SFHM -043 The Equine Connection

Amanda Pratt, has been involved with horses for most of her life. She started her journey into therapeutic riding and equine assisted learning nearly five years ago by volunteering at a therapeutic riding centre in Orangeville. Once she'd been volunteering for a while, Amanda decided to pursue her Equine Specialist certification through EAGALA allowing her to be a certified team member in Equine Assisted Learning and Equine Assisted Psychotherapy sessions. After volunteering at the centre for three and a half years, she progressed to working at the centre full-time as an assistant instructor and fundraising coordinator. Listen to Amanda as she describes the many benefits of Therapeutic Riding.
