Meet the Herd

At EquiCatalyst Connections, our horses aren’t just part of the scenery—they’re co-facilitators in every session. Each horse brings their own personality, strengths, and healing presence. Get to know the four equine partners who help us create a safe, transformative space for growth.

Cruiser

Red & White Paint, Retired Cow Horse
Steady. Patient. Unshakable.
Cruiser may be our oldest partner, but his wisdom runs deep. A retired cow horse who can still stop on a dime, Cruiser now uses his steady gait and calm energy to help clients slow down, regulate, and connect with their own inner rhythm. He’s the go-to for nervous beginners, and his quiet confidence is contagious.

Shrimp

Sealbay Off-the-Track Thoroughbred (OTTB)
Sensitive. Observant. Insightful.
Shrimp is beautiful, thoughtful and a little shy, making her the perfect match for clients working through fear, anxiety, or body awareness. She’s a favorite for gentle walking sessions and enjoys jogging beside Ariel in the pasture. Every step with Shrimp builds trust, both in her and in oneself.

Atlas

Tennessee Walker
Playful. Curious. Boundary-Seeker.
Atlas is our youngest and most mischievous partner. He’s a Tennessee Walker with a goofy streak and a love for water—splashing in the trough is a favorite hobby. Clients who work with Atlas learn about energy, boundaries, and the courage to explore new ground. His curiosity and bold spirit help others safely explore theirs.

Cobalt

Sealbay Off-the-Track Thoroughbred (OTTB)
Gentle. Affectionate. Grounding.
Cobalt is the herd’s protector and a deeply affectionate soul. As an OTTB, he’s traded the track for cuddles, often choosing to stand quietly with clients as they process, breathe, or simply exist. He’s attuned to emotions and offers a steady, grounding presence for those who need to feel seen and safe.
