Welcome to Horses & Heart Songs

HORSES & HEART SONGS ORIGINATED FROM A DEEP PASSION FOR HORSES, MUSIC AND THE MIRACLE OF THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE.

Horses & Heart Songs uses the Epona approach to combine the wisdom of horses with experiential learning and musical expression, and organizes workshops with and without horses, focusing on personal development and life coaching. Important principles are:

  • The message of the body
  • The wisdom of the horse
  • The information behind emotions
  • The power of the voice

The Epona approach was developed by Linda Kohanov, founder of Epona and author of The Tao of Equus, Riding Between the Worlds and Way of the Horse.

Sanna Heijnis is Epona Approved Instructor, singer-songwriter and lifelong horse person. She has a background in organization and communication, and is currently in training to become a psychologist.

Courses and Workshops

Epona Introductory Workshop - May 5/6, 2012

In this introductory two-day workshop we will explore the Epona principles in active interaction with the horses and each other. Emotions and body sensations as information, activating the authentic self, the power of intuition: we will find that these are not mere abstract concepts, but very real skills that horses naturally possess.
