Hi All!

We are excited to invite a couple of people to be involved in the life of our very special brumby pony Mirri, for a 2-month period (with options for an extended part-lease). We have created a package offer that outlines the framework of support we will provide for both her and the humans involved.

Our aim is to ensure there is value for the participant through both learning and establishing a language with Mirri based on connection and trust along with physical and emotional safety and promotion of wellness for horse and human🐴💚🍎

Please share with horsey friends!
Tom😊

Hi all

We are excited to be offering DNS yoga sessions Tuesday’s and Thursday’s 11am- 12:30.

These are small group sessions tailored to developing the body (and nervous system) for riding.

Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilisation applied to connection with horses offers a human movement training system that allows riders to develop to their athletic potential. Our goal is to develop strength, coordination, dynamic movement awareness and control that allows us to not impede the horses movement and actually assist more biomechanically correct and better feeling riding dynamics with horses. This enhances the potential for riding to become something that can develop friendship and positive based leadership with horses. Shaping a receptive and willing horse that reflects our best self.

We are lucky to have Prague school Certified DNS movement trainer Debra Rodrigues, who leads these sessions.

$30 per session.

Please PM for more info. Booking via PM or message is essential, as classes are kept small.

Hope to hear from you!

Thank you to all the kids who came together for a day of listening, connection and exploration of being with ponies, where we build rapport, have equality and see relationship before outcome.

Thank you to the adults who supported.

Thank you ponies for the curiosity, willingness, patience, feedback and tolerance of riders practising new ways of being and moving together🙏🏼🧝🏼‍♀️🐴

Holiday pony connection program’s for kids ⛰ 🐴 🧝‍♀️ 🧝🏻 🌳

Next week we are offering holiday programs for kids, who are wishing to connect with ponies in a way that supports the mental, physical and emotional wellbeing and development of both human and pony.

First, we will focus on creating space for the humans to transition into a more self-regulated, centred and focused state. This will involve developing more coordination and becoming practised in moving in a way that will optimise the riding experience – for pony and human! The purpose is to allow a connected and harmonious dynamic with the ponies, where the kids are receptive, responsive and in tune both physically and mentally with their ponies. To support them in learning to ride well and in a way that is sustainable and healthy for both them and the pony.

Kids will learn to receive non-verbal feedback through ponies body language and expressions and also to identify and listen to their own internal guidance systems. Allowing them to engage with the horse from a place of friendliness, respect and on the level of the nervous system. Definition and implementation of personal boundaries with the horses and other safety awareness is an important aspect of this work.

Movement Therapist and Trainer Debra Rodriguez is facilitating the movement practice component and will also assist with the riding, to allow correct postural riding patterns. Riding is not compulsory or necessary to benefit from these sessions. These sessions are informed by the principles of DNS, a revolutionary approach to movement optimisation (https://www.rehabps.com/REHABILITATION/Home.html)

🌾 Approx. 2 hours without ponies, 2 hours with.

🌾 The first group is for girls 6-12 years, 11am-3pm Tuesday 6/4. $40 per hour, per child ($160)

🌾 The second group is for boys 6-12 years 11am-3pm Thursday 8/4

🌾 Maximum of 6 kids per group.

Please contact for more info and to book in. We can cater for different ages.

We can't wait!!

Thank you,

Tom 🤠 🐴
