Most learning and development workshops  of this type run $3,500+. We’ve intentionally designed this one to be more accessible: between $700–$1,800 plus travel depending on your lodging choice. You are getting very high quality coaching at a lower cost so that we can make this accessible to everybody. Investment increases if you are being sponsored by a corporation. 

All facilitation, alignment assessment, workbook,  activities, snacks and refreshments. 

Accommodations, travel to Ghost Ranch and optional extras like spa visit and treatments. . While meals are included in your accommodations, you can choose to skip dinner at the ranch if you’d like to dine out instead at your expense.

Think of this as more than “time away.” You’ll leave with:

• Rest and rejuvenation in a stunning high-desert setting
  
• Space to reflect, breathe, and reconnect with what matters most (alignment)
   
• Simple, supportive practices you can take back into daily life
   
• An intimate circle of peers who “get it,” and a chance to feel more connected

Dress code: Casual and comfortable is the vibe — think clothes you can breathe in. It’s New Mexico, so if you’ve got cowgirl/boy boots, this is the place to show them off! Pack layers for cool, windy, and hot weather. The high desert likes to keep us guessing.

If you do Yoga: Pack easy, comfortable yoga clothes.

If you are going to Ojo Caliente Hot Springs: Bring a bathing suit, flip flops, and a bathrobe. (If you’d rather travel light, you can rent a robe and slippers at the springs for $20)

Ranch Accommodations: Rooms are simple and cozy — no alarm clock, one bar of soap, and no hair dryer. Linens and towels are provided.

Recommended Items (It’s a little like camp!)

• Small shampoo/conditioner, soap
• Hair dryer (if you like — many of us let our hair air-dry in the desert air)
• Bug repellent
• Small backpack
• Water bottle
• Hat, sunglasses, sunscreen
• Hiking shoes and/or running shoes
• Your everyday basics (pajamas, toothbrush, socks, underwear, etc.)
• Cowboy/girl boots if you want to go dancing in Santa Fe or horseback riding (totally optional, but fun!)

✨ Bring whatever else helps you feel relaxed and at ease.

Weather is usually sunny and we are high in altitude so bring layers, a hat, sunglasses and sunscreen. It means that it can go from being warm to cold very quickly in the high desert. Check the weather before you leave.

Also, the altitude at Ghost Ranch is 7541 ft / 2298 m.  Be sure to learn about the impacts of high altitude and be ready to accept the risks. Basically you need to drink a lot of water and pay attention to yourself if you feel tired. 

The Ranch cafeteria always offers vegetarian options, though fully vegan meals can be more limited. When you book your room, you’ll be asked if you’d like meals included. There’s also a small kitchen available for our group, with a refrigerator where you can store any food you bring.

When reserving your accommodations, you can let them know if you prefer not to have cafeteria meals included, so you won’t be charged. Or you can mix and match — enjoy some meals from the cafeteria and prepare others yourself. There’s plenty of flexibility.

You can rent a car, it's approximately 2 hours 30 minutes to Abiquiu. If enough of you are flying in from another city we can look into carpooling from the airport. We won't know this until we know who is attending the workshop.  

If you are coming from Albuquerque as a local and are willing to carpool, do let us know so that we can coordinate.  

If you are coming from Santa Fe and you don't have a car/don't want to drive, there is information on the ghostranch.org website about White Buffalo Shuttle which picks you up at the Sage Inn in Santa Fe. Their phone number is 831.359.8077 or you can email them at nivek@cruzio.com. Otherwise another option is Groometransportation.com and their phone number is 505.474.5696. Lion's Tooth Leadership has no affiliation with these transportation services. 

Yes, It’s spotty so plan on a digital detox somewhat.   Wi-Fi is offered in several areas of the Ranch, including the Welcome Center, Library and Dining Hall.

Yes, the studio tour is an option if tickets are available.  Ghost Ranch is where O’Keefe originally stayed when she first arrived in the West and then later she built her home in Abiquiu. They are two separate but related locations. So there is time on Saturday afternoon to visit her home studio and we suggest that you reserve months in advance, so be sure to plan accordingly. 

We’ll have basic first-aid supplies on hand, but please plan ahead — bring all of your personal medications and let someone you trust know where they are. If you’d like, you can also share your emergency contact information with a member of the  team.

There will be no live medical staff on site. In the event of serious illness or urgent medical needs, the nearest facilities are:

• Las Clínicas del Norte – Abiquiu Clinic
  Local primary and preventive care services located in Abiquiu. Open weekdays.
• Espanola Hospital
  A full-service hospital in Española (about 1.5 hours away). Ideal for urgent or emergency needs.
• CHRISTUS St. Vincent Regional Medical Center, Santa Fe
  A larger hospital with 24/7 emergency services, including a Level III trauma center. About 1.5 hours from the location.

✨ Being prepared with your own medications and an emergency contact ensures you can fully relax and enjoy your time here.

🐾 Pets: Sorry, no pets are allowed.

👨‍👩‍👧 Family & Friends: You do have two options if you’d like to bring a spouse, partner, or child:

1. Registered Participants – If they register, they’ll fully join the experience, including workshops and activities.
2. Non-Participants – They can stay at the Ranch and enjoy their own time during the day, then reconnect with you in the evenings. Please note: only registered participants can join workshops, circles, and activities.

This way you get to choose what works best for you and your family.

Yes — all are welcome here. This workshop is for anyone who feels called to rest, reconnect, and explore in community. We are committed to creating a safe and supportive space, and we will not tolerate discrimination of any kind.

Our opening ceremony starts promptly at 4:00 pm so plan to arrive by 3:00 at the latest so that you can get settled. 

Email leah@lionstoothleadership.com and we'll get back to you within two business days.
