K.I.D Coaching
Kindness Integrity and Discipline
(KID) Coaching is facilitated via interactions with a horse (or horses) and one of our highly trained and certified coaches.
Ground activities with the horses helps to uncover participant's greatest strengths and increases their self-esteem -- equipping them with tools for dealing with social and peer pressures.
​
The coaching process is brought to life by utilizing the horses' responses as the tool and motivation for learning. Kids can learn, by experience and in a judgement-free zone, what approaches and behaviors work - and what doesn't. No matter who you are, a horse will tell it like it is!
