Equus Coaching

The essential joy of being with horses is that it brings us in contact with the rare elements of grace, beauty, spirit, and freedom.

Equus Coaching

Equus Coaching is a unique, experiential approach to personal support that is difficult to describe in words, but profoundly powerful when experienced in person. At the heart of Equus Coaching is the remarkable connection between horses and humans. Horses share the fundamental need for a healthy and safe existence, which mirrors human needs and aspirations for fulfillment. These magnificent creatures, integral in the advancement of humanity, establish swift and direct connections with people that cut through layers of false identities. Through this deep connection, horses provide invaluable biofeedback that reflects an individual’s true essence, which is felt at the core level of every human.

Benefits of Equus Coaching:

Equus Coaching creates unparalleled opportunities for deepening self-awareness, communication practice, exploration of meaningful connections, problem-solving and goal management. This alternative form of support opens up avenues for self-discovery, self-reflection, examination of emotions, and belief testing by offering inspiration and practical insights that transcend traditional life coaching boundaries. The judgment-free nature of horses, focused on peace and balance, provides a sanctuary for personal growth and extends healing for the body, mind, emotions, and energy.
