I had no expectations as I had never been. My mind was blown on the professional but fun way the retreat was run. The accommodations were awesome while the learning was great. I had so many ahh ha moments and was on cloud nine most of the retreat. I was so impressed that I am returning for the cattle retreat. I highly recommend this program. My husband, who is a non horse person, said he actually learned a lot and if he was ever to get on a horse, he would do it under Micheal’s supervision. The money was so well spent. You will not regret going!!!!
