Equine-Assisted Learning 

Project Horse offers a variety of fun wellness and experiential learning experiences for families, groups of friends, children, teens, adults, corporate groups, and more. All our programs are custom-tailored to the specific groups we are working with and cover a variety of themes such as social-emotional learning, mindfulness, teamwork, leadership, and employee wellness experiences.

Groups can be defined as couples, family units (chosen family or biological), groups of friends, affiliations, work groups, sports teams, and more. Designed as one-time experiences, these workshops are customized for each specific group based on specific goals and intended for the experience. Created to give a group time to connect with our horses in a relaxing pastoral setting, these visits offer opportunities for groups to engage in personal development. Horses are very effective coaches and teachers as they help facilitate meaningful and memorable experiences. Through a variety of engaging and fun non-riding activities with the horses, each visit includes both individual experiences as well as shared group experiences for personal and team growth in a fun and engaging way.
