About this class
Experience joy and friendship with llamas during llamas hiking & coaching in Biederbach - find peace, self-confidence and your own strength in contact with llamas.
This animal-assisted activity with our 5-7 llamas includes llama grazing & guide training & hiking in variable proportions, such as:
- approx. 30 - 45 min pasture visit with animal observation
- approx. 30 - 45 min coaching to lead llamas on the course
- approx. 30-45 min walking/hiking in nature with 2 llamas
Total duration approx. 2.5 hours
Walking with llamas in nature is possible for a minimum of 2 adults and only takes place if you can implement the skills and mindfulness you have previously learned in leadership training.
Other participants or individuals, children, seniors or people with disabilities are also welcome to join the llamas, then the program will change according to the needs and requirements of the participants. We stay within the fenced pasture area the entire time - we visit the llama pasture and do a little leadership training as well as running with llamas in the obstacle course on the pasture. Depending on the number of participants, the total duration of the activity will then be slightly shorter — approx. 1.5 to 2 hours.
What you’ll do in the class
PASTURE VISIT: When you first contact the 5 llama whales, the basics are explained: llamas are curious, intelligent and alert, llamas are long-distance animals and escape animals and do not like touching or petting.
With explanations, you will learn to closely observe the behavior of llamas and flock and understand how llamas communicate with each other.
Some llamas show off their skills and games that they have learned with clicker training.
Depending on the season, you may be able to feed the llamas with hazelnut branches or pine branches.
In MINDFUL GUIDANCE COACHING, we first practice the various leadership techniques from Camelidynamics among us people in partner exercises, to guide a llama clearly and safely in various situations with the help of subtle impulses.
You then guide a llama over simple obstacles on the course within the fenced area.
Successful mindful management of llamas includes: being mindful and respectful with llamas, not petting llamas, not touching, just enjoying their closeness. For you as a llama leader, it is important to:
- Your balanced and competent body expression
- That you can walk and run well
- A normal mobility
- Your inner mental positive attitude
- A clear technique of keeping a leash and giving subtle impulses to communicate
- A loving inner connection and friendship that you feel with your llama
Only then will the llama trust you, feel safe and run relaxed in nature. There is no claim to a llama migration; successful hiking is the result of your sensitive, clear leadership.
Walking and HIKING IN NATURE with 2-3 llamas is only possible for adults and if suitable for safely leading a llama after preliminary exercises.
With llamas, we move calmly, friendly and consistently in nature. Vamos — let's go together!
When running, we remain silent and pay attention to ourselves, the llama and nature - important questions that arise are of course discussed.
If more than 2 people take part in the complete package, then walking in nature with llamas on a leash is only possible for 2 adults, and we select competent and motivated participants for this, the other guests quietly walk along in the group without a llama.
However, when visiting pastures and during leadership training, all participants can be in contact with the llamas and learn how to lead people and animals and lead a llama on the course.
If you want to come alone to see the llamas, you are welcome to come for pasture visits and guide training, because we only go hiking outside with llamas for a minimum of 2 people.
As a farewell, we will have a joint feedback session and talk about our experiences.
In the event of heavy continuous rain, storms, extreme heat, heavy snow or severe frost, the time of day will be changed or the entire appointment rescheduled in consultation with you, if possible.
Who is the class suitable for?
Every beginner can learn how to manage llamas competently during the course; previous experience with other large grazing animals or horses can be an advantage.
Walking with llamas in nature is possible for a minimum of 2 adults who have previously learned good leadership skills and the ability to lead safely and mindfully through coaching!
Participation for children is useful from the age of approx. 4-5 years, if they have the ability and understanding to be calm with the llamas and to stand still while watching and keep their hands down - please no stroking a llama!
Only registered people are allowed to attend the activities, i.e. no other accompanying persons and no dogs.
