Empowering Lives Through Equine-Assisted Life Skills Training

Empowering Lives Through Equine Learning

At Standing Tall Life Skills, Inc., we harness the power of horses to teach essential life skills to children and adults through engaging video and hands-on learning experiences. In continuous operation since 2019, we have witnessed amazing transformations of kids and adults who have experienced our program.

Life Skills

Teaching essential skills to children and adults through horses.

Hands-on Learning

Our hands-on programs help participants develop practical real-world skills to enhance physical, social, and emotional wellness. Some topics are how to grow your food, how to write a check or sign documents, money management, personal integrity, etc. Our goal is to instill a sense of self-reliance and resilience from the pressures of our society.

Horses help us understand humans better. With the help of our mentors and horses, our participants gain confidence in a unique and engaging environment. Horses help us learn our actions speak louder than words, hard work and preparation pay off, the importance of staying active and healthy, self-care, spending quality time with those you love, and that not everyone is your friend and that's okay.

Several horses are standing in a fenced area, some with saddles and harnesses on. The horses display various colors such as white, brown, and black. The background features a rural landscape with gentle hills under a cloudy sky.

Video Learning

We utilize innovative video learning techniques to reach diverse learners, reinforcing life skills through interactive lessons and promoting understanding in a relatable and accessible manner. With this added technique, the participants may learn at their own pace, at home, and with their families.
