A little sneak peek at the first day of Winter Wonders 2024/2025! We had a wintery mix just in time, which made the hot cocoa especially tasty and the barn extra cozy! 🐴❄️☺️ 8 kiddos joined us for horse care and self care.
Thankful for @stablespaceindy’s partnership on this program 💕

Boys turnout ☺️
Our geldings (castrated made horses) all go out together. They have their best buddies, and usually break off in pairs after all saying “hello” to the group. We love watching them stretch their legs, socialize and graze.
Maverick, Conan, Music, Charlie, Chewy, Ranger and Denny 🐴
Lots of variation in this session! ☺️ From rings to backwards riding to a stroll through the woods, it was a great ride on a beautiful fall day. 🍂🍁🌾🍄

TRX barn session focusing on lateral movement and crossing barriers. Who wants to workout at a gym when you can workout at the barn?!

Opening the barn never gets old. Saying good morning to the horses, the smell of the barn, the peace and quiet while they eat their breakfast.
PS- don’t let Athena fool you; she’s a complete sweetheart 😂😊💕
Tash and 2/3 of her boys 💙🐴

Today we listened to our bodies and switched things up. This rider requested to walk in the sand, so we snagged another lead rope and taught him how to lead Coco. It not only added a new skill onto the list of things we are learning, it also helped build his confidence. There are endless ways to learn with horses!

When it’s time to come in for work 😁🐴
We see so many physical and mental benefits of regular turnout (pastures time) for the horses. When it’s time to come in, they are *almost always* happy to 🥰😆

Clinical Exercise Physiology at the farm?! Yes! In our opinion, it’s the best environment to work towards physical goals and gains 💪🚶🏻♀️
We have a certified personal trainer who also has their MS in Clinical Exercise Physiology 📚🤗
Here’s what we are working on in this clients session⬇️
🪣🧑🌾Farmers carries and asymmetrical loading targets balance and strengthening of walking gait and core.
🐴The core trainer helps us motor plan mounting and dismounting the horse, engage posture, challenge balance, increase range of motion and hip mobility.
This all sets the first ride up for safety and success!
