Dreamcatcher Workshop
2024-08-24 10:30 - 14:00
Join us in welcoming Eric G Martin as he walks you through the history, meaning, and process of making a beautiful dreamcatcher of your own.

“As the legend goes, the Dream Catcher was used by the Woodland Indians and was hung in the Lodge. Its use was to catch all dreams good or bad. The bad dreams would get caught up in the webbing and be held there till first morning light, then burned off. Now, the good dreams were caught and knowing their way to the hole in the center, would filter down into the feathers and be held there, only to return another night to be dreamed.”

Eric G. Martin is a North American Native of the Mohawk and Chippewa tribes of Six Nations Reserve, near Brantford, Ontario, Canada.
His Native name is Gwiish Koshi Nodinin (Whispering Windz) member of the Bear Clan.
He is a self-taught artist who began stone carving in 1996, creating stone sculptures from soapstone, marble, alabaster, gypsum and limestone. He also works with antlers, bone, wood, metals, precious and semiprecious stone, and sometimes ice!
His work includes pipe making and ink printing.

Eric’s art can be found in private and public collections world-wide; most notably he has a carving in Mt. Sinai Hospital in Toronto in their public, permanent viewing collection. He also has a wampum belt in the Harbor Village Museum Collection in Grove, Oklahoma. His work can be found on the cover page design of Native Foods the Native Way book for the Ontario Agri-Food Education and Indian Agricultural Program of Ontario. The Six Nations Post Office uses a cancellation stamp of a Tree of Peace, which he designed.

Horses are excellent partners to help us be in the moment as they are naturally aware and encourage thoughtful participation.
Cultivate and improve your self- regulation by joining our mindfulness with horses classes.

Group Reiki
2024-08-25 10:30 - 11:30
Horses intuitively recognize blocks in our physical bodies and auric fields. They can help move the energy, releasing repressed emotions and old patterns. They are considered symbols of the attainment of wealth and high rank, and in many ancient cultures, horses were gifted to emperors and kings because they are symbols of triumph and success.

Spirit of Teens
2024-09-19 18:30 - 20:30
Our young people are capable of incredible things! (Age 12-16)

An empowered young person recognizes their capabilities, self-determination and worth. They feel comfortable trying new things and they have the confidence to take risks. They are aware that failure is a step toward progress, and not a sign to give up. They don’t use the opinions of others as their guideposts in life, and they stand up for their values. They know they have built a solid foundation to rely on in times of struggle or when they are feeling lost and need to re-centre.

Join us Wednesday evenings from 6:30-8:30 September 19- October 17 where we will be developing skills such as decision making, problem solving and communication.

Week 1- We focus on building confidence, relationships, and teamwork.
Week 2- We focus on communication, trust, and appropriate boundary setting.
Week 3- We focus on problem solving and negotiation
Week 4- We focus on decision making, mindfulness, and self-management
Week 5- We focus on leadership

At completion of week 5, we will celebrate the group with pizza and certificates of achievement.
