Example of an Equestrian Programme
Hosted by Kids of Nature and facilitated by expert Gilliyan Carter-Morgan, leading UK Sports & Remedial Massage Therapist for Horse AND Human.
Equestrian Programme
Join Kids of Nature for 4 nights and 5 days in the glorious mountains of Stanford near Cape Town, South Africa, where you will learn how to massage, mobilise, and stretch your horse, as well as indulge in me-time by unplugging from the crazy business.
Book your spot and set yourself (and your horse) free!
Gilliyan Carter-Morgan, leading UK sports & remedial massage therapist, will teach you techniques to improve the overall performance and maintenance of your horse. You will also enjoy daily guided trail rides in the mountains and along pristine coastline, PLUS indulge in a well-deserved sports massage for yourself.
This multi-dimensional equestrian programme includes vacation time, equine therapy, and self-empowerment. It will leave you a more skilled horsewoman/man refreshed, rejuvenated, and confident to keep your horse safe from injuries that could have been prevented.
Inspiring, exclusive programme: 6 participants [6 humans + 6 horses]
Location: Stanford, South Africa
Level of creature comfort: beautiful, simple luxury in breathtaking surroundings
