Being a good friend looks like…

Playing - Laughing - Expressing - Climbing - Sneaking - Solving - Sharing - Sitting - Running - Hiding - Seeking…

Together

Experience the wonder of horses, nature and transformation!

When a child becomes part of the herd, they are instantly accepted for who they are.

In a safe and non-judgmental space children see that who they are is exactly who they need to be.

When a child feels comfortable being themselves, they become excited about learning new skills.

Through connection with horses, children are empowered to experiment with how their energy impacts those around them and they’re motivated to use their strengths to be better friends.

NOTE: An ideal launching point for any of our youth programs is the Symatree Experience.

This one-hour visit lets your youth see the place, meet us, interact with the herd, and experience our mentoring and facilitation style first-hand.

Register with complete confidence, knowing that we’re a great fit for you!
