EAGALA at a Glance
"Johnny has a natural ability to guide horses and humans into a relationship where one cannot deny obvious truths and discoveries about themselves. It is a unique gift to be able to see an opportunity of profound personal insight, whether in relation to self, others, family, or addictions, and then to create a scenario for nature to take its course toward personal growth."
— Kathy Rex, Executive Director SUWS Adolescent & Youth Program
