Ways to Engage with Intentional Horsemanship™
There’s no single path into Intentional Horsemanship™ and the Being Herd & Seen™ Program— and no expectation that everyone starts in the same place. Some people want a gentle introduction, others are ready to dive into hands‑on learning, and some are looking for deeper, more personalized support. The options below are designed to meet you where you are, whether you’re just getting oriented or ready to explore specific challenges in more depth. You can begin with a free introduction, join a group experience, or work one‑on‑one, and let your next step unfold from there.
-Free Introductory Meetings
Hello Meeting- free 1:1 consultation
A Hello Meeting is a brief complimentary introductory conversation for people who are curious about Intentional Horsemanship™ and the Being Herd & Seen™ Program and want to know where to begin.
Intro Presentation- free
An Intro Meeting is a more focused introduction to the work of Intentional Horsemanship™ and the Being Herd & Seen™ Program. This free group session gives clients a beginning understanding of Intentional Horsemanship, the Equine Mandala, Horse Speak®, and the importance of connection, clarity, and nervous system awareness.
-Working Session Experiences
Guided Working Sessions are available in three formats: at the Client’s Barn, Online by Zoom, or In-Person at BentWire Ranch using Lucinda’s horses.
Guided Working Session- at Your Barn
This Guided Working Session is a 2-hour individual session with LucindaB at the client’s barn or horse facility. This is a hands-on, real-time learning experience with the client and their horse.
During this session, Lucinda observes the horse-human interaction, helps interpret what the horse is presenting, and offers practical guidance for building clarity, connection, and trust. Guided working sessions are scheduled directly by appointment and are also available in series packages of 4 or 6 sessions for clients who want ongoing support over time.
Guided Working Session- by Zoom
A Zoom Lesson is a 90-minute individual session. It gives clients direct access to LucindaB’s teaching and interpretation without requiring travel.
Lucinda uses her extensive video library of horse behavior to illustrate the concepts of Intentional Horsemanship™. Clients can also discuss their own horse, present their own videos, ask questions, and learn how to better recognize what horses are presenting through posture, movement, attention, and nervous system state. Zoom Lessons are scheduled directly by appointment.
Guided Working Session- at BentWire Ranch
This session is held at BentWire Ranch in Post, OR. Clients will have two distinct experiences.
-
You will work directly with LucindaB on Being Herd & Seen for part of the time with horses you have never met.
-
You will also be able to experience of being in the middle of a well-adjusted herd of 15 or more horses. This is a powerful experience.
Clients learn the science and get the opportunity to feel the HeartSpace Experience as well.
HeartSpace: Come and synchronize your heartbeat with our horses.
Packages / Mixed Session Series
Packages and Session Series are structured options for clients who want ongoing support over time. These may include a series of Working Sessions at your barn, at BentWire Ranch, Zoom Sessions, or a combination of all three. A discount is offered for multiple paid sessions. Available in 4- and 6-Session Packages.
-Scheduled Learning Experiences
Workshops
A Workshop is typically a half-day group educational event, usually lasting about 3 hours. It introduces the core concepts of Intentional Horsemanship™ and Being Herd & Seen™, including equine neuroscience, ethology, learning, memory, emotion, and Horse Speak®.
Workshops are generally more presentation-based than hands-on, and may include discussion, video examples, demonstrations, and simple exercises. Workshops are scheduled well in advance, so clients have time to plan, register, and make arrangements. New dates will be added periodically, so visitors are encouraged to check the website often for upcoming listings. New workshop dates will be posted on the Events Calendar as they become available.

Retreats
A Retreat is a scheduled 1- to 3-day immersive group experience at our rural property in the Juniper forests of the Maury Mountains in Crook County. Participants come to us and spend time learning, observing, and communing with horses in a quiet, natural setting.
HeartSpace is a term that describes the physiologic bonding/synchronizing experience those who spend unhurried time with horses. It's a type of meditation, a relaxing journey into connectedness. Retreats offer the time to really immerse yourself in HeartSpace.
Retreats offer a deeper opportunity to step away from daily distractions and experience the principles of Intentional Horsemanship™ and Being Herd & Seen™ in the presence of a living herd. Accommodations may include dry camping, RV parking, or a small apartment on the property. Retreats are scheduled well in advance, so clients have time to plan their visit and make travel arrangements.
