Children’s Equine Therapy & Wellness Programs
Slower Pace of Life
The Equellness Center is an organization who believes that a child’s wellbeing benefits from a slower pace of life.
Today’s youth live in a society that expects them to do more, want more, and be more. This, in turn, often creates undue stress and anxiety.
We invite your child to the Equellness Center; a place of refuge where a child can learn to:
- Listen to their body
- Connect with others
- Connect with others
Our mission is to equip children with valuable social and emotional learning applicable throughout their life’s journey.
Our Approach

Nonverbal and Verbal Communication
Children communicate nonverbally with horses during horsemanship, fostering emotional understanding, while verbal communication is encouraged through activities integrating social-emotional learning, enhancing expression and comprehension.

Empathy
By integrating social-emotional learning into horsemanship, our programs foster empathy in children, encouraging them to connect with horses and become more aware of their own and other’s feelings.

Self-Regulation
