HORSE AS TEACHER
Growth & Learning Programs

Working with horses provides opportunities for adventure, reflection, and personal growth. Horses provide a connection to nature and reflect our own beauty and power. Horse as Teacher lessons and workshops are a powerful complement to more conventional forms of therapy, helping address issues of trust, control and self-worth. In the proper setting, horses can teach us to be present, to listen, focus, and take action. Interacting with horses in individual sessions, with family members, co-workers or in empowerment workshops can enhance all of your relationships.

Training services provided at Galleywinter Farm, 20 minutes from Charlottesville at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Galleywinter Farm is a unique environment for growth and learning, a sort of experiment station for relationships - human and equine. Situated in western Albemarle county at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains, and 4 miles from Shenandoah National Park and miles of riding trails, the farm offers students and visitors a respite from the hurried pace and pressures of modern life. In brief workshops or ongoing curriculum, many women find the pieces they need (and love) on their journey to optimal health and happiness.
