Qigong Infused Yoga
with Horses & Jana Reynolds
Qigong Infused Yoga is a gentle practice that pairs graceful movement with the natural rhythm of the breath. Experience the flow and exchange of life energy through this meditation in motion and feel naturally grounded and at peace through the presence of horses.
Jana Reynolds is a mindfulness and meditation teacher, guide, and devotee. She defines mindfulness as appreciating the beauty in the details of one single moment and feeling connected to yourself and to life as a whole through that appreciation.

Stories in the Stable
Read with Horses
What better way to encourage your child to enjoy reading than by having them read to a horse? Why read to horses? Horses provide kids with a nonjudgmental environment so they can just sit back and enjoy reading out loud to them. Children then associate a positive experience they have reading to our horses, which reinforces that reading can be a fun and interactive experience. Talking to our horses about what they are reading also enhances their social skills.
​
Bring your own book, or borrow one of ours.

Art with Julianna
Out in the field with Horses
We are excited to offer a unique opportunity to connect with nature, horses, and fellow artists. This monthly art series will be led by local artist, Julianna Zito. Each session will be a guided yet casual lesson in observing and rendering the beauty of the equine form in an outdoor setting.
Whether you’re a beginner eager to learn or an experienced artist looking to refine your skills, this workshop will provide a supportive environment to develop your technique and connect with the equine stars of Bella Terra Stables.
