We ended the session well. The students had a great time sharing with their families and friends the horse skills they had learned during the eight weeks. More importantly, the guests were able to see the students putting into practice the new life skills they learned. Each student finished the session changed on the inside. They were more confident, they were in control, they were respectful of their horses as well as the people around them. This is what we love to see. This is the power. This is why we do what we do.
Had week three yesterday, what a blast! We have four students this session, our max. The girls smiles are becoming a sight we see more often, and we love that! This group of girls has caused us to up our game, they are fast learners and so we have had to keep extra activities i our back pocket to always be ready to forge ahead. They normally start riding on week three, but this group was already in the saddle on week two, by yesterday, week three, they were not only walking their horses through obstacles in the arena, they were trotting them! Thus, the smiles continue. Flexibility is key in a program like ours, and our instructors and volunteers are always ready to step up when called upon to do new things. We have the best women committed to being instrumental in helping our students find hope and healing through Equine Assisted Learning.
Parker Sisters Ranch is so excited for our fall session which starts Saturday, September 21st, 2019! This will be Parker Sisters Ranch 6th 8-week session and we are so proud to be growing quickly.
