Events & Retreats Inviting Profound Connection
The Keepers
Horses & Humans
The horses being wise and gentle have capacity to read human emotion, mirror unspoken feelings, and offer grounding presence.
Together we form field of presence where authentic connection can unfold supporting the healing journey of every participant.
Horses respond to subtle cues in body language, energy, and breath. This makes them powerful allies in helping participants reconnect with their bodies, release tension, and find calm.
Spending time with our Equine Healing Partners is not about riding; it’s about meeting them at eye level, heart to heart. Through guided interactions, guests often expereince a sense of safety and belonging.

Gianna Brasil-Ross, J.D.
Co- Facilitator, super multi~skilled human.
Gianna has been dancing most of her life, and movement remains at the heart of her healing work. As a certified Life Coach through the Martha Beck program, she weaves together training in Equine Assisted Practices
( EAP) art therapy, and somatic dance to create powerful pathways for transformation.
Her approach is rooted in the belief that true healing begins not only in the mind, but also in the body and creative spirit. Through somatic practices, participants learn to listen to the body’s wisdom. With expressive arts—like movement, visual art, and creative play—they access and process emotions in powerful, non-verbal ways. And with the help of horses, who offer intuitive, non-judgmental feedback, clients gain profound insights about boundaries, trust, and authentic connection.
Through guided experiences, Gianna helps participants reconnect with their inner wisdom, regulate the nervous system, and step into a more grounded and embodied presence. Passionate about creating spaces for renewal and self-discovery, she invites others to move, feel, and heal—unlocking clarity, resilience, and joy along the way.
