FAQs

 

Do we ride the horses?

No. All of our activities are non-mounted. The horses are a part of your team and you will work along side them to connect with a new style of communication. This way the horse can be her true self and you can be your true self.

Is Equine Assisted Learning (EAL) therapy?

Equine Assisted Learning is not equine therapy and does not require a clinical professional to be present during the exercises and programs.  While EAL can have a powerful impact on wellbeing, it focus’ on heightened self-awareness and practical application in the real world.

What clothing should I wear?

For safety, simple things like closed toe shoes. Also, dress in clothes suitable for the outside temperature and that you are ok if it gets a little dusty or dirty.

 
 

Do I need experience with horses?

Not at all. This program does not require any prior experience with horses. We always put safety first and each program begins with anorientation that includes safety and interpreting the many ways horses communicate.

I’m allergic

Knowing in advance that you are allergic is is half the battle! Just be sure to take an allergy pill before you come. 

 

What if it rains or is cold outside?

We understand the need for a comfortable environment. Fortunately, our programs are held in a large open-space 40,000 s.f. indoor arena; making it optimal in the summer or winter. While we are not exposed to wind or rain, the arena is not heated, so if it is very cold you should dress for warmth.
