The NHEC Mindful and Relational Horsemanship paradigm honors the essence and well being of both horse and human.   Whether you are just starting out with horses or have a lifetime of experience with them, we welcome you and will meet you at whatever stage of your journey.   We are dedicated to preserving the peaceful energy of our environment, and sharing the horse as a teacher for self discovery, through relational horsemanship beliefs.  

Once the foundation work is laid and the path of communication is clear and strong, you and your equine friend will be coached through principles of mindful horsemanship.  Established students will be welcome to participate in the many activities NHEC has to offer: Trail rides, flag work(CowTrak), obstacles, and opportunities to compete at local shows and events. 

With the help of some extraordinary schoolmasters, NHEC's Adult Lesson Program is both comprehensive and transformational.   Each NHEC Lesson Horse was raised through the NHEC breeding program, educated through the NHEC training program, and have distinct and amazing personalities to share.  Much like match-making, pairing you with your NHEC Lesson Horse counterpart if thoughtfully executed to facilitate the needs of both individuals, helping set NHEC apart from a majority of lesson programs.
