-- Introducing Dreamwinds' Groundbreaking Leadership and Team Building Programs in Tryon

Dreamwinds is proud to announce the launch of its innovative leadership and team-building programs in Tryon, North Carolina. By harnessing the power of horses, Dreamwinds offers companies, sports teams, and organizations a refreshing alternative to traditional training methods. Through hands-on experiences, participants can enhance leadership skills, improve team dynamics, and foster personal growth—no prior horse experience necessary.

Founded by Tracey Evans, a former corporate executive with an MBA and over 20 years of business experience, Dreamwinds has dedicated over a decade to developing programs that combine real-world learning opportunities with unique, transformative activities. These programs enable participants to gain a deeper understanding of their leadership styles, communication strategies, and behaviors, leading to both personal and professional growth.

“We are thrilled to introduce our programs to Tryon, where our stunning natural setting complements the authentic and honest feedback that participants receive from our horses through these activities,” said Tracey Evans, Founder of Dreamwinds. “Our programs are unlike any in the world. Horses provide honest, immediate feedback that forces reflection and self-improvement in ways no traditional classroom ever could.”

A Powerful Alternative to Traditional Leadership Development

At the heart of Dreamwinds’ leadership and team-building programs is the belief that horses, as non-judgmental beings, provide an unparalleled opportunity for personal and professional growth. Through ground-based activities—where no riding is involved—participants engage with horses in exercises designed to foster authentic leadership, teamwork, and self-awareness.

“Discovering that horses demand the type of leadership that I had always aspired to is what led me to focus on leadership development through horses when I transitioned from my corporate career. They teach you about the impact of your energy, your communication, and your presence—all the things that influence your effectiveness as a leader,” explains Tracey Evans. “The horse’s feedback is instant, honest, and impossible to ignore—making them some of the most effective leadership coaches you’ll ever meet.”

Experienced, Certified Facilitators: Dreamwinds is led by Tracey Evans, a former corporate executive with an MBA, who brings 20 years of corporate experience to every program. This practical knowledge allows facilitators to connect the horse interactions directly to real-world leadership challenges.
