What is Equine Assisted Learning ?
“There is something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a man.”
Sir Winston Churchill
By including horses in specially-designed experiential learning exercises, facilitators are able to observe non-verbal communication of the horses and participants as well as assist in guiding the experience to encourage the learner to attain the outcome of each exercise. This hands on curriculum to learning has been proven to greatly multiply the participants retention and understanding of skills learned.
Our programming consisting of a curriculum that drives objectives to desired outcomes. Each exercise is experiential and designed in a Building Block style, focusing on one objective at a time. The focal point of each sessions' curriculum develops life skills in a fun and exciting environment with a horse !
Working with our horses, you will develop horsemanship skills and work thought a variety of fun challenges. Horses have a way of teaching us without it seeming like a drudge, they help teach us to relax, trust, lead with confidence, improve communication skills and act with humbleness and humility, to name just few of the benefits of being around horses.
