Saddle Up & Slow Down Retreat

A weekend nervous system reset through horses, somatic practice & movement, and nature immersion

August 27th-30th in Durango, Colorado

Out where the mountains stretch wide and the stars feel close enough to touch, we gather.

Saddle Up & Slow Down is a ranch retreat in beautiful Durango. Through a weekend of intentional yoga and somatic practices, we’ll gently unwind the layers of tension we carry. Through trail rides and time outdoors, we’ll rediscover the steady, grounding rhythm of the land. Through shared meals and unhurried evenings, we’ll remember what it feels like to simply BE.

This is your invitation to trade urgency for presence. To saddle up for adventure. And slow down enough to feel it all.

Previous Retreats

“My time in Morocco was truly magical- more than a retreat, it was a journey inward, a soft unraveling, and a chance to return to myself. I leave with a peaceful heart, a renewed sense of clarity, and a constellation of memories I’ll carry with me always. What I discovered there will guide me forward, and what I released will stay behind with gratitude. Your intention, your presence, and the care woven into every detail made all the difference. I’m returning home feeling rested, restored, and ready for the next chapter of my life.”

Meet Cassandra, Retreat Host

Your retreat is lovingly guided by Cassandra; an empathetic soul, deep feeler, creator, healer, entrepreneur, and kind heart. Cassandra resides in the beautiful valley of Durango Colorado, where she offers The Hol Experience- a private practice centered around integrating Somatic Healing, Massage Therapy, and Nutrition Counseling.

Cassandra’s soul mission began at a young age, battling chronic illness and finding healing through the discovery of holistic health, lifestyle experience, and self-regulation. This life-long journey is the root of her passion and devotion in guiding others toward finding embodied healing through their own holistic experiences.

As an experienced retreat host, Cassandra is known for her grounded, nurturing presence and her natural ability to hold safe, compassionate space—inviting others to slow down, listen inward, and reconnect with their truest self through mindful touch, movement, breathwork, and awareness.

With multiple retreats both in the U.S. and Morocco, she thoughtfully curates each experience to blend restoration, cultural immersion, and soulful connection, offering women a space to feel supported, seen, and deeply nourished.

She welcomes you in as her family and she is excited to guide you on a journey inward while encouraging the embrace of the outside beauty that surrounds you.
