<p><strong>Certified Practitioners</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Christina Pitts and Lynne Aldrich are Advanced Practitioners in Experiential Learning with Horses, in ongoing learning to achieve mastery.</li>
<li>Certified by the Business School at Lake Erie College, nationally-acclaimed for Equine Learning Programs.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Horse-Guided Coaching &amp; Consulting &#8211; </strong><strong>A Unique Methodology Enhancing Our 20-Year Coaching/Consulting Practice</strong></p>
<p>Horses …</p>
<ul>
<li><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Mirror</span> what humans think &amp; feel in the moment:  when we engage with horses, we <span style="text-decoration: underline;">learn extraordinary things about</span> <span style="text-decoration: underline;">ourselves.</span></li>
<li>Are born leaders, trusting their senses, knowing their purpose and taking clear action.  The herd thrives by developing leadership skills in all of its members.</li>
<li>Heighten our <span style="text-decoration: underline;">awareness</span>, teaching us to <span style="text-decoration: underline;">focus</span> on <span style="text-decoration: underline;">intention, behavior, communication</span> which enables <span style="text-decoration: underline;">more choices</span> to be <span style="text-decoration: underline;">most effective in work &amp; daily life. </span></li>
</ul>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>The Work* &#8211; Learn by Full Engagement in Doing &amp; Being </strong></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Participants engage</span> in practical activities, with opportunities for large group, small group and individual work.</li>
<li>We <span style="text-decoration: underline;">partner</span> with horses <span style="text-decoration: underline;">in a respectful &amp; safe way</span>, interacting at a distance or standing together in “ground work”to teach &amp; learn.</li>
<li>The <span style="text-decoration: underline;">presence of horses</span> creates a context for competency-building that enlarges our capacity to <span style="text-decoration: underline;">clarify intention</span>, <span style="text-decoration: underline;">plan fully</span>, and <span style="text-decoration: underline;">collaborate effectively</span> to achieve results.</li>
<li><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Skills development</span> with horses <span style="text-decoration: underline;">demonstrably deepens &amp; enhances learning:</span> client satisfaction far exceeds expectations.</li>
<li>Working with horses brings a <span style="text-decoration: underline;">new dimension of wonder &amp; beauty</span> to our daily lives.</li>
</ul>
