Life Skills Sessions

Arm yourself, your children or a loved one with the skills required to navigate life and tackle any challenges that life may throw at them.

Each session, the participant/s will work with a herd member in a fun and safe setting, to develop a life skill. Towards the end of the session, we will take some time to reflect on what was learnt and how we could apply that learning in our day-to-day life. Journaling at the end of the session is recommended ('What my horse taught me today' Journal is supplied).

For example: For a session focusing on 'Respect & Boundaries', we would likely work with herd member, Tilly. Tilly in particular is very expressive with her body language and is good at setting boundaries (safely) with where she doesn't like to be touched. Learn how to listen and respect those boundaries and you will have a friend for life. Additionally, we may spend some time learning how to create a bubble of personal space (boundary) with our horse, and observe how the horse respects the boundary that we have set. To recap, we would discuss what boundaries/respect may look like in everyday life, e.g. whilst playing with our friends, what setting clear boundaries (like Tilly did) may look like and how important it is to respect other people's boundaries. 

Sessions run weekly or fortnightly (no ongoing commitment required for one-on-one sessions). 

No previous horse experience is necessary / Sessions are unmounted (no riding).
