Jenna has been a great resource of information on Hippotherapy. She is an inspiration to me in bringing this great therapy modality to our community some day. Her video and interview is a great explaination of the categories of Equine Assisted Services. Great people doing great work!

What a nice surprise to be included on this! So...I guess I encourage everyone to vote for Journey Equine to help keep our amazing horses bellies full!
Mac and Bart show up for us each session and do their best. I am so incredibly blessed to have them with me to start this adventure. We are learning together and they aim to please every day!
Bart is our Grandpa of the program and Mac is our teacher. We are all doing our best to provide the unique horse-human connection experience and look forward to our future in our communities.

The Stanley Elementary School kiddos and Emmie have been working hard on their reining skills! But before we can get up in the saddle we worked on feeling how everyone...including the horses....has a space "bubble" and how to approach the horses while respecting their space to help them feel safety and comfort before we catch them.
We were able to touch on how this also pertains to the people!
We rode in the ba****ck pad to work on balance and to have a new challenge!
Smiles and giggles all around!

Arena Happenings 🐴

Ok..first if all we had a VERY exciting day on Monday for one of our Riders, Kaylee. FIRST RIDE EVER!!! She put in the ground work and learned the parts of the saddle and practiced sitting on a saddle on a barrel in preparation for this moment! She did great!

Kwuamme and Zion learned about the horses "bubble" and what the horse needs in life:

1. Safety
2. Comfot
3. Play
4. Food

In that order.

As we talked about what we can do to make the horse feel safe and comfortable we had a competition to see whose horse yawned first. 🤭 Zion got 5 YAWNS! iykyk...Zion has never touched a horse before Monday. 🤯 it was so fun to watch unfold. Kwuamme really stepped up to help his friend learn the ropes and said his favorite part was teaching Zion. 🥰

Emmie and Bart stepped out in there own practicing some reining. Of course we had to have some hair styling first 🤗

Its been a great week in the arena. 🩵

You guys...these kids are so amazing. The confidence in themselves is so great to watch grow...the enthusiasm to have more responsibility to care for the horses and the building we get to be in brings me so much pride in them and they have pride in themselves! Sometimes I wonder if a session had an impact (the excitement to be at the arena is REAL sometimes 😆) but as I reflect on our time together THEY ALL have an impact no matter what we get done. I love our time together.

I have said it a bunch but I will say it again and probably many more times. The people in my circle are the real deal and I am so grateful for them all. Joe Reum thank you for your support for this work.
