Empowering Growth Through Education & Equine Connection
Where education, horses and meaningful connection come together.
The Story Behind Alkira Adina Equestrian
I started out as a passionate teacher, determined to make learning meaningful for every student. After seeing how many children struggled in traditional classrooms, I wanted to create a space where creativity, confidence, and connection could thrive.
That vision became Alkira Adina Equestrian. A place where people aged 4 and up learn and grow alongside horses through education, horsemanship, and personal development.
Based in the Fleurieu Peninsula, we are proud to be a local team of educators, therapists, and equine professionals, committed to creating a safe, engaging, and ethical learning environment.
