Equine Assisted Learning (EAL) is a unique, learner-centred experience that partners people with horses to promote personal and team development.
This dynamic approach helps participants gain essential life skills through engaging, goal-oriented activities, all within a fun and exciting environment.
The program we follow focuses on a structured curriculum designed to build key life skills through positive hands-on interactions with horses. Each exercise is carefully crafted to boost self-confidence and encourage personal growth through validated, real-world experiences.
What is EAL?
Why Horses?
-
Horses are honest, offering immediate and genuine feedback in response to their environment.
-
Horses don't judge and are constantly assessing the world around them.

Learning to understand their reactions can be incredibly insightful and often sparks personal transformation.

Horses don't dwell on our intentions, but they do challenge our behaviours and leadership, providing powerful opportunity for growth.
