NHN radio presents Chris Irwin

Chris has pioneered his own evolutionary approach to the innovative field of equine work originally known as EAP, or Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy. EAP saw round pens replace couches as horses were introduced into therapy sessions to catalyze the human psyche into facilitating emotional healing. Chris Irwin is much more than just a horse trainer. His unique path in life of turning tragedies into triumphs has led him to become a truly gifted communicator. Now, as a cutting-edge personal coach, Chris inspires and facilitates his students to learn how to harness their inner horsepower through ongoing workshops in Equine Assisted Personal Development. From corporate leadership workshops to parenting and teaching skills, mentoring for disadvantaged youth, therapeutic programs and even the prison system, the scope and impact of Chris' message on how "horse sense can benefit human potential" is reaching far beyond the borders of the horse industry. As the San Diego Union-Tribune wrote, "Forget Robert Redford and The Horse Whisperer. With Chris Irwin, think Dr. Phil for horses. Better yet, think Dr. Phil for horse owners and riders." Or as the Toronto Star wrote, "Chris Irwin is a man on a mission — to change the way we communicate with each other, one horse at a time."
