What is YIELD?
Our YIELD programs encompasses a variety of Equine Assisted Learning activities that can be customized for the individual or group.
Most activities are done with horses on the ground with an endless number of fun and insightful activities.
The horse is a very intuitive creature that has a great sense of your true feelings and emotions and often responds in kind. Horses are non-judgmental and are not concerned with who you are, where you've been or what you've done they respond to the present moment.
YIELD-Take the time, take a moment and enjoy focusing on the horse and what it's communicating to you.
Cancellations
Deposits are non-refundable.
