Equine Education
Equine Education sets out to define and develop that connection between humans and horses. By combining hands-on exercises with practical, safety-focused lessons, the path to horse companionship is established. A relationship becomes an enriched, heart-centred experience for both the human and the horse.
We realized that Equine Education more than educating humans about being a companion to a horse. It is the opportunity to discover one`s self and enhancing unknown - or long-withheld - capabilities. There is something authentic in being fully present and grounded in the presence of a 1200 lb mammal with a mind of its own. Experience the energetic connection between human and horse that honours the centuries-old bond between us.
Throughout
the four-part session, safety is braided into each segment to provide a
grounded foundation for both the companion and the horse.
This 4-week, 6-hour per week training session covers:
Meeting in the Middle - Beginning

- how to approach a horse
- be able to halter and lead

Words from the heart...
Through Equine Education I felt - and saw -what I was missing: a real partnership and connection, mutual respect, trust and companionship. I learned what it means to be in the moment, fully aware of my environment, senses and feelings. The hands-on experience, along with the skilled information sharing and trainings sessions was perfect, and led to a deeper and more meaningful relationship with the horse.
