Individual Skills Development

Life Skills Development

Uniquely designed equine-assisted program to develop customized learning experiences that focus on enhancing specific skills in participants. Participants are offered the opportunity to work through the program while learning about themselves, their abilities to form relationships and how to contribute to a team.

If we, as facilitators, are willing to listen, the horses can assist us with guiding groups to becoming better individuals.

By including horses in specially designed educational experiences, equine-assisted specialists have greatly multiplied the participant’s rate of success to self-discovery. Horses can’t over think a participant’s motive, nor can they manipulate behaviour. But by their intuitive nature and innate sensitivity, horses can provide facilitators with a window into the participant’s personality. As facilitators listen to a horse’s non-verbal communication, together, they have the ability to walk participants through to finding life-altering change.

We believe in taking a pro-active role along with innovative strategies to better prepare the youth of today. We choose to empower our youth with skills and abilities to conquer the negative influences that surround them. It is our goal to offer each participant the opportunity to work with and learn from the horses... a dream come true for many!

This program enhances life-skills by focusing on peer pressure, effective communication, problem solving, conflict resolution and other social needs. It also explores alternatives to choosing negative consequences, activities or behaviours.
