Welcome

Our Mission is to encourage and empower participants using horses to develop present-time awareness, conflict resolution, patience and self-identity. 

We designed a program that uses horsemanship skills, Equine Assisted Learning and riding.


CORE VALUES: 

  1. Sharing the love of Christ  
  2. Acceptance of self and others 
  3. Honesty and integrity 
  4. Patience/discipline/respect 
  5. Having fun 


Benefits of Riding Horses

  • Builds assertiveness/problem solving, develops empathy/compassion
  • Increases emotional awareness, understanding and stability
  • Enables people to pick up social cues
  • Teaches tolerance and patience
  • Encourages self-regard/self-respect, demands muscle flexibility and strength
  • Improves fine and gross motor skills including balance, endurance, coordination and body awareness
  • Reduces stress/anxiety


Animals create special relationships with humans, and this is especially true with horses. The nonverbal communication between a human and horse strengthens the emotional bond that is shared. Therefore, words aren’t needed for human and horse to be perfectly in tune with each other's emotions. The relationship between horse and human creates love and understanding that is often indescribable.
