What is Equine - Assisted Coaching and learning?
Horses Have Super Powers
Equine-Assisted coaching is a unique and effective form of therapeutic learning, relying on the exchange of somatic energy that occurs in each of our everyday interactions and relationships. This is done when we understand the role between our brain and nervous system, and then we add a horse to the equation. When we are partnered with a horse, the horse will instinctively respond to our energetic patterns and signals of fear, conflict, frustration, stress, anxiety or our inability to connect to ourselves or others. Our facilitators are trained to understand what the horse's reactions may mean and offer explanations and feedback to the client. This real-time exchange of information aids our clients in understanding how their thoughts, feelings, and actions can impact their relationship to themselves and the world around them.
