I had a beautiful experience with the horses and the staff with insightful exercises and thought-provoking activities, all while being given the opportunity to interact with the gentle and friendly animals at my own pace. Highly recommend and would love to visit again for a date night or ladies night!

StoneAges Customer Service and Sales Team participated in a team building event with Horse Empower. Kim and her team put together a personalized session with the horses that related to our roles at StoneAge.Our team was fully engaged and had incredible takeaways to share.I would highly recommend Horse Empower for your next Team Building Experience!

My journey to learn how to ride a horse was met with Kims kind and professional guidance. Kim has taught me as much about myself as she has about the horse. I love how she balances my goals and interests in each lesson, allowing me to learn at my own pace. Shes a wealth of information, yet so humble and patient. This has been a great experience!

Ladies Night at Horse Empower is a must attend event! Kim and Lauren provided an evening full of laughter, fun, and superb entertainment! Fantastic networking event and worth every penny!

It is hard to find the right words to match the appreciation I have for Kim and her team at Horse Empowerment. My daughter has been attending lessons for a few months now and her transformation has been wonderful! She truly leaves each lesson feeling empowered and ready to take on all the life challenges. Kim, Lauren and Sophie are true role models of friendship, kindness, and strong woman that my 10 year old absolutely adores. Each of them bring another level of opportunity for my daughter to gain personal growth from simply spending time around them and the horses. They have a way of teaching her life skills through horseman ship and riding that is magical. I honestly feel more prepared as a mother how to get my daughter through her teenage years now that I have Horse Empowerment on my side!

Ladies Night was to a fun time for women to chat and talk about their lives while working with horses. It’s their time to just relax, and honestly, it’s almost more of a therapy session than anything else.

I can not say enough good things about Horse Empower.  My daughter arrived wanting to spend time with horses and learn to trail ride all with a goal of one day owning her own horse.  Kim and her staff immediately made her feel welcome. They are kind, fun, knowledgeable and professional. Providing an environment where my daughter feels safe to make mistakes and try and explore new things.  Her self confidence grows every time she spends time at Horse Empower! All under the umbrella of HORSES, HORSEMANSHIP AND RIDING. My daughters and my dream come true!I have an add on regarding Youth Leadership Camp 2020. This program is a gift to our middle school age youth in our community, affordable and a stellar experience. Benefits I saw for my daughter... a deeper understanding of herself and others through the lens of her social style. This helped improve her self esteem, self confidence and personal empowerment! Thank you Kim, Jen and Lolo!!!

Such an amazing experience!!

It takes a special type of animal to succeed as a therapeutic riding horse. These horses must be well-mannered, quiet, sound, and forgiving, among many other traits. Not all horses that seemingly fit this profile, however, can withstand the stress associated with carrying riders that have mental and/or physical disabilities. My gratitude and appreciation for Horse Empowerment, Kim Hardesty and my trusty steed Rockie who have helped me gain so much during this stressful COVID post lockdown recovery time as well my own physical limitations that we have worked through. Thanks Kim & Rockie!!

Our office spent a day of team building with Kim and her staff. It was extremely beneficial as we learned about personality traits and how we can better communicate with our patients and our staff. Its a great venue and her workshops are not only informative but a lot of fun!

Kim and her horses are a pure gift to the Durango community. Our family is overwhelmed by the care, compassion, love and kindness that we experience every time we go to Horse Empower. We have observed our child have a powerful and organic connection with the horses which has been the most grounding and mindful experience. It is a true blessing to watch our child connect on such a deep level with such majestic beings.

Spend a day with my colleagues and shared a wonderful experience!! Thanks for an amazing, impactful day!
