Make your clients your trainers, transform your horses, deliver healing.
ATHENASM
A cutting edge intervention for addressing adults with trauma, therapy horses that need care, training and rehab, and children needing the best possible horses for their equine therapy all in one package.
Why Do I Need ATHENASM
Most therapeutic stables struggle for time to train muscle and supple their horses. Yet a horse that is not brimming with well-being cannot transmit well-being to a client in need. With ATHENA you transform your adult clients into horse trainers and maintainers – which empowers them. Your horse gets the care it needs and the client who then rides that horse gets the maximum benefit. Meanwhile your overworked staff are less stressed because the horse maintenance serves one set of clients and so does not have to be done in a separate timeframe.
Put simply, ATHENA saves you time and money and gives you awesome horses into the bargain as well as two sets of clients simultaneously served.
1. The Program
Learn to lunge a horse properly for muscle, rhythm and balance. Learn to use long reins for collection. Learn in hand work to supple and build strength. All while serving clients.
2. Certification Courses
In our certification courses we take you through training the horses, and learning to teach your client to become trainers. 3 Levels to make learning easy and effective.
