  • Part 3 - A group de-briefing where the experiences in the arena are discussed and explored within the context of the learning objective and paralleled to the outside world.

    Minimum group - 6 participants

SINGLE DAY AGENDA: 9:30am to 2:30pm

Three programs

  • 1 - Understanding your partner & building relationships - 9:30am to 11:00am

    • In the first program, participants receive a full orientation about safety and why we work with horses.

    • Participants learn about herd behaviours and the similarities to human behaviours. Going through a variety of obstacles, the participants learn about leading and stopping their horse.

  • 2 - Pressure & release - 11:00am to 12:15pm

    • In the second program, participants learn more about horse handling and how to use “pressure and release” to get results. With a light touch, participants will gain the cooperation of these large and powerful animals.

    • In addition to advancing their horse skills during this session, participants will continue to build upon their relationships with their horse and teammates.

  • Lunch - 12:30am - 1:15pm

    • Catered by Memphis Blues BBQ, including vegetarian and vegan options.

  • 3 - Communication - 1:15pm to 2:30pm

    • In the third program, participants are divided into teams and challenged to work through a variety of obstacles. To find success, the participants need to communicate effectively, discuss different options, and work together.

    • The goal is to have teams think about what they need to do, as a unit, in order to complete each challenge. This helps participants focus on the objective and encourages teamwork and communication.

Many Canadian organizations have embraced Equine Assisted Learning, using the BuildingBlock curriculum, as part of their investment in team building, leadership training, and wellness.
