2023 Session Workshops

This year we hope to reach out to our community and make an impact. We want to create spaces and opportunities for healing, reflection and growth, and we want to offer this for all ages! We do not have a “home base” yet, so in 2023 we need your help to bring our program straight to you! We want to offer pop-up sessions for schools, ranches, and other groups that want to participate. Just like our sessions, these workshops and group sessions are always free in order to be accessible to everyone. 

So what will this look like?
Who: Horses in the community who are in need

• Horses with Depression and Anxiety
  
• Horses who have experienced Trauma
• Horses who have behavioral concerns
  • These horses can be at a ranch, rescue, or personally owned.

What: Pop-Up Sessions and Workshops for ALL AGES

• Personal Growth
• Boundary and Communication Development
• A Space to be at Peace and Rest
  
• Reflection and Healing from Past and Current Pain
  
• Practical Tools for Dealing with Stressors
  
• Customized to each specific Group, taking into mind age and situation
  

Where: Hosted at Local Ranches, Schools, and other Locations

• We can offer group sessions out of local ranches for people who have a horse that is in need of this program. (We help the horse find confidence and peace while teaching him practical skills he may need)
  
• Workshops can be set up for locations without an Equine present using a Presentation and Discussion Format. (Worksheets may be used in these cases)
  
• We are open to ideas for other session needs and opportunities.

Do you have a horse you think could benefit from these Workshop Sessions?

These workshop sessions will be an abridged version of our full session program. These stand-alone sessions will focus on one or two skills that we work through with the session horses and clients. Some skills include but are not limited to:

• Grooming
• Circling
• Round Pen free-lunging
• Confidence Building
• Patience + Trust

These sessions do not take the place of regular care but they can be helpful to create space for a horse to learn at an easy pace. We prioritize the release and taking time after each step for the horse to process and build confidence. This can be beneficial for all horses and our program focuses on horses needing extra support due to their past or present circumstances. A horse can be volunteered for a workshop session once or more regularly.

In the future this will look like year-long fosters and working with rescue horses when we have our own location! The goal is to equip the horse to thrive in their home and feel valued and safe. Horses from our program can then get adopted into forever homes, go back to their owners, or go on to help in other Horse Assisted Programs.
