Do we ride the ponies at BVEAL?
No.
This experience is just for me. It’s important for me to keep this magical part of my relationship with the ponies to myself. Am I a serious rider? Well… you decide. I do more singing, dancing, regulating and patting than serious riding. And that’s ok.
Before I studied EAL I didn’t really understand why I ‘didn’t fit in’ in the horsey world. I now understand why. Because the conversations I have with them are more important than their ‘job’. They owe me nothing. Just existing near me makes my heart bust with excitement, love and pride. To be walking along side them is the greatest gift in this universe.
I often get new clients say ‘this might sound weird, but I like the company of animals more than humans’. My answer is you belong here.
In sessions I might say ‘What did the ponies have to tell you today?’ And every time there are deep and beautiful answers from clients.
So if you love animals, are a bit ‘quirky or weird’, or think slightly different to your peers. Maybe this place is for you.
If you think I’m mad. Maybe this isn’t for you. And all is welcome and ok. 😍💖🦋🐴🌷🌿✨
I’m curious to know if you want to see more of my unique riding journey?
