Equine-Facilitated Learning
The Opportunity to Change your Life

An encounter with horses is an encounter with oneself.
Equine-facilitated coaching allows you to
reflect upon your behaviour in new ways and to gain clarity for your next steps.
These are the steps that lead to transformation.

Horses as Co-Trainers

What makes horses as highly-sensitive co-trainers so unique?

    1. Horses live in the present moment, so their focus is always in the now. So we need to do the same, if we are to establish a real connection with them.
    2. Horses provide high-quality feedback – direct, honest and without judgment. If you can apply their feedback, then you prevent problems from piling up.
      You always focus on the relevant topics in the relationship and remain open and ready to make changes.
    3. The masterful nonverbal communication of horses teaches you to communicate more consciously.Imagine how much more effective you would be, if 85 % your communication was conscious, instead of unconscious.

The horse-human relationship is a magical connection.
