Welcome to De l'Ain Academy, an Equine Facilitated Learning (EFL) Practice
What is Equine Facilitated Learning ?
EFL is an experiential approach which engages interactions with horses to assist individuals with personal growth, team building and emotional development. We involve partnership with horses guided by a facilitator who helps participants reflect on their experiences and promotes individual or group learning.
EFL can support mental health initiatives by fostering connections and providing a safe space for emotional exploration.
Horses are highly intuitive animals that can mirror human emotions and behaviours and provide immediate feedback. This allows participants to gain insights into their interpersonal skills and emotional patterns.
EFL is not limited by age or ability; it is inclusive and accessible to people from all walks of life. Everyone can benefit from engaging with horses in this practice.
EFL emphasizes on hands-on activities with horses including grooming, leading and groundwork exercises. Participants learn about communication, trust and relationship dynamics directly through these experiences.
Additionally, EFL is increasingly recognised as a valuable tool for corporate team building, leadership development, and organisational change initiatives.
By participating in experiential activities with horses, teams can improve communication, enhance trust, and cultivate a collaborative work environment.
