A Little About Us

Hello! I am extremely excited for you to be joining us here at The Healing Bit! I hope that this short page about us will compel you to join us for many years of blog posts to come!

In 2016 I began the journey to become a certified therapeutic horseback riding instructor. Shortly after passing all of my tests, I began to notice just how many lessons I was learning from my students, volunteers, and most importantly, horses. Wanting to share these moments with the world ,I began to blog. And as they say, the rest is history!

​

In 2018 I decided to leave my role as an instructor to begin working as a stable hand. I was extremely excited to learn that horses still had so much to teach me, even though my role with them had changed dramatically! 

​

Because of this, our mission statement and goals changed as well. From discovering what horses can teach us through therapeutic classes to unlocking the mysteries of what we can learn from them in our everyday lives.

​

I hope that you will enjoy these posts as much as I do preparing them for you!
