Welcome

We create experiences that discover strengths.

Experiential learning fosters growth through connections to self, each other and place. Please explore our programs and services and reach out if you would like more information.

Outdoor Education

Momenta offers year-round outdoor education and leadership programs in Winnipeg and throughout Manitoba. Programs focus on connecting and building relationships through nature exploration, canoeing, biking and hiking. As participants develop outdoor technical skills, they also develop the pro-social skills, communication and interpersonal skills necessary to overcome challenges within a group and learn about themselves, others, and place.

Schools

Forest and Nature School


Forest and Nature School programs are designed to connect children to nature. The curriculum is developed by observing children’s play. When themes emerge, we use inquiry-based learning to build knowledge or solutions. Children are encouraged to interact with nature with all their senses, develop socially, build curiosities about the world, find calm, be physically active, be stewards of the land, and be in nature in safe and age-appropriate ways.

Professional Development


Momenta has been listening, learning and leading since 2006. We offer professional development to share our expertise. We provide workshops and keynotes for professionals working with youth across Canada. Our models and strategies are created from research in social work, youth development, experiential education, and adventure therapy and tested in the field at our programs.

A few weeks ago we led the annual Mac Trek canoe program in honour of Mac 💕 a young man who showed immense compassion and shared a positive attitude with everyone he met.  With gratitude to Mac’s family and partner @voicesmyicn for the love and commitment to this program. 10 paddlers hit the water 💦 this year and witnessed these beautiful skies.  📍Treaty 1
