“I just want to say thank you. The Challenge-U course was an amazing experience for me both personally and professionally. I did things that I thought I would not be able to accomplish. I believe that I am a much better person for having this experience. Thank you for such a life altering experience.

“Mission Bay High School chose Challenge-U to solidify teaching teams, overcome obstacles and enhance communication for teachers. In a total of eight hours all three goals were met. Andi and her staff were awesome in providing emotional, mental and physical safety. At no point did anyone on our staff feel pressured to do something they were not comfortable with. Everything was a “challenge by choice”. I cannot say enough about the Challenge-U program and believe its worthwhile for every meaningful group to be a part of to improve communication, trust, and a team that can move forward together”.

What Challenge U's Clients Say about Equine Experiential Learning Programs:

"Saturday will forever be a day I will never forget. The tools that I learned have really helped me, and have left me wanted to know more. The work you do is beautiful; it was a nice slow progression, and then the last exercise brought the entire day to a beautiful close. I appreciate your work and I am looking forward to the next opportunity."
D. Leclerc

"I contemplated my experience from the workshop for several days and watched for leadership behaviors that echoed my learning.  Thank you for offering the opportunity to immerse myself in a totally different experience.  I recommend it to everyone who really wants to discover how they lead and how they can improve."
Rod Kempton
Vice President, Education
Quattro Corporation

"As “the boss” it was freeing and empowering to be in a space of authenticity and vulnerability with subordinates. We experienced a tangible closeness as a team that was beyond anything we have experienced before. Many layers of “noticing” have been uncovered by each team member that will serve us well as we continue to grow personally and professionally as a cohesive whole.”
