- **Event Name**: The Golden Hooves: 3 week series for age 55+
- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 04 May, 2026 at 10:00 am (-05:00)
- **Event Description**: A 3 Week Experience Designed for Adults 55+

This stage of life brings freedom, wisdom, and opportunity, but it can also come with real transitions. Changes in routine, roles, relationships, and energy levels can leave people wondering: What’s next for me? How do I stay connected, confident, and fulfilled?

The Golden Hooves is a welcoming, hands-on program created specifically for adults age 55 and up who want to stay engaged, build confidence, and enjoy meaningful connection, all in a relaxed outdoor setting alongside our calm, well-trained horses!

What You’ll Experience

Each week, you’ll spend 2 enjoyable hours at the barn, guided by our certified Equine Assisted Learning facilitator. There is no horseback riding and no prior horse experience required!

- Enjoy a relaxed coffee social to connect with others before beginning

- Begin with a clear introduction to the week’s focus

- Work in small groups, paired with either a miniature or full-size horse

- Spend time grooming and interacting with your horse, then moving through gentle, engaging activities designed to support communication, confidence, and teamwork

- End each session with a guided group conversation to reflect on the experience

All activities are done on the ground, at a comfortable pace, and with safety as a top priority. A full orientation and safety overview is provided.

Why Horses?

Horses respond honestly to how we communicate, move, and show up. Working alongside them offers simple but powerful insight into:

- confidence and self-trust

- navigating change

- relating to others across generations

- staying present and engaged
