Better health with horses workshops
There is something about the outside of a horse
that is good for the inside of a man.
~ Winston Churchill

The Better Health Workshops with horses bring a fun and enjoyable approach to loosing weight and de-stressing from urban living.

Escape to the countryside for a work-out with horses as your partners with the Weight Loss workshops or quiet and peaceful solitude from a hard day's work with the De-stress workshop.

And ~ both workshops are also Good For You!

One of the similarities between human and horse bodies is that horses have three different types of movement -- vertical, horizontal and rotational -- and so do humans!

Working out with horses is a lot of fun! There is the work-out, but also time to pat your horse, thank your horse and just laugh as you and your horse enjoy time and exercises together!

Escape from the stress and strains of life for a peaceful, serene one hour in the company of a horse.

Prepare your horse for a quiet guided walk in the field, surrounded by nature and peaceful solitude.

A participant describes the experience best,

"I tried the workshop with scepticism. I didn't think that a horse could really affect me in any real way, although I think that they are beautiful. The calmness of the horses seems to rub off on one and just being with them is better than any therapy. They seem to possess an inner healing ability of some sort, effortlessly. I really have to say that they're very patient, they understand so much without you saying a word and I feel renewed, relaxed and happy after every workshop!"


It must be the Intuition that horses are so naturally adept at!

Unwind, de-stress and feel at peace. Conclude by putting the horse back in the paddock/stall with a treat.

Please note: There is no horseback riding in the workshops.

The Epona Stable is a private riding stable located on seven acres of fields in Port Coquitlam.
