Somatic Horsemanship has changed my view of what ‘horsemanship’ means. I am a more authentic person for my horse and for myself. Direction setting, staying grounded, and having clear intention are useful skills that are transferring to my relationships with others.

We offer a powerful and leading edge approach for

organizations and businesses seeking to enhance the skills, presence and effectiveness of their leaders, managers and teams. With guidance from our horses, participants receive a deeply impressionable hands-on opportunity to experience leadership and team working in ways that can be directly applied in the workplace.

Participants quickly discover how their basic motivations, body lan-guage and energy level impact those around them. Working with the horses through a series of trial-and-improvement activities and exercises, will enable participants to improve their performance and achieve a meaningful goal.

Horses guide us to what we need to shift in order to achieve our goals,

improve performance and effec-tively gain the trust, cooperation and respect of others. Gain valuable insight into emotional and social intelligence, authenticity and their impacts on leadership ability, rela-tionships and team productivity.

There is also ample opportunity for discussions, debriefings and a final evaluation to take the learning back to the workplace.

Education Programs and Services It’s critical now, more than ever, that we provide our

future generation with mentoring and resources to excel in our complex and global world. For this, we offer Open Enrollment programs and Customized Services for youth, parents, educators and mentors. In addition to Equine-Guided Education (EGE) activities we also explore land and nature-based practices, to develop self-esteem, confidence, awareness, intuition and a feeling of belonging to the community of earth.

Youth tend to enjoy considering ideas and new challenges, they are interested in the present moment and thrive with imagination. Horses do too. We help others to follow this way of being within their parenting, teaching and mentoring. Horses also teach

us how to be more aware and responsible for how and what we are actually communicating and if we are coordinating effectively. They help us develop trust, authenticity, effectiveness and integrity with our selves and each other.

Incorporating horses into the educational process encourages a learning environment that is non-judg-mental, practical, patient, challenging and rewarding. Join us for a truly unique learning experience that will shift the way you administer learning programs, parent, mentor and teach!

New for 2013, in partnership with SkyHorse, we will be offering a SkyHorse EGE training course that may lead to EGE certification, please inquire.

Familymother-daughter day — A very special day of equine-guided immersion in which we grow, learn, and appreciate the importance of family. Communicate without words and ignite curiosity.

father-son/daughter day — Take a break from everyday surroundings, separate from distractions of phones, computer devices and friends to take in fresh perspectives with that special person in your life. Engaging in equine-guided activities on level playing ground can mean more than you might imagine.

I’d recommend this program as a great connection to interpersonal and leadership interpretations and to increase self awareness.

Shawn Decker, Senior Management

skills with horses are neither necessary nor required and almost all equine-guided learning takes place on the ground. All activities are held outdoors with some indoor teaching times, so dress for the weather. Although the outcome is no-nonsense, the sessions are designed to be enjoyable, fun and long lasting.

Lunch, beverages and snacks are included for all full and multiple day events. Just around the corner, Red Hen Bakery serves local, nutritious, organic food. We are a proud supporter!

This program is professionally done and is suitable for individuals or groups from the very highest corporate level on down. Anyone who is simply interested in understanding his/herself on a different level, becoming a better person or a more effective leader/team player will benefit. Doug Lombard, Educator

What is Equine-Guided Education (EGE)? EGE unites equine activities with experiential and observational learning, land-based wisdom and self-reflection to accelerate human growth and development. The word ‘guide’ means ‘to show one the way.’

Horses as our guides tune in to the subtle clues that we give, reading how we hold our bodies, extend our intentions, connect with self and others and embody what we care about.

They are nonjudgmental and live completely in the present moment, allowing them to clearly respond to us with social intelligence based on thousands of years of effective leadership and group dynamics.

Based on their responses they inspire us to shift our perspective, see and feel out possibilities, create vision, and make new choices of action for success.

EGE practitioners and instructors are expected and required to meet and maintain a rigorous and explicit

Code of Ethics and Standards. Our team and partners offer a wide range of skill and experience in leadership development, wellness, mentoring and education. Our staff and faculty are here for your safety and success.

Horses & Pathfinders is located in north-Central Vermont, and nestled in the Mad River Valley — 15 minutes from Montpelier and 30 minutes from Burlington. The land, confluence of 2 great rivers, wildlife and horses provide a neutral and natural environment that is both body opening and real.
