A very social creature, the horse acts as a mirror and metaphor for many common human issues. Horses facilitate self-awareness in a deep and profound way.  Because they have no expectations, prejudices or motives, horses offer humans many opportunities, such as uniting unconditionally with another living human being and revealing one's self in a immediate and safe way, that are not easily found elsewhere. 

The horse-human bond can address the absence of the qualities, such as:

• Mutual trust, respect, affection, empathy, unconditional acceptance

• Direct, immediate feedback in reaction to each human action

• Improved self-esteem, confidence, personal success, responsibility

• Assertiveness, communication skills

• Healthy risk-taking, development of self-control and self-discipline

• Boundary setting, teamwork skills

New insights, skills and successes developed in the arena transfer to each participant's everyday life.  Medicine Horse Program provides a fun, challenging and unique environment in which human growth and potential may be achieved.
