Our Philosophy

Transcending and aiming for a life of abundance with the help of horses.

Retreats with Horses follows the principle that if a horse is given the freedom to live the life intended he will transfer this sense of wellbeing and balance to his riders.

Our herd of rescue horses is free to roam 16 hours a day in open paddocks and corrals. They mingle with each other freely day and night. Each day they carry our visitors to the sea and swim across the bay free from the restrictions of bridle or saddle. They thoroughly enjoy the experience with their rider while they are maintaining their lustrous coats and powerful bodies! Because they are free to be without stress or anxiety, these horses have a heightened insight into their rider and are able to create a full partnership. The horse will help the rider to find balance in body, mind and spirit and the union is one of freedom and harmony, unlike any other experience.

Retreats with Horses supports the Healing with Horses Foundation. Differently abled children and adults receive free Equine Natural Therapy as well as art and music classes. Healing with Horses creates an integrated, inspiring space for differently abled children and adults, where they are embraced, empowered to realize their full potential through therapeutic interactions.

Veronika Danzer-La Fortune and Lennon La Fortune are the owners of Retreats with Horses. Born in Germany, Veronika has worked and cared for horses on different continents. Lennon is Trinidadian and a true horseman. He is passionate and caring about the herd and people. In 2006 Veronika followed her heart and moved with her husband to Tobago, sharing their dream of guiding and empowering individuals with the help of these majestic horses. In 2007 they created Being-with-Horses and are also founders of the Non-Profit Organisation Healing-with-Horses (2010).
