ā€œMy 8yo had her first lesson today, following some equine therapy and a little birthday party in march that she has had here as she lives horses. She is neurodiverse and struggles with much in life, but oh my goodness she was so happy during her lesson! Lia had the perfect approach with her, and for a little girl who is normally so anxious, she just smiled the whole time! Next lesson already booked, thank you! ā€
