Notes from Clients

"Working with the In Balance horses, alongside gentle guidance from Val, Amy and Laurie, was one of the most impactful experiences I've had in a long time.  I had no idea why I was so drawn to this work, especially since I had been afraid of horses my entire life.  After a 10 weeks women's group, I can officially say that the label of being afraid of these powerful and wise animals no longer fits.  My confidence around risk grew immeasurably - inside and outside the ring.  I learned the critical importance of trusting myself and my intuition and how leveraging these gifts can shift everything.  Using my voice, playfulness and being in the flow of the moment, rather than always "brain-banging" solutions, created a profound sense of ease that is so relaxing and fun, it's hard to articulate. Throw in the spectacularly beautiful setting and the nurturing from the horses and I can't think of a better way to work on uncovering your best self." B.G., life & career coach
