The invitation

Come teach with us, not at them.

The Mini isn't our big Gathering, you won't see marquees, shopping villages or a stage here. It's small on purpose, fifty cowgirls split into groups of ten, working close with five women who actually do this for a living. Educators are central to the week, we're not just booking instructors, we're building a team of women who'll share the fire, the meals, the long afternoon arena rides, and the quiet wins that come from teaching properly.

You set the rhythm of your sessions, we'll handle everything around them. Bring your craft, bring your stories, bring the version of you that loves teaching when nobody's filming it.
