In our continuing effort to bring innovative and accelerated change processes to our clients, we are pleased to offer Equine Assisted Learning as an alternative to traditional corporate and personal development approaches.
Equine Assisted Learning (EAL) uses horses as active participants to help facilitate the learning experience. Horses are social animals. By examining equine behavior, and how the horses may or may not react to us, we can better understand what may be more effective in our own human relationships. The equine-assisted model helps individuals learn about themselves and others by participating in activities with horses and then processing thoughts, feelings, behaviors and patterns. Because horses have personalities, much like people do, they provide instant and honest feedback.
The way a horse reacts to an individual’s interaction provides a visual metaphor for how co-workers or peers may react internally to that person’s actions in a work or personal environment. This gives insight as to why individuals are (or are not) getting the results they desire from their personal and professional relationships.
EAL uses a team approach, bringing together a horse specialist, a trained facilitator and the horses, to complete the learning environment. All activities are conducted from the ground, making EAL less strenuous than most ropes courses and more fun than classroom teambuilding. Working with the horses provides insights not often found in traditional teambuilding, executive coaching, leadership development and conflict resolution experiences. Our Phoenix facility, Renewal Ranch, offers a full range of development opportunities.
