HELLO

EKE

FRIENDS!

Equine Kinship Experience (EKE)

is a method that incorporates horses to help promote emotional growth in people to embrace life's challenges with strength and courage.

 

Horses are the most popularly used animal to help heal people. This is because horses have the ability to respond immediately and give feedback to a person’s actions and behaviours. They are also able to mirror people's emotions.

 

It is easy for participants to establish a connection with the horse. Horses behave like human beings in their social and responsive behaviour .

 

Horses ‘heal our hearts and minds’.

~ EKE Mission Statement ~ 

 

EKE "Equine Kinship Experience" facilitators/therapist(s) are dedicated to assisting

individuals, children and families in communities to achieve balance through

the mutually beneficial bond between animals, relationships, and nature. 

Many people aren't always given opportunities for enjoyment and expression in their daily lives which is integral for

having good mental health. The EKE programs serve as expressive and experiential outlets that enable people not just to enjoy themselves, but to feel fulfilled and stay healthy. Studies repeatedly find that animal assisted therapies are beneficial to brain development, as well as positive physical and mental health. 

Our clients have an enriching experience by working with the horses in their sessions. 
The feedback we receive is that EKE is fun, creative and positively challenging in overcoming personal issues whether it be in riding or on ground therapy. At EKE we work hard because we are passionate and believe in what we’re doing!

We are on a mission to spread positivity and hope to those who need it most.

Our services include an array of activities, here is just a list of a few on offer at the moment...

ABOUT
EKE

Equine Kinship Experience (EKE)

Participants of our EKE programs engage in hands-on learning that utilises the horse as a partner in exploring the positive development of communication, self-respect, confidence, trust, accountability, and conflict resolution. Sessions incorporate a variety of groundwork and activities such as grooming, leading, and herd observation. Then we move on to more in-depth activities with our horses and incorporate art, music, and inner-self healing. Our inner self is who you really are on the inside. To know your inner self is to know your purpose, values, vision, goals, motivations, and beliefs. Knowing your inner self requires a high level of introspection and self-awareness. We will utilise what pathway is desired by the client to go further with the experience. Our EKE programs can be tailored to specific individuals, groups, or organisations.  

We also offer horse-kinship lessons that teach horse husbandry and riding (beginner-intermediate) for riders with their own horses (T&C apply) at their property. These lessons focus on 'building your confidence' on the ground & in the saddle through developing congruency and balance in your relationship with your horse.

You will require your own public liability and rider insurance for this service. We come to you!
