A Revolution in Equine Assisted Work – Shared Stories from a Panel of Equine Assisted Practitioners
The introduction of Equine Assisted Psychotherapy, Coaching, Leadership and Learning has dawned a quiet revolution. Practitioners around the world are bringing the horse into the healing and transformation process in a powerful and experiential path to help people learn more about themselves. Teams discover new ways of working together, leaders experience the intricacies of leadership styles and individuals get to the heart of their feelings and desires, while children find new confidences and views on life.
We invite you to hear our panel of equine assisted practitioners: Kami Guildner, a Certified Equine Guided Education Association Life & Leadership Coach; Sharon Bringleson, an EPONA Advanced Approved Instructor; and Duey Freeman, the Director of the Gestalt Equine Institute of the Rockies. The panel will share experiences and stories. They will highlight some of the shared principles in each of their unique modalities of equine assisted work and how the horse helps engage mind, body, emotion and spirit. Finally, they will discuss important considerations for those interested in embarking on a journey as an equine assisted practitioner.
