Founder & Creative Director, Voice for the Horse
Songwriter • Author • Humane Education Advocate Yvonne Allen is the founder and creative director of Voice for the Horse. Her work is shaped by more than fifteen years of experience in equine-centered practice, equine-assisted wellness, humane education, and values-based facilitation. By prioritizing listening—to horses, to children, and to the quiet truths that emerge in relationships—her approach is grounded not in instruction, but in presence. In 2017, Yvonne was inducted into the World Massage Festival Hall of Fame in Cherokee, North Carolina, acknowledging her significant contributions to equine and therapeutic work. She is also a certified Virtues Project™ International Facilitator, promoting restorative dialogue and character-centered learning. Today, she leads the creative direction of Voice for the Horse, fostering original music, storytelling, and educational initiatives that honor the horse as a teacher while emphasizing emotional learning and the importance of relationship as the foundation for meaningful change.
