EQUINE ASSISTED LEARNING
With the use of our horses, we offer programs that are fully adaptable to your needs. These Workshops have tremendous value. This is hands-down the closest you can get to 1-on-1 facilitation. Integrating the experiential arena programs, classroom time, horses as teachers and the dynamic course materials, these custom tailored workshops promise outstanding results.
Why Horses?
A horse’s entire perception of a person is based on behaviour. Words, looks, background, are things that are not important to a horse. They only react to a person’s body language, methods of coping, and approach. Working with horses brings awareness to where shifts might need to happen in life, they create a mirror for us. The nature of the horse and its ability to experience a wide range of human emotions creates an instant horse/human connection and the opportunity for life-changing metaphor.
Horses provide instant non judgemental feedback, and can usually get to the heart of the matter within minutes! It's simply one of the best way to accomplish deep, transformative change.
