Equine Facilitated Training Program
This training program follows modules including Natural Horsemanship, Equine Ethology, Autism and Mental Illness awareness, Mindfulness and personal development, allowing students to understand themselves on a deeper level so they can have a cognitive recognition of what belongs to them physically and/or emotionally and what belongs to the client.
Students complete their supervised training to qualify as a practitioner in Equine Facilitated Therapy whilst allowing them to offer supervised equine therapy sessions to those in need of support which would otherwise be unavailable to them.
You will learn of the different ways in which the horses work, the diverse problems they can help with and with their gentle approach they can build confidence and create a sense of inner peace within each and everyone of us.
