Why Horses
Horses are beautiful, intelligent, sensitive, and strong beings who can evoke strong feelings in clients or engage clients in the learning process.
Calm and healthy horses can assist in co-regulating a client's nervous system, can model healthy living and expression of feelings, as well as offering non-judgmental safety and trust.
Horses can offer unique bio feedback and hold clients in a way traditional learning environments cannot. The natural environment can also contribute positively to learning outcomes for clients.
