INTRO TO TRAIL RUNNING FOR WOMEN

Join Rachel at She Runs Outdoors for an empowering and practical trail running workshop designed specifically for women. Whether you're a beginner or transitioning from road running to trails, this workshop is perfect for you.

GATHER, REFLECT & CONNECT

Horses are deeply spiritual animals that can sense our thoughts and emotions, encouraging us to embrace our authentic selves. By connecting with them, we can escape daily stresses and foster mindfulness, allowing them to help bring balance to our hearts and minds.

In our workshop, you’ll engage in journaling, breathwork, and relaxation techniques while learning to connect with the horses. You can set personal intentions or simply let the experience unfold. The horses provide a non-judgmental space, perfect for seeking solace or enhancing your well-being. Join Elly and Gemma to discover the transformative power of this connection.

Location: Trekking Centre
Time: 11am to 1pm
Price: £45 per person
