ABOUT US
Equine Elegance
Founded by Arianna Suto
My journey into equine-assisted learning began with a personal mission to help others while forging meaningful connections with our majestic animals. As a mother of three, a full-time doctoral student, and an Equimotional Wellbeing Coach, I’ve witnessed the profound impact equine-assisted programs can have on individuals, particularly through my experience with my son. His diagnosis of Autism and PICA inspired us to embark on a transformative journey.
Equine Elegance LLC is a premier equine-assisted learning facility that specializes in Equimotional Wellbeing Coaching. We are committed to partnering with horses to provide enriching experiences for children, adults, and families. Our programs are designed for a wide range of participants, including those navigating emotional well-being challenges, developmental disabilities, recovery from addiction, or healing from past trauma.
In addition to our wonderful offerings, my family and I are deeply committed to rehabilitating horses in need of permanent homes. We train and care for them, preparing them to become trusted, compassionate partners for individuals from all walks of life. Watching these horses thrive as they support our clients brings immense fulfillment to us.
In my spare time, I continue to pursue further education, enjoy moments with my family, mentor young people as a 4-H equine project leader, and express my passion for dressage riding.
Thank you for the opportunity to share my journey with Equine Elegance.

F.I.X. Code Sessions
Sit back, relax, close your eyes and follow the guided instructions. The F.I.X. Code is an advanced technique that eases emotional blocks and trauma.
We remove the emotional response to a specific memory of a past traumatic event so well that when you think about what happened to you, you can't think about the horrible way you feel right now. It's as if it happened to someone else.
Years of implementation and thousands of lives changed have proven that the F.I.X Code changes lives immediately. The far-reaching effects of one changed life are infinite.
