EAL is beneficial for everybody due to horses' judgement-free and transparent responses. Children and adolescents that are struggling socially or emotionally or that just need a confidence boost can benefit from experiential learning with horses.

Children and adolescents with Specific Learning Difficulties (SLD) and those on the autistic spectrum can also benefit hugely from EAL. Anxiety management and increased confidence and speech are just some of the benefits reported in research on the topic.
​
Student leaders such as prefects and head boys/girls can benefit from leadership skills development and can learn more about how to work together as a cohesive team.

​Corporate / Staff Groups

​Do you want to promote positive working relationships between members of your staff? Do you want to identify the effective leaders in your team in order to best place those working for you? EAL is beginning to increase in popularity in the corporate sector in businesses in New Zealand and abroad. We can design workshops according to the needs of particular staff.
