How our programs help
Therapeutic activities with horses can reduce symptoms of anxiety and stress and have been shown to lower blood pressure and heart rate. Equine facilitated learning can support social and emotional wellbeing, emotional awareness, and practical life skills. EFL sessions teach competencies that can improve quality of life such as trust, connection, self-regulation, and self-confidence. Structured activities can be tailored to suit individual requirements.

How our programs help
The majority of sessions involve interacting with the horse from the ground and although riding is a possibility, most people will experience EFL and its many benefits in this way. EFL promotes strategies to attain healthier relationships that in turn can improve wider group and family dynamics. EFL sessions bring together horses and people in a safe, supervised space designed to elicit positive and empowering interaction.
Our programs are designed around experiential learning, which makes learning fun. Our aim to provide a program that benefits the individual.
