“Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning
to find out that going to the mountains is going home;

Equine-Assisted Learning

"Horses carry the wisdom of healing in their hearts and offer it to any humans who possess the humility to listen".
Unknown Author


Our sessions with the horses can take place in the open space of the pasture, or from the comfort of a chair outside of the fence, where we engage in conversation while observing and interacting with the horses. No horse experience is needed. Just being in their presence is enough to experience their profound lessons.
