EquiSpirit’s Horse-Sense
program is an equine facilitated experience that partners individuals with horses on a journey of self discovery and personal growth. As a result of working with horses in this type of environment, individuals will learn to exchange fear with confidence, aggression with assertiveness, and learn patience instead of intolerance. Under the guidance of our professional instructors we use proven interactive techniques with our horses to promote social, emotional, and spiritual growth.

Just like all of us horses feel anger, fear, grief, relaxation, happiness and affection. In their herds they play, fight, communicate and develop relationships with each other. Their communication is straight forward and clear. The language they speak is not easily understood, but by studying it, you learn about yourself.
