for retreat participants to feel fully comfortable being their authentic selves while making yoga and horsemanship accessible to all!

White Stallion Ranch is a family-owned guest ranch with the amenities of a fine resort. Immerse yourself in the serenity of nature while riding through the unspoiled Sonoran desert.

Your spacious, well-appointed room is the perfect spot to unwind after a busy day of activities.  All of your meals are prepared daily by our professional ranch chef and offer a variety of choices.  White Stallion Ranch is listed in USA Today 10Best Readers’ Choice Award – Best Dude Ranch 2023 and Trip Advisors’ #1 property of 140 hotels in Tucson for 9 consecutive years.

In addition to horseback riding, you can enjoy a spin on the fat-tire e-bikes, do some target shooting or archery, or test your physical strength on our professional rock-climbing course. There is also a spa for some self-indulgence with a massage, body treatment, or facial. Spa services are not included in your package. Experience all Cathy’s retreat has to offer while being pampered in the comfort of White Stallion Ranch.
