What is Equine Assisted Learning?
Equine-assisted learning is an innovative approach that utilises interactions with horses to facilitate personal growth and learning. In this transformative practice, individuals engage in guided activities with horses, fostering self-awareness, emotional regulation, and effective communication skills. The principal benefits of equine-assisted learning include enhanced self-confidence, improved leadership abilities, stress reduction, and increased emotional well-being. Through the profound connection and wisdom gained from working with horses, participants discover valuable insights about themselves, fostering personal growth, and empowerment
