The Equus Effect Program

The Equus Effect Program We teach veterans, first responders and ‘warriors from all walks of life’ how to wake UP and settle DOWN.

Through experiential learning with horses, body-based practices, insights into why we get stuck in habitual patterns and then, we help set you free! We also do one-on-one coaching, workshops and weekend retreats for men and women who want to rediscover their own "horse sense" and write new scripts for their futures.

The more we move away from nature, the more we suffer. When we are conditioned to overplay our left brain hemisphere, we do it at the expense of the right brain hemisphere.

Horses live in the right hemisphere and help us get back to the present.

How do you connect with nature when your left brain is in overdrive?

In this clip, Jane and Rupert Isaacson discuss the loss of curiosity at a societal level and how difficult it can be for us to feel compassion or resonance without it. Resonance involves us having to step into the unknown.

At The Equus Effect, we talk about awe a lot. When people arrive at the round pen, they don't know this big, strong creature. We are asked to be vulnerable in their presence. And how do we step into that space without openness and curiosity?

We are so excited to host Rupert's workshop on the TAKHIN Method this fall. Check out the link in bio to learn more about the event and join us! October 13 - 15 in Sharon, CT.

Stress doesn't begin as a thought. It begins in the nervous system.

We contract, brace, and scan for danger. The body holds the pattern long after the moment has passed, which is why talking about it isn't always enough.

So we start with the body, and let it find its way to the mind. It begins with interoception: noticing tension, numbness, heartbeat, temperature. Long before we prized the mind, we trusted the gut to survive. That older intelligence is still there, and it can be practiced.

Come back to your body. Body-based groundwork with horses in Sharon, CT. Link in bio.

We were thrilled to welcome the Troutbeck team to our round pen!

The team spent some time with Dutch, Babe, Blaze, and Lance working on getting grounded and into their bodies. Their work with the horses made our foundational principles come to life: resonance, connection, attunement, collaboration, and integration came naturally in their interactions.

Thank you for visiting!

Connection isn't a skill we pick up. It's the blueprint we arrive with.

Within minutes of being born, a baby reaches for the first meal. No one had to teach us that. Then we spend years learning about everything except ourselves — math, grammar, how to behave at the table. Rarely how to stay connected without giving something of ourselves away.

Little by little, we're trained away from what was natural and needed. We were meant to connect, not predict and protect.
Horses never left the blueprint. For the herd, the survival of one depends on the survival of all. That's what makes them such honest company.

Come back to your original blueprint with us in Sharon, CT!

📣 We have one spot left for our Inside the Equus Effect workshop on October 2 - 4 (you'll also be our guest at TEE's 12th Annual Event!). Link in bio.
