About Us

You Yangs Equine was founded by Fiona Bennett after dreaming for many years to share her horses and the wisdom they provide to all. Fiona wanted to do this in a non riding capacity as she felt that many of the lessons she had learned with her horses had been on the ground, not always in the saddle. Understanding that riding is not for everyone, she has now found a way to provide an opportunity for anyone to learn from horses through Equine Assisted Learning.

After discovering Equine Assisted Learning and heading off to the Equine Psychotherapy Institute In Mt Prospect to do her training to become an Equine Assisted Learning Practitioner, she has now opened the doors to You Yangs Equine. 

Fiona is supported by her niece, Michaela who helps with EAL sessions and everything else to do with the wellbeing and care of our herd. Michaela is an experienced disability support worker and horsewoman who has a natural love of all animals.  Both Fiona and Michaela are passionate about sharing the awesomeness of their herd with people. 

You Yangs Equine truly believes that Equine Assisted Learning is a service that is incredibly beneficial to all.  It is such a privilege to be able to spend time with horses.  Fiona and Michaela are proud of their horses and know that they are safe, sensible and supportive. They will enjoy meeting you!
