What is Equine Assisted Learning?
Collaborating with Equines to Engage, Educate and Empower
Equine Assisted Learning (EAL), also known as Equine Facilitated Learning, is an emerging field which consists of
reflective and active experiences with equines, combined with coaching, theoretical discussion and creative activities.
EAL is a unique and highly effective learning approach which
promotes the development of life skills for educational, professional and personal goals, improves emotional health &
wellbeing and increases self-awareness through non-ridden interactions with equines.
With a horse, pony or donkey as a teacher, alongside a trained and experienced human facilitator, participants of
Equine Assisted Learning will be guided through a journey of learning and understanding via planned and spontaneous experiences.
