A COLLABORATION WITH GROUNDWORK THERAPY

TRANSITION FORWARD WORKSHOPS

LIFE & HORSES - A SERIES OF
CONSTANT TRANSITIONS

Learning about life and horses are both just a series of constant transitions. The Transition Forward workshops are designed to help us navigate and understand these transitions increasing our awareness so we can figure out the best way to go forward. Together Scott and Lindee McNaughton with Kylie Peters have developed a program working with horses as a way of learning about yourself.

Seek peace, learning and understanding through equine therapy.

Working with Kylie Peters from Groundwork Therapy, Scott and Lindee host and travel across the country conducting Equine Assisted Therapy through Transition Forward Clinics. These are small, intimate gatherings where participants are invited to bring their own horses or attend without a horse, allowing them to move at their own pace while transitioning through internal thoughts and feelings that may be holding them back.

“Horsemanship is the art of mastering our own movements, thoughts, emotions and behaviour. Not the horses”

— Mark Rashid
