Discover the gift of personal
freedom through horses.

Riding is a wonderful opportunity to share the trust and
energy of another animal and learn how to see the world through
their eyes.  It also allows us to share our strengths and
weaknesses with a totally non-judgmental partner.  Horses are
wonderful teachers of body awareness.  Their herd dynamics can be helpful
in guiding us through our daily lives in dealing with people.  We
learn the horse's own unique body language only to realize
it relates directly with how we behave with each other.
On horseback we realize how our bodies affect the natural flow of
the horse's energy and how through learning awareness of this,
the horse becomes increasingly more cooperative.  Through Yoga (union)
stretches we learn how to release - loosen the blocking - stiffened parts of
our bodies.  No more head in the air, hollow back, uncontrolled energy, either
rushing forward, or resistance to move forward.
Connecting with a horse can be on many levels - physical, mental and
emotional.  It is a doorway to enlightenment - a challenge not to
be ignored- a goal to strive for.
