Self Awareness: A Deeper Understanding Through Horses

Students will learn how their energy (through their body language) can effect their interaction with a horse. This discussion based class will show video clips on different ways to interact with a horse. Students will see the contrast between a high energy handler and a lower energy handler. They will be able to see which approach gets a better result when asking the horse to perform a task. We will go over a different video each week and have an open discussion about that video.

This is a reoccurring class: 10 weeks of unique information then it will start over.
