The Academy for Coaching with Horses Announces 3rd Annual Equine Learning Retreat and Conference
BOULDER, CO – The Academy for Coaching with Horses, the premier Equine Facilitated Learning facility in Colorado, founded by Kathy Pike, international author of Hope from the Heart of Horses: How Horses Teach Us about Presence, Strength and Awareness, has just announced the 3rd Annual Coaching with Horses Retreat and Conference.
Equine Facilitated Learning and Coaching, often abbreviated EFLC, is based in the belief that the intuitive and sentient nature of Horse gives them an innate ability to help people connect to their most authentic selves. Horses are highly influenced by the subtle, nearly imperceptible changes in body language, mental state and feelings within humans, enabling them to act as a mirror and give honest insights into the human psyche.
