Pony Pathways is a gentle, grounded after-school offering for children seeking meaningful connection with horses, nature, and themselves. Through intentional groundwork, intuitive grooming, mindfulness practices and guided equine connection, participants are invited to develop confidence, emotional awareness, and trust in their own inner guidance.

Each session is an exploration—of energy, communication, boundaries and respect—shared in the company of a soulful herd. No horse experience necessary—just a willingness to listen, learn, and show up with an open heart.
