Challenge U Experiential Coaching
Committed to partnerships that support people in developing skills, experiences and practices to create the life of their purpose and passion.
What do we mean by “coaching”?
Coaching is a way of working with people that empowers them to have the results they want. Effective coaching produces long-term excellent performance and supports people in being self-generating, self-correcting and self-sustaining.
Challenge U Approach:
We at Challenge U believe that in order for change to occur, we need to be willing to risk, challenge old patterns at an emotional and experiential level and be willing to practice the necessary actions to put in place new beliefs, new habits, and new possibilities. It is said you can’t solve a problem with the same mind that created it: you can‘t create a new life, new outcomes, and new viewpoints with the old thoughts in play.
Our cutting edge coaching facilitates individuals to higher levels of awareness, potential and success through experiential formats using our equine co facilitators, the ropes course, a series of learning assessments and of course, our master human coaches. The team at Challenge U offers over 40 years of working with people in experiential formats to support reaching their highest potential, balance and life skills to increase personal and professional satisfaction.
Coaching for Personal Growth, New Direction, through Transition
Many of the individuals that we work with are in transition. They are searching for a greater sense of purpose and passion, wish to become more powerful and self-directed, want to evolve spiritually, and desire a deeper connection to self, others and the world around them. They desire to live an authentic and congruent life!

Equine Experiential Coaching Program for Personal and Professional Development
Why horses?
Horses offer humans an opportunity to understand and learn a deeper way of “being” in the world. Horses embody power, grace and a highly tuned instinct. A horse’s survival depends on its ability to sense any incongruence in its environment and respond appropriately. In the herd, horses naturally trust their instincts and are attuned to the moods and body language of others.
During our coaching program and your interaction with our teaching horses, you get to see how you interact in your relationships; learn about how you communicate, how you receive feedback, and what you do with that feedback. The horses will empower you to listen to the wisdom of your body, the information in your heart and gut and how to continue to open up and access that information. It is in our heart and gut where we hold the answers we are seeking. Imagine being able to “know” those answers and tap into them as a true resource to live your life by. Horses are a non-judgmental mirror of the gifts, challenges and areas where we are ready to grow as a person. They teach us to become more emotionally, physically and mentally aware.
All programs include a special blend of life coaching processes and work with the horses to help you reach greater levels of mind/body awareness, presence, and ignite your authentic self.
