Learning with the Help of Horses
Horse-Assisted Education
Reconnect with how you lead—by noticing how you show up.
You work hard to lead with clarity and purpose. But even the most committed leaders can’t always see the energetic signals they’re sending. That’s where horses come in.
Horse-assisted coaching offers a powerful mirror. Without judgment or agenda, horses respond only to what’s true in the moment—your presence, your intention, your clarity. By partnering with them, you’ll uncover subtle shifts that unlock trust, confidence, and deeper alignment.
Whether you're leading a team, navigating change, or simply craving a new way to grow, horse-assisted coaching helps you experience your leadership—not just talk about it.
To Get Started:
Please schedule a 30-minute "zoom coffee" chat. We will take a moment to connect and create understanding; and then work out logistics.

Horse-Assisted Coaching Offerings
One-to-One Sessions
Individual sessions are approximately 90-minutes and are delivered at Stable Acres in Petaluma (unless otherwise arranged). Half-day personal workshops also available.
Each session begins with a discussion of what your intention is for the session, what is it you are working to transform in your life? We will then set up an activity with the horse(s) and interpret their feedback together.

Your Energetic Signature
A one-day, horse-assisted immersion into how your energy shapes your impact—and how to shift it from the inside out.
Even the most thoughtful leaders can be unaware of how their energy lands with others. You may be coming across as too intense, too vague, too accommodating—or simply misaligned with your deeper intentions.
And here’s the hard part:
You can’t shift what you can’t see.
In this experiential one-day workshop, you’ll partner with horses to explore your energetic signature—the unspoken signals you send in every interaction.
The workshop can be done:
on the advertised dates in Petaluma;
as a full day workshop with either an intact team or private group;
as two half-day individual (or couple) sessions.

Horse Power:
Step Out of Drama, Into Direction
This workshop is for mission-driven leaders who are starting to see the patterns that keep you stuck—but don’t yet have the tools to shift.
You’re capable, compassionate, and committed to your people. But that same care can turn into over-responsibility, blurred boundaries, or subtle reactivity.
You’re craving a leadership model that allows you to bring both heart and direction.
This is a workshop for the leader who wants to stop reacting—and start choosing.
The workshop can be done:

The Art of Leadership: Teambuilding
When a team is not functioning optimally--disengaged members, people not getting along, people not in their "swim lanes", passivity... it can cost an organization thousands or even millions of dollars. Nevermind that it also makes the organization toxic and then everything to do with people from recruitment to retention, gets exponentially harder.
In order to evolve to a place where people can trust each other to do their best work, they have to really see each other. And they have to understand the impact that their energy, their participation (or not) is having on the group.
Horse-Assisted team building is a unique situation where the feedback is abundantly clear and is coming from a completely non-judgemental, present and loving source. People will often do things for the horse that they will not do for themselves.
Our team building events can be life-changing for the individuals and trajectory-changing for a team. They build trust and communication and are fun, engaging and collaborative rather than competitive.
There is no prior horse experience required and athletic skill is not correlated with performance...in fact the activities are designed to be about learning, not performance.
The ability to experience collectively, and in the moment what is and what is not working offers profound opportunities to practice something new and is both effective, sustainable and unforgettable.
The Art of Leadership program was created by Gerhard Krebs and the Horse Dream concept has licensed partners all over the world. If you would like to have this program delivered in multiple locations, we can help you to arrange that.
