Community

Something that has always been important in our program is facilitating and harboring a space where people could come together and learn without judgement. We are excited to expand and allow this community to evolve through Equine Facilitated Learning!

What is EFL? EFL or equine facilitated learning is a unique form of education and instruction that opens the doors to people within the horse community and beyond. Not to be conused with EFP (Equine Facilitated Psycotherapy), EFL boasts its own set of benefits. From helping with team building exercises to providing a safe space for those who need, EFL has proven to be immeasurably beneficial.

Michele is now a HERD Institute certified EFL instructor and will be offering group sessions. Something that has always remained important and at the forefront of dedication to this program is giving back to people and also creating a space where everyone can come together and share in the magic of what horses bring to our lives. You don't have to be a horse owner or someone who rides regularly to be able to be a part of this community. Though Aiken is known as an equestrian town, filled with clinics and shows just about every week, I would like to open the doors to those outside of the equestrian community to be able to connect and grow with horses.
