Riding Between the Worlds: Expanding Our Potential Through the Way of the Horse

Linda Kohanov is an author, speaker, riding instructor, and horse trainer who specializes in Equine Experiential Learning and Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy. In 1997, she founded Epona Equestrian Services, a Tucson-based collective of riding instructors and counselors exploring the healing potential of working with horses. In addition to formal equine-facilitated psychotherapy sessions, Epona offers equine experiential learning programs in stress reduction, parenting skills, leadership techniques, consensus-building relationship models, mindfulness, intuition, creativity, sensory awareness, and women’s empowerment. Kohanov has fifteen years experience as a radio producer and announcer and has also worked as a music critic and print journalist, writing for such publications as CD Review, Down Beat, JAZZIZ, Jazz Times, Pulse! and New Age Journal. She lives with her husband, composer and musician Steve Roach, and their horses outside Tucson, Arizona.
