Coaching with Horses
Coaching with horses
According to the European School of Coaching (EEC) Coaching:
“It is the art of asking questions to help other people, through learning, in the exploration and discovery of new beliefs that have as a result the achievement of their objectives “
However, within the coaching aspects such as personal, business, ontological, a new coaching technique has been developed. We will emphasize in the new technique througth the article, “Coaching with horses”.
The coaching assisted with Horses is a process that consists of several stages. When this process is facilitated by a team of expert professionals, participants are provided with a variety of new perspectives on their world. The experience they already have is enriched by generating a new vision of things, and therefore, changes in their behavior.
This therapy is very effective in the context of work and education. It is especially effective to improve communication and feedback. As well as helping to detect problems and areas of improvement from the emotional point of view in which to work. It also allows to strengthen attitudes and skills.
It is a relationship facilitation and support in a process where the “coachee” become aware of the current situation and the transformation and improvement necessary to achieve the desired situation, the goal.
The effectiveness of coaching programs with horses have fundamental points that must be considered.
This type of coaching has a particularity that makes it different from the others and is that you must have a wide knowledge of the behavior of the horse, guided by expert professionals. This allows you to decode even the smallest sign of your body language and understand what you are communicating. In this way, it will help us to better understand ourselves and our day-to-day environment.
In coaching with horses, the team that conducts the session consists of:
The equine specialist chooses the horses, proposes the exercise and structures the session. It communicates to the human specialist the record of the horse’s behavior, documents the session and supervises the safety and welfare of all the participants.
He is responsible for human resources, planning and structuring the session together with the equine specialist and is based on his comments on the behavior of the horses and facilitates their translation.
Personalized exercises are elaborated for each objective, depending on the skills that they wish to develop and optimize. At the same time, with the help of the equine specialist, the human specialist, the horse and the group that attends the session. Thus, attitudes, skills and areas to be improved are worked on in order to reach the desired objective more easily.
Likewise, the sessions are focused on the process and strategies used, and what skills and resources the participant uses to carry them out.
