Grace Running Wild Equine

Healing hearts through the gentle power of horses

Mission

Grace Running Wild Equine helps our community’s youth, veterans, and individuals experiencing trauma build confidence, emotional health, and life skills through the transformative connection between humans and horses.

In order to accomplish this we aim to:

  • Create safe space for alternate forms of therapy
  • Expose communities to the sentient power of the horse and nature
  • Enable experiential learning—hands-on work with horses and in nature stimulates brain development, critical thinking and problem solving, emotional awareness and regulation

“Pro-social” benefits

  • Communication and collaboration
  • Intentionality and goal-oriented behavior
  • Personal responsibility
  • Awareness of others
  • Self-reflection

What we offer

Equine-assisted therapy rooted in compassion, safety, and connection.

Therapy Sessions

One-on-one and small-group sessions tailored to emotional, physical, and social goals—with our trained team and gentle horses.

Experiential Learning

Hands-on work with horses and in nature that builds confidence, emotional awareness, and life skills in a supportive barn environment.

Each member of our herd brings a unique gift to the work we do together.

Sippi

Sippi

Quarter Horse Palomino Mare · 23 years

Sippi embodies who we are and what we want to share. Born deaf and now blind in one eye, she came to me as a wild 2 year old in 2005 when I was experiencing a tremendous darkness from childhood abuse. She was “broken.” I was lost. Together we learned, healed, grew, and flourished. Sippi is the perfect representation of God’s broken, imperfect, and yet wholly beautiful creation. She displays what He wants to do and make known in us.

Mags

Mags

Quarter Horse Bay Mare · 7 years

Mags is from the Beggs Cattle Company (https://www.beggscattleco.com/) which was established in 1876 and thrives today with honors of the AQHA Legacy Award and the Charles Goodnight award due to their contributions to preserve Western heritage and tradition still working cattle with horses and cowboys. She was originally acquired as a yearling to enhance the Perry Johns breeding program but her first interactions with a child showed her gifts went far beyond genetics. Mags is keenly intelligent, watching every move, incredibly inquisitive, often touching someone from head to toe upon introduction, and tremendously protective of her “herd.” She also seems to pass these characteristics on to her offspring!

Wicker

Wicker

Quarter Horse Buckskin Filly · 2 years

Wicker is the newest addition to the GRW remuda and comes from the historic Wicker Ranch (https://wickerranch.com/) which is led by matriarch, friend, avid horsewoman, and pioneer Ms Jean Jones. Wicker is a true representation of the founding Texas ranchers who raised horses that had to be physically tough and mentally resilient to survive harsh terrain, predators, and a long day’s work. Wicker draws you in with her “wild” and proud appearance, keen intellect, and willingness to face new experiences with her human companions fearlessly.
