2018 Tribe Day- Germany
The first two days were the most intense collaboration, critical analysis of practices, envisions, planning, future design discussions, brainstorming work I have ever done. Yes, other workshops have this type of work, but New Trails Learning Systems is different. Even the personal stories of our trainers and leaders are emotionally laden, incredibly powerful and humbling, and still, these folks give and give and give!
Our first ever workshop in magical Norway
Our first ever Horse Boy Method workshop in Norway took place on 1 and 2 September 2018 in Fåvang. The workshop was hosted by our Horse Boy practitioner Emma Helleman at her magical care farm Mattisborgen IPT Gård. She did an amazing job at preparing her farm and horses, Alex and Tindra, for the 6 participants in the workshop.
Father and Son- Magical Reconnect
Having a traumatic brain injury can be limiting and frustrating. Simple task become a challenge and memory can play daily tricks that are not enjoyable at all and make one feel like a fool.
One of our veterans has come a long way from almost never speaking to conversing and opening up after long trail ride in canter and especially after learning to jump. After one of those successful jumping lessons where Clue was just a charm and made sure the rhythm and joy of jumping was truly experienced by the soldier rider, the father of three came up to me and shared. He loved jumping, and he mentioned how happy and relaxed it made him. He said it kept him going, and Clue is saving his life.

Escape to Relaxation
When your house is a mess, when your children need rides to activities, your spouse had a rough week and needs a shoulder to lean on, the dogs needs their vet appointments, and make sure you fit in your dentist appointment you have not had for a year, and oh yes, bills are due and the fridge has mice coming out desperate for food- on top of that, if you have a child that needs a little extra attention, make sure you spend time, maybe ensure therapies needed, relaxation time and special parent kiddo time, while keeping up at work- WOW- what are these mortals doing to themselves???
