EFL engages the client in experiential learning with horses (and ponies) in a positive and safe manner, allowing for all participants (the client, the facilitator, the horse, and the spectators) to enjoy the experience at their own level of ability, interest, and mutual benefit. EFL promotes strategies to develop healthy relationships that can be generalised to the dynamics of all relationships. Much of this occurs through understanding herd behaviour as well as the relationship between human and horse.
