An Immersive Equestrian Retreat with Tik Maynard

December 3–6, 2026 · TerraNova Equestrian Center · Myakka City, Florida

Join professional trainer Tik Maynard for a thoughtfully curated equestrian retreat designed to deepen your horsemanship, expand your understanding of your horse and create space for meaningful connection.

More than a traditional clinic, this experience brings together exceptional horsemanship instruction, learning, wellness and time spent in nature. It is an opportunity to step away from the pace of everyday life and immerse yourself in what matters most: your horse, your learning and the partnership between you.

A Different Kind of Equestrian Experience

Throughout the retreat, Tik will lead participants through a range of foundational horsemanship experiences, with a focus on thoughtful communication, learning theory and developing confidence in both horse and rider.

The intimate format allows for private and small-group instruction, creating an environment where participants can engage deeply with the material and focus on their individual goals.
