Learning to Communicate with Horses is a non-riding horse class for adults 50 and over who have always wanted to learn about these majestic creatures. This half-day class will teach you safe communication with horses. You’ll experience a silky muzzle, warmth of breath and the feeling of serenity as you connect with a horse.
