Equine Assisted Learning (EAL) is a unique approach to experiential learning that offers clients safe and engaging experiences with horses for the purpose of social-emotional learning, personal development, and professional development skills like leadership and team building. The interactions with horses can provide a powerful mirror for clients to recognise patterns and behaviours, and develop skills to create positive change in their lives.
The popularity of EAL is growing rapidly across Australia and internationally, as more people recognize its benefits for personal and professional development. It is particularly beneficial for National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) clients, as well as children and adolescents, who can benefit greatly from the unique and experiential approach to learning.
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.
In EAL, clients are offered ‘safe’ (physically and emotionally) experiences with horses for the purpose of exploring self-experience in relationships, building self-awareness, building awareness of patterns or habits that are no longer serving clients well, developing social and emotional skills, and addressing learning goals clients have identified.
