Meet the Equine Team

SPIRIT is our block horse gelding. He's the property greeter and loves to say hi to everyone.

Spirit seems to have found his place with teaching adults! He's an amazing teacher and participates in our adult programs.

You can read more about Spirit’s story on our store website here.

Stiletto is a bold, beautiful presence who brings her full personality into our programs…when she decides the timing is right that is! Often misunderstood as ‘stubborn,’ she actually calls for clarity, calm confidence, and purposeful intention from the humans around her. As our lead mare, she holds her ground with grace and power, and isn’t easily swayed.

Around here, we lovingly call her ‘Miss Sassy Pants.’

Mohawk may be small in size, but his personality is larger than life. Just don’t call him a ‘pony’, he prefers to think of himself as full-sized in every way that counts. His visits to retirement homes are pure magic, and he never hesitates to explore any open door, no matter how small the space.

Mohawk is a wise and playful teacher of boundaries, and he lights up when people meet him with true presence. He reminds us that simply being in the moment is sometimes the best way to connect.

Sage, our registered Appendix, is athletic, energetic, and excited to work in the EAL program. After just a month of observing the herd in their EAL work, she quickly understood the program!

Now, Sage takes her time in sessions and loves the brushes and gentle touches from participants. With a kind and fair approach, she’s become the sweetest, most delicate horse we’ve known.

Xenia is our gentle warrior princess. Her cues are subtle, and she prefers light handling, steering clear of herd drama. She takes time to warm up, but once she does, she loves cuddles. Independent yet deeply empathetic, she radiates quiet strength and endurance.

We’re still not sure how she magically appeared here—but we’re beyond grateful she did.

Kip is an "Elder" horse, whose calm and stable presence is invaluable to the herd’s well-being. He remains reliable and rational, staying out of drama while providing support when needed. Kip is a gentle, sensitive soul who quickly wins people’s hearts. His soft nature helps nervous individuals feel safe and at ease. We're lucky to learn from Kip and grateful for the wisdom, love, and comfort he brings to everyone around him.

Q is pure awareness—nothing stays hidden from him. He chooses his people and isn’t shy about letting you know when he’s not feeling it. Playful and full of character, he’s both calm and curious, fast and slow, depending on the moment.

Q loves feeling safe in his environment and, though he likes to think of himself as a ‘Spirit’, he’s still figuring it out.

This pink unicorn is truly one of a kind. She doesn’t do anything slowly—unless she chooses to. Blü is incredibly sensitive, kind, and an overall sweetheart. She’s very clear about when she wants to be touched—and when she doesn’t.

With a subtle sense of humour, she keeps us smiling. Blü, you’re such a blessing to have around. Thank you for all the entertainment you bring simply by being your authentic self!

Elvis has been with us for a long time and is Betty's full brother. When he first arrived, it felt like a piece of Betty had returned.

Elvis truly loves this work and is a consistent teacher. He’s dedicated to the job but also loves his scratches! His clear body language helps people feel at ease. We're grateful for the patience and persistence he brings every day. Thank you, Elvis!

Stay tuned for his story…
