Our Work
Changing Gaits, Inc. in a Faith Based diversified Equine Assisted 
Addiction Services (EAAS) and is committed to teaching, guiding, and 
encouraging positive attitudes, behavior modification, and life skills 
by using a powerful, therapeutic approach though the healing bond with 
horses, not only for substance abuse, but also for individuals needing 
social interaction, problems with verbal and non-verbal communication, 
repetitive actions, etc. This also works well for teams to learn better 
ways to communicate. EAAS is based on OK Corral techniques, and is 
effective for all ages (children, teenagers, adults, families, groups) 
to learn:

Creative thinking, Assertiveness, Relationship building, Self-esteem, 
Problem solving, Leadership, Teamwork, Positive attitude, Verbal and 
non-verbal communication, Social interaction, and Repetitive actions.

Briefly, EAAS is an emerging field in which horses are used to assist 
for emotional growth and learning to address issues related to substance 
abuse, along with problems in communication, relationships, behavior, 
and all Life Skill issues (attached). It is a collaborative effort 
between a licensed therapist and a horse specialist who work together to 
design sessions that require the client to apply certain skills while 
participating in activities with the horse. EAAS is not riding or 
horsemanship: in fact, 90% of the activities with the horse take place 
on the ground and require the participant to apply certain skills, i.e., 
non-verbal communication, creative thinking, and problem solving through 
processing feelings, behaviors, and patterns. This form of therapy has 
been proven to bring faster results than traditional 
treatment/counseling alone, as the participants learn very quickly about 
themselves and are able to relate the exercises they perform with the 
horses to real-life situations. Some of the more than 200 exercises include:

Temptation Alley Obstacle Course: Involves leading a horse through an 
alley with the hay on one side and apples on the other side, without 
letting the horse eat. This activity is done without touching the horse. 
Helps determine the obstacles in our lives that keep us from being 
emotionally healthy.
Life's Little Obstacles: Leading a horse over a jump without touching or 
talking to it. Used to learn new ways of non-verbal communication.

Demonstrations are available - Call for details! Office 320-438-4001


We hope to see you out at the ranch having fun!!!  Thank you for your 
support and your help changing peoples lives.

God Bless You!!!

Sincerely,

Guy Kaufman
