Equine Assisted Learning provides experiential learning opportunities by incorporating horses in the lessons with the goal of developing life and soft skills. The life skills can be related to academic achievement, appropriate behaviors, personal growth, social interaction, and team building. Core values that impact appropriate behaviors such as attentiveness and awareness, resilience and teamwork, communicating effectively, cooperation, making good choices, commitment, respect, empathy for others, kindness and critical thinking. Each lesson is incorporated into themed equine partnered activities which may be either on the ground or mounted.
