The Horses

Horses In Lives works with a herd of around 16 horses.

The horses are mixed and matched during sessions to best suit the participant/s needs.

Why Horses? ...Because....

THEY ARE LARGE AND POWERFUL.

THEY HAVE A NATURAL POWER TO
INFLUENCE PEOPLE IN POSITIVE WAYS.

THEY PROVIDE A NATURAL OPPORTUNITY FOR SOME TO OVERCOME FEAR AND DEVELOP CONFIDENCE.

LIKE HUMANS, THEY ARE SOCIAL
ANIMALS WITH DEFINED ROLES WITHIN THEIR HERDS.

THEY HAVE DISTINCT PERSONALITIES,
ATTITUDES AND MOODS.

THEY PROVIDE VAST OPPORTUNITIES
FOR METAPHORIC LEARNING.

THEY REQUIRE PEOPLE TO BE PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY INVOLVED
WHEN INTERACTING WITH THEM.

THEY MIRROR HUMAN BODY LANGUAGE.
