4 horses eating in a pasture in front of a barn with a light colored metal roof.

Your child will:

  1. Practice reading in a unique environment, outside in a barn setting reading to horses. Yes there will be bugs, dust, and horse poop. :)  (15 minutes)

  2. Learn emotional regulation techniques based on the science of Yoga Nidra. (5 minutes)

  3. Engage in a short Yoga Nidra for Kids session. (8-10 minutes)

  4. Have time for observations and questions/answers. (as needed)

  5. Interact with the horses 2 on 1 or 1 on 1, graduating to unassisted grooming and handling time. All time with horses will be via boots on the ground, no riding instruction. (20 minutes)*

  6. Be in a small class size - limited to 4 - 8 children total. (If friends and/or siblings feel more comfortable together we can allow for two children per horse)

    *Ground work with horses can be very powerful assist to emotional discovery, practice responsibility and leadership, courage building and resilience, cooperation, as well as trauma recovery. This is child-led. They are free to engage with the horses as they wish, within the limits of their understanding/abilities. Obviously no hitting or abusive behavior is permitted).
