Youth Leadership Programs for Calgary Kids
Without even riding a horse!
Youth Development Programs Using Horses
Our youth programs are specifically designed around each group to ensure that they are learning the life skills necessary to aid in each youths personal recovery or growth.
Our youth groups are usually longer term and range between 12 — 24 sessions. This allows our facilitators to not only ensure the effectiveness of the course but also to track the advancements in each of the youth within it. It is an excellent approach to teaching that gives the youths an experience to pull from when they are faced with choices in everyday life.
