Reretau Retreats organises Luxury retreats that help you reconnect with yourself through the magic of horses in beautiful settings.
The retreats are run by our founders and facilitators, Stephanie Scott and Susan Nienaber. Stephanie and Susan are both exceptional horse women, who focus on kind and empathetic experiences with horses. By blending their knowledge in the science of horsemanship, neurology, emotional regulation and personal growth, they create safe spaces for those who are looking for a way to relax and grow.
Stephanie Scott has spent her career embracing ethical horsemanship practices and coaching riders. After an eye opening experience in Bali, she has decided to leave her competitive horse riding and training career in order to create events that are more in align with her values. These days, her work is dedicated to helping individuals reconnect with themselves, their personal strengths, and building their confidence to pursue their personal goals with clarity and intention. She is passionate about the power of interpersonal connection, and in particular, the powerful changes that come about when women support other women.
Originally from the Netherlands, Susan Nienaber has spent the last 15 years looking for the kindest way to train horses. With a dedication to best practices, she loves making sure everything she does is backed by science. With an MSc in equine science (the science of horses) and as an International Coaching Federation Professional Certified Coach, she not only brings in a wealth of scientific knowledge, but also quality coaching to the Reretau retreats. With a passion for helping people connect with themselves and being able to live a life that aligns with their values, she is dedicated to help individuals find confidence by allowing them to step out of societal expectations and embrace their true selves.
