Get Curious: When Life Goes Sideways

Does your child struggle when things don’t go as planned — big emotions, quick reactions, shutting down?

Get Curious: When Life Goes Sideways is a ground-based equine-assisted learning program where youth partner with horses to practice self-regulation, flexible thinking, and problem-solving. When challenges pop up in the arena (and they will!), youth learn how to pause, breathe, adjust, and try again.

Through hands-on activities with horses, youth will strengthen their ability to slow down, regulate emotions, accept feedback, and build confidence through productive struggles.

Whether new to LyonHeart or returning, this spring program helps youth develop skills they can use at school, at home, and in everyday life.

Is your child ready to grow in confidence and resilience this spring?

Dates:   Tuesdays, April 21, 28, May 5 & 12.  

Time:  5:30 – 7:30 p.m.
