A human approach in a different environment

Thinking outside the box to better understand each other

There are times when a team, a leader, or simply an individual needs to step outside their usual environment to look at their way of communicating, deciding, and acting in a different light.

It is in this spirit that Géraldine Vaillant is developing Équi-Sphère in Berny-Rivière, in the Aisne region. Her work combines support, mental preparation and, when it corresponds to the approach taken, interaction with the horse.

The natural setting and the presence of the animal create an experience far removed from traditional seminars. The horse is not interested in the title, the position, or the prepared speech: it reacts essentially to what it perceives in the moment.

Another way of approaching humanity, the collective, and performance.

Multiple needs, multiple approaches

Areas of support

Each intervention starts from a real situation: that of a person, a leader or a group.

01

Leadership

Observe his posture, his impact on others, his ability to lead, and the consistency between intention, behavior, and communication.

02

Team cohesion

Working on listening, interaction, cooperation and a group's ability to function more smoothly.

03

Mental preparation

Better understand the influence of thoughts, emotions, body and environment on decisions and behaviors.

04

Self-knowledge

Identify certain mechanisms, develop one's resources and regain a more serene capacity for action.

Equi-Sphere: Team building, leadership, and equine-assisted coaching

In equine-assisted coaching, the horse does not play a decorative role. Its presence and reactions can help to bring out certain attitudes, emotions and relational dynamics in a different way.

The horse as a learning partner

Why work with horses?

Horses are particularly attentive to their surroundings, reacting to attitudes, movements, and interactions. In a coaching setting, their reactions provide immediate feedback that can foster awareness and enrich the work done with the coach.

An immediate return. The interaction takes place in the moment, without prior theoretical discourse.
A different kind of communication: Non-verbal communication and posture take on an unusual importance.
An outside-company setting: Changing your environment often allows you to change your perspective on a situation.
A collective experience: The exercises can become a basis for dialogue and debriefing.
Raising awareness: The goal is to better identify certain modes of operation.
A personalized approach. The system depends on the objectives, the context and the participants.
"Stepping outside the usual framework sometimes allows us to see very clearly what had become invisible."

An evolving activity

Géraldine Vaillant: Equine-assisted coaching and mental preparation

The activity developed around Equi-Sphère is not limited to corporate seminars alone.

Géraldine also supports professionals, athletes and individuals with broader issues of self-knowledge, mental preparation and mobilizing their resources.

Mental preparation now occupies an important place in his approach: understanding the influence of his thoughts, his emotions and his environment in order to regain a more conscious and serene capacity for action.

A local presence, a very real business

In May 2025, La Gazette France devoted an article to Géraldine Vaillant and her equicoaching activity in the Soissonnais region.

The media outlet reported at the time that she had already conducted approximately 350 sessions with managers and employees.

In December 2025, Équi-Sphère once again hosted a professional team in Berny-Rivière for a day dedicated to cohesion and interaction.

Build a suitable program

A management or cohesion issue is never exactly the same as that of the neighboring company.

The best starting point is therefore to explain your context, the profile of the participants and what you really want to work on.
