Here are some of the services at Eagle Valley Equestrian
Lessons are done from within E.V.E.’s ‘Enlightened Horsemanship’ perspective. This means you’ll learn much about yourself and the horse you’re partnered with before you even step foot in a stirrup. The focus of the lessons is learning how to work in harmony, and understanding of the horse you’re with, as well as how to be more self-aware while you’re interacting with your equine partner. This kind of awareness is essential to being successful with horses in whatever way you interact with them—riding, handling, treating, etc. This awareness is fostered on the ground first, in the saddle second. Students are expected to create rapport with their horse before working under saddle.
Natural Hoof Care - By applying the principles that keep mustangs’ hooves tough and sound, natural hoof care practitioners have been able to unleash the healing power of the hoof and drastically increase the soundness of domestic horses’ hooves. Problems that were or are still considered ‘genetic’ or ‘uncurable’ are able to be healed with this type of hoof care—natural hoof care.
Horsemanship Camps at Eagle Valley Equestrian are about so much more then riding horses. They enable youth of all ages and experience levels to not only learn good horsemanship, but to gain confidence, self-esteem, a sense of responsibility and to work as a team. Campers are challenged to build on more than their horsemanship skills. Every activity at camp holds an opportunity for greater self awareness and the development of personal skills that will assist campers in any arena of life. Equine Experiential Learning lessons, journaling, “spirit paintings” and “medicine walks” are just a few examples of the activities that all provide campers a chance to get to know and appreciate themselves and their abilities on a deeper level.
Enlightened Horsemanship Grown Up Workshops - In order to develop a relationship of trust and confidence with your horse, you must learn how to speak your horse’s language and understand its behavior. At E.V.E. we believe you can’t have an “enlightening” relationship with a horse until you understand them in this way and demonstrate this understanding to your horse. Natural Horsemanship provides the perfect tools to developing this kind of understanding and we will practice some of the basic ones.
We also believe that you can always, in any situation, learn something about yourself from your horse to benefit both of you. At this camp we will show you how to utilize your relationship with your horse as a vehicle for personal growth and an authentic life. You’ll learn many tools to deepen your understanding of and your relationship with your (or any) horse, as well as the people in your life.
