A Horse Lover’s Dream Getaway in Costa Rica 🌿
All Inclusive Retreat
June 23rd - 28th, 2026
Experience the Transformational Power of Liberty Horsemanship
Join us in Costa Rica for an unforgettable retreat where horses help you rediscover presence, trust, connection, and communication in a completely new way.
Create a Deeper Connection With Your Horse Through Liberty Training
Experience what becomes possible when your horse chooses to be with you because of the bond you have created together.
In this retreat, you will learn the foundational principles of liberty training from the very beginning, including the natural communication patterns and connection rituals horses use with one another in the herd.
As trust deepens, resistance softens, and a new level of partnership begins to emerge.
Meet Your Retreat Host and Instructor
Nancy Zintsmaster is Co-Owner of Carolyn Resnick Liberty Horsemanship, Master Trainer and Certified Instructor in The Waterhole Rituals method of Liberty Training and LHEAP (Liberty Horsemanship for Equine Assisted Professionals)
Join me for an unforgettable Liberty Training and Equine Wellness Retreat in the breathtaking beauty of Costa Rica.
This immersive experience is designed for horse lovers, equine assisted professionals, helping practitioners, and anyone longing to slow down, reconnect, and experience a deeper way of relating to horses and themselves.
Immerse Yourself In Nature With Horses On This Beautiful, Tropical Rainforest Getaway
This clinic offers you a great opportunity to learn how to relate to horses in an entirely new way!
We will be focused on learning the “Language of Horses” through a proven communication system that horses use to communicate with each other. This tried and true method will help you to improve your leadership skills and build your confidence and connection with horses so that your horse will want to connect with you based on the bond that you share together, rather than the tack or training!
Whether a beginner or advanced student of the horse, this clinic will have something for you and will help you to improve your horsemanship skills at Liberty!

What Our Guests Are Saying
Jane L.
An Unforgettable Retreat for Learning and Renewal…
My retreat at Nan’s was the perfect blend of learning and relaxation. The horses offered a unique, lifelong learning experience, and the guest house was 5-star quality with breathtaking views, peaceful hikes, and fresh local produce. I also enjoyed a Reiki massage by Dani, and I’m still feeling the benefits a month later. I highly recommend it! “ — Jane L.
