About this Event
October 26th (and all 4th Saturdays) Speaking Horse Class at Friendly Trails Horse Rescue. Understanding the language and nervous system of the horse. Holistic horse keeping methods and perspectives. Fundraiser for our new nonprofit horse rescue.
Our October theme is Therapeutic Touch, taught by director, Alane Freund, who will introduce three different kinds of therapeutic touch which come from the human healing world and have been adapted to aid horses (and all animals.) Highly sensitive people might especially benefit from this class as well as horse owners/riders who hope to improve their relationships with their equine partners. (Though this work is great for dogs as well, your dogs are not welcome at our horse rescue due to liability and distraction concerns.)
Come and experience the magic of working with horses firsthand. Get ready to roll up your sleeves, get your hands dirty, and connect with these majestic creatures. Whether you're a seasoned equestrian or just starting out, there's something for everyone at our Speaking Horse classes. Don't miss out on this exciting chance to bond with horses and fellow horse lovers. We can't wait to see you there!
Children 9 and older welcome with adult participation and supervision. Youth 15 and older may attend with signed parental permission form. We meet in a pasture with has uneven ground and slippery gravel. For these reasons, it is difficult to accommodate participants with limited mobility. (In some cases we are able to offer limited in-place, chair-based tasks, as well as onsite parking. Please call to RSVP 415-203-6600, first come, first served.)
This ia a volunteer orientation as well. It is an opportunity to meet our herd, both horses and humans.
