Equine Assisted Learning (EAL)

Equine Assisted Learning (EAL) is a professional approach that includes horses in experiential learning exercises. Facilitators observe non-verbal communication between horses and their team members (you), to encourage the attainable outcomes.

This hands on learning approach is proven to encourage understanding of learned skills.

The EQUILUTION Equine Assisted Learning Program consists of a curriculum that drives objectives to outcomes. Each exercise is designed in a building Block (TM) style, where the horse becomes the teacher and a guide. The curriculum is client centred, using horses and facilitators to encourage self reflection, and development.

While EAL has the ability to take an individual through a powerful journey of learning. The learning can't be obtained without the horses.

Why Horses?

Horses have a sensitive nature, exceptional awareness of their surroundings, and the ability to recognize the difference between calm and non-threatening approaches. What makes them great teachers is their ability to distinguish between nervous and anxious energies.

In their natural environment, strong leadership within the herd guarantees survival. Working together with teams, horses look for this leader; someone who is compassionate, clear, and confident - the same type of leader that people seek out.

Utilizing these same leadership principles, we can help groups use the natural instincts and energy of horses through carefully designed team building and leadership exercises.
