We offer equine facilitated learning, personal and professional development, team building, coaching, learning & development, and other unmounted equine-assisted services. Plus, you can access equine assisted therapy with our partners at Animal Assisted Therapy of the Mountain Communities.
We partner with horses for empowerment and growth while respecting the autonomy of our equine counterparts. Our horses are not tools to use, but colleagues in our work and companions in our play.
Whether you’re seeking personal growth, team building, professional development, or mental health therapy, our services offer tailored solutions for all ages and needs.
Discover the transformative power of horse-human connection. Through guided ground-based interactions with our intuitive equine partners, you’ll gain profound insights into yourself, your communication style, and your relationships with others. Our sessions provide a unique space for personal growth and self-discovery in the present moment.
Transform your team’s dynamics through the wisdom of the herd. Horses provide immediate, honest feedback on leadership presence, communication clarity, and team cohesion. Experience breakthrough moments that translate directly to workplace success as you and your colleagues engage in unique challenges that can only be solved through authentic collaboration.

She prioritized safety up front which made me feel safe to really connect with the horses. It was a beautiful experience all around that is hard to put exactly into words! Would highly recommend! Shannon Drew2023-05-05Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was an experience I will never forget! I was skeptical that an activity with horses could to anything to improve my business, but the women's group I worked with did just that. Ellen creates a safe, welcoming, no pressure environment that allows for reflection and conversation in ways that just can't happen in a Zoom room or an office. There's something special about petting, brushing, even just observing these big, beautiful creatures that forces you to be present and think about things differently. It's hard to explain, but I'm certain that bringing the whole team out would lead to better collaboration and better ideas because working with Ellen and the horses would allow them to get to know each other and how they work in new ways. Heather Biggers2023-05-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ellen is amazing and creates such a safe space. The horses are super sweet to be around and offer such amazing stillness and love. Totally made my weeks brighter.

Both of my daughters look forward to riding lessons and have learned so much from Ellen over the years. One of my girls is very cautious and Ellen is always amazingly patient and has helped to build her confidence. I can’t say enough good things about Leg Up Learning Solutions.

My kids loved caring for the horses and getting to ride Lauren Allar2022-12-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My daughter has been riding with Ellen for just over a year now and it has been such an amazing experience. The space they create is safe, welcoming, and loving. The horses are, of course, wonderful. They all have their own personalities and it has been a joy to get to know them as well. I highly recommend Leg Up Learning!!! Courtney Kirman2022-12-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ellen is a wonderful instructor. Her horses are so sweet, delightful, and a pleasure to ride. I love taking lessons here, as an adult that hasn’t ridden in many years, Ellen has made getting back in the saddle a truly wonderful experience. Dylan Daughenbaugh2022-12-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ellen has so much equine knowledge. I loved coming to visit and learn about horses - being able to pet and feed them was fun as well ask asking all my questions. I need to visit again !
