Horses make great educators. They don't care who you are, where you are from, what you do for a living. They are great listeners of verbal and non-verbal communication. They will tell you what you need to know and not what you want to hear. If you are listing to a horse you will learn how to survive and thrive.
Horses at liberty
Horses at liberty can choose to be compliant, or not. They only follow people they trust. Horses want a leader that is why they will follow people. They want to feel safe in their environment. These are all human traits that make horses the best interactive diagnostic tool to understanding what we are presenting to the people around us. Horses are not being taught anything in Self-Control, Awareness and Resilience training. It is the reverse, we are seeing how we are impacting any situation.
This is why any mounted unit that has a facility for the horses and has the equipment used to train the horses is the best place to have this class. This is a seven hour class with breaks for the attendees and the horses. Water and hay are available in the arena for the horses.
