Hands & Hearts for Horses Field Trip

The activity will focus on leadership through presence, body awareness, and non-verbal communication. To participate in the activity and engage with the horses, please wear closed-toe shoes.

Additionally, speaker Fran Gilbert gives us an overview of Sportsability Alliance and its work to enrich lives through accessible, inclusive recreation and active leisure.

Hands & Hearts for Horses is celebrating 25 years of changing lives through therapeutic horsemanship. Be sure to join us for this special meeting!
