Descripción
We are an association which cares for 4 horses.
We take care of them as brothers and sisters .
They are a herd since 2015 always living together in different places meeting up with other horses, donkeys and ponies with plenty of space to roam free and always being under our care in the most natural environment as possible.
We sometimes share with them some activities allowing people to experience the magic of such a interaction and relationship .
Now we steam the hay with a special equipment before we give it to the horses and this is the daily task we need help to accomplish!
We believe that the best way to understand the horses, develop the sensitivity and eventually create a healthy relationship with them, always has to pass by the service you give to care of them .
We are proud to offer the chance to share your time in their presence without "having to ask them something", this will allow you to have a proper attitude towards them allowing yourself to understand their specific characteristics like their sense of time, of peace , of fear , of cooperation , of joy ,of boredom, etc. and set up authentic basis to develop a relationship!
So, here horses are the masters and we are on our journey to grow our awareness!
It's not about riding .
The DUTIES are caring for them with daily checking , cleaning up the pastures , special feeding and special caring if needed About 3 hours per day
What to bring : kindnesses , responsibility , independent attitude . ))
The association is experiencing the knowledge about these wonderful creatures and wellness practices with some activities that just involve their presence and playful moments made through understanding and open will.
With an ecological perspective we enjoy nature and we are interested in meet people with similar interests or projects.
During your staying you will soak into our horse's world and that will uplift your consciousness about them and maybe also something about yourself

Living in such a close relationship with nature and the horses daily contact will allow you to work on your personal growth, with hints to recognise your emotions or personal characteristics like the empathy, the assertivness, the clarity, the mental flexibility , the tensions etc.
Here is a chance to grow your awareness and develop a correct body language when dealing with horses.

Ciao,
The help needed it's about the equines.
It's flexible from 2h. to 3h. per day, 5-6 days a week , we decide together
The duties are also involving phisical work , mainly walking some hills to check fences and filling up some wheelbarrew :)
Moving one horse from a pasture to another.
Having an independent attitude and the will to learn from the horses is fundamental.
You will benefit from the opportunity to observe the herds social dynamics and spending time with them is a great opportunity to improve your communication skills.
Don't worry you will be trained to accomplish the duties ;)

A Driving license and your own car o van is strictly necessary
