Because our horses are your teachers. We focus on leadership & trust-building exercises, with one-on-one interaction, that have proven to foster emotional intelligence, self-mastery as well as significantly up level leadership capabilities in life & business. In our program, there is no evaluation process involved & no judgment created which makes us different from traditional therapy – we cut out the middleman. We have curated a transformative leadership experience that works best with each individual by directly engaging them with our horses. Our program establishes profound, immediate & positive results.
ELP is based in Topanga Canyon, California at La Esperanza Ranch. La Esperanza Ranch was built over 27 years ago & it’s biodiverse, thriving & lush environment has become a very special home for our 4 horses! We look forward to seeing & working with you here at the ranch.
Yes! We welcome people of all ages & experience levels to experience ELP. Because there is no riding involved, ELP is great for all leaders: CEOs, corporate managers, entrepreneurs, business owners, etc. seeking to reach their goals, create real success, improve their communication skills & become a better leader in life & business.
ELP requires one-on-one interaction with the horse. We pair our horses with clients based on their needs. There are 4 horses we choose from & each time you may be working with a different one, depending on your energy of the day & the matching energy of the horse at ELP.
Yes. My horses are highly experienced with all kinds of people & their calm, collected energy is a great way to overcome anxiety. However, we encourage all clients to proceed at their own comfort level & can immediately stop a session at any moment if needed. Our horses are very happy & well-treated, living a free herd life during the day when they are not actively participating in the program. Thus, their strong instincts & nurturing nature always makes them safe to be around.
No. This is not about horseback riding. The best foundational work is done through on the ground interactions.
Please arrive in long pants & shoes that cover your ankles. Each session takes place at the ranch which comes with dust, mud, & more, so dress accordingly. If the sun is out, is also recommended that you bring a hat & water. Please avoid loose or dangling jewelry that could distract the horses or get in the way. (Please do not wear strong perfumes around the horses)
We accept PayPal, Venmo, checks or cash. We encourage you to contact your insurance provider to learn more about your coverage.
