„Healing With Horses has become a place I naturally return to whenever I’m in Tobago. Over time, I’ve had the opportunity to help with grooming, walking, clipping, rinsing, handling, and caring for several of the horses, all with completely different personalities and temperaments.
Working closely with horses like Princess Julie, Dulce Dama, Aphrodite, Sir Winston, Zimbu, Kalakunjin, Mr. Divo and Apollo taught me how much horses respond to calm energy, confidence, patience, and mutual respect. Some of the horses known for being more selective or difficult with handlers were surprisingly comfortable with me, which made the connections I built with them feel even more special.
One of the most rewarding parts of being around the foundation has also been seeing nervous clients arrive afraid or uncertain, only to leave smiling after pushing past that fear and connecting with the horses. The herd really has a way of meeting people where they are. Once you approach them with respect and understanding, they often return that same energy right back to you.
Healing With Horses is such a unique and welcoming environment, filled with experienced people who genuinely care for both the animals and the visitors. I’m incredibly grateful for the experiences, lessons, and connections I continue to build there.“
