About US
Snap Shots of Horses R us Nz
Hi, I am Nik, I am an Equine Specialist, teacher, coach and facilitator.
At Horses R Us Nz we support all people.
We work with people and incorporate horses to support making connections, grow on the inside and out and learn about your superpowers. By doing this we will empower people to gain confidence, self-advocacy and self-worth.
We give people the skills on how to find the answers within themselves, to trust themselves and their gut feelings.
The answers are there, within you. You just need to trust you.
It’s ok to take risks, it’s ok to even fail, as this is how we learn, explore and grow.
To find out how to get started on your journey, come and have a chat with us and meet our team.
Let’s talk about what we can do for you!
"Where you can connect, explore, learn and grow"
The Eagala Model
The Eagala Model is a client-centred approach that allows you to learn about your emotions, how to connect those emotions, to the feelings in their body and how to respond.
Having your own experiences fosters lasting transformation.
In the arena with the horses, feelings and thoughts come to you as you engage with the horses and can open new understandings in your life. You can speak to your team who are willing to talk about the tough stuff and respectfully follow your values and beliefs.
You become open to seeing things differently for yourself.
You can make meaning from your experiences and let go of behaviours that keep you stuck. You are free to live the life you intend.
When you have complex needs and have experienced trauma, you need the freedom to reflect and find your own answers. At Horses R Us NZ, you become confident in handling anything life gives you.
The Eagala Model is client-centred, where you are the expert in finding the answers you need.
