What might an Equine Session look like?

Equine sessions take place at my field and are designed to provide a safe, supportive and engaging experience alongside horses. All sessions are ground-based, with no riding involved, allowing the focus to remain on connection, communication, confidence and personal development.

Every session is tailored to the individual, taking into account their needs, interests and goals. Time with the horses may involve quiet observation and mindful activities, practical exercises or more active challenges, depending on what feels appropriate for the person.

Every session is unique but may include:

• Meeting and observing the horse
• Grooming
• Leading exercises
• Groundwork
• Teamwork activities
• Mindfulness with horses
• Problem-solving tasks
• Confidence-building challenges
• Nature connection
• Reflection and goal setting

Working with horses can provide opportunities to develop self-awareness, emotional regulation, communication and confidence in a calm outdoor environment. By learning to observe, communicate and respond to the horse, individuals can explore these skills in a practical and meaningful way, while building positive experiences and celebrating their achievements.
