EAL is a non- traditional approach to learning which involves hands-on activities with horses. EAL is a form of experiential learning which occurs when a person is interacting with their environment, including the people, animals and situations involved, for an educational purpose. By taking part in structured activities, participants are better able to reflect on what takes place and apply it to other areas of their lives.
The horses are used as metaphors in these activities to build life skills and to promote the exploration of behaviors. The fact that horses exhibit personalities, attitudes and moods, as unique as any person's provides endless experiences and situations for discussion, analysis, and learning.
EAL sessions at the Creative Growth Center are available for individuals, families, and groups.
