Our Tailored EFL Relationship Programs
Horses teaching us about human relationships?
Horses provide immediate mirrored feedback; they respond to our body language, our outward energy and our feelings, they, therefore, help to decipher how we interact in our relationships. Horses encourage us to learn how to better our human relationships in a safe, nurturing environment.
Equine Facilitated Learning (EFL) develops a real practical understanding for the participant to tackle their relationships with others. No horse experience or skill is required to participate in our programs. Anyone of any age, background or ability can benefit.

I was somewhat skeptical at first but EFL has been amazing for my son that has ADHD. He loves every session and is making very apparent progress in learning techniques to control and reflect on his behaviour. Truely Amazing!
Mario J.
Parent, ADHD ChildThe meaningful outcomes that I see from participants undergoing EFL is often remarkable. The reporting after each session helps me to work with the client during my sessions. The feedback has been outstanding!
Susan Webb
CounsellorI have always loved being around horses, when I found Natalie I knew it would be great for me. After my first session I left knowing I had made the right choice. She is so kind and accommodating and I felt so comfortable. Highly recommend!
