Authentic You Mother Daughter workshop was a success! The girls and their moms were so awesome to work with. Whip thinks so too!

These two amazing kiddos helped out by practicing activities for our Mother and Daughter workshop next weekend. Even brothers can learn to improve communication!

Are you needing to “rebalance”? Find your direction? Reenergize? Pine Ridge Equine has teamed up with Parallel Effects to bring you the Authentic You Women’s workshop.! This workshop is designed to help you to rediscover who you are and who you WANT to be. Empowerment, communication, and self confidence are just a few of the skills you will focus on during this workshop. We spend time working with our incredible teachers, our horses, who will help you rediscover yourself. You do not need any horse experience and there is no riding involved. We will be hosting this workshop September 18 + 19 for women ages 55+ and September 25, 26 for women of all ages.

Our first Authentic You workshop with some beautiful amazing women! Such an empowering weekend!

Authentic You workshop is coming up, Sept. 19 & 20.

For children and adults alike.

When you love your horse SO much! Our granddaughter has claimed Pete as hers. How can we resist?

School will be starting soon and such an enormously stressful time for parents! For those of you who have chosen to homeschool and those of you who have not, think about adding a horse teacher to your child's learning experience. Each session is objectively driven and most of our objectives fall in line with Alberta's Health and Wellness curriculum. These sessions involve hands on learning that helps build confidence, communication, team building, problem solving, leadership skills and so much more.

These girls were so enthusiastic! Such eager learners as we went through our Orientation and Starting the Journey program. They learned about themselves while they were learning about horses.

HOME | Mysite As Alberta begins to relaunch, Pine Ridge Equine is getting ready to open. I am excited to be able to work with clients.

Summer Afternoon Camp for kids or families.
Cell phones and electronics get tucked away as we spend the afternoon working outside with the horses, and participating in brain challenging activities. This program will run 2 afternoons a week for 4 weeks. After each program, handouts are sent home with participants and parents so that the weekly objectives can be paralleled to situations outside the "horse classroom." Participants are then given a certificate upon completion of the program. During this Covid relaunch, programs will be limited to small numbers, either family groups or children in cohort families. Programs run 1 p.m. -3:15 daily
All Covid-19 protocols will be followed.

Additional camps and dates can be arranged to fit family needs.

As we step into our relaunch, I am getting excited to start working with clients. The programs will look a little different than I imagined they would as social distancing comes into play. The wonderful part of this is that every part of my program can be done outside. My indoor classroom is all set and ready to go (with cleaning and distancing protocols in place) but we can also do the classroom segment outdoors. I understand everyone's comfort levels are different. My programs will also run with smaller groups consisting of couples, single family units, or members of cohort families that wish to do the program with a friend.

This hasn’t been the best of times to try a new venture but we are getting close to being able to open. My facility is perfect for social distancing as our outdoor arena has lots of space! I am implementing all recommended cleaning and distancing recommendations and I’m looking forward to getting started with Equine Assisted Learning!
