SUMMARY:HorsePower for Seniors
DESCRIPTION:HorsePower for Seniors is a free\, innovative program designed for people 55+ years\, focusing on reducing social isolation\, loneliness\, and improving quality of life. Our Equine-Assisted Learning (EAL) program fosters meaningful bonds between horses and seniors through:\n \n\nHands-on\, in-person experiential learning: Engage in ground-based\, unmounted activities that promote connection and trust with horses.\nLow-pressure interactions: Enjoy pleasant\, mindful interactions with horses in a safe and stimulating farm environment.\nSocialization and community building: Connect with others in the group through tea/coffee and refreshments.\nProviding opportunities for participants to connect with others in the group while enjoying tea\, coffee\, and refreshments.\n\nProgram Overview: Participants engage in activities such as grooming\, connecting with the horses\, observing and interpreting horse behaviour\, and participating in interactive\, horse-themed exercises. These sessions are designed to foster connection\, confidence\, communication\, and enjoyment in a supportive and inclusive environment. Please note our ground-based programming does not include riding or mounting the horse at any point during the session(s). \nLocation: \n6362 Bank Street\, Greely ON \nHow do I participate?\nIf you are interested in our seniors program please let us know your availability for July\, August and September\, or have any additional questions\, please email us at operations@ottawatherapeuticriding.ca or call us at (613) 821-1844.  \nWe recommend keeping groups to a maximum of ten individuals to allow for maximum interactions with the horses\, however\, we can also accommodate a bit of a larger group. \nWe look forward to connecting with you!
