Just like us, horses also need training.

Echo has been away at Solequine for the past 4 weeks to learn how to use her body and to work on her straightness.
We never stop learning and nether does our horses. we are always wanting to be better.

Thank you so much Sola and Tori Jeffress- Classical Dressage and Liberty Riding

This is such a great article "How horses help humans heal – and
thrive".

A growing body of evidence suggests that the unique human-horse connection improves the physical and mental health of both species.

This was abit of a delayed post as l was so sad to complete the first Horse Wisdom Program of the year.

The layout of the last session was all based around what skill we need to face life challenges whether it is a positive or negative event.

I loved every bit of the 7 weeks l got to spend with the amazing people who participated in the program.

On the weekend both Echo and myself attended Tori Jeffress's Classical Dressage and Liberty Riding Clinic.

Tori focuses on creating a sound, balanced and willing horse.
It is so important to me to continue to learn and grow when being with my horses.

This in turn will help when doing Equine Therapy because you always want a happy horse who wants to be around people and participate.

Thank you so much, Tori:)

Today was the first intake for the year for the Horse Wisdom Program and it was all about learning to be calm.
