Embark on a transformative journey that promises personal growth and adventure as a volunteer at Sandwerf. Here,
in the heart of the African bush, the enchanting spirit of Joseph's Dream Stud awaits. Surrounded by the healing
silence of nature, you'll delve into the art of natural horsemanship. You'll have the opportunity to hone your
skills, assist in raising foals, and contribute to the training and rehabilitation of horses, including neglected
rescues.
In the daily care of 40+ stud horses, their foals, miniature horses, and Alpacas, you'll experience the profound
joy and liberating freedom of living and training horses force-free and with respect. Engage with the local
community's children, creating moments of healing and awareness. With the guidance of the ancient Namibian San
tribe's friendly and talented horse workers, you'll learn to communicate with horses using methods like Liberty,
Trust exercises, Clicker Training, and more, fostering a genuine connection.
Your accommodation in the brand-new Volunteer house, strategically perched for optimal views of paddocks, stables,
and the game waterhole, ensures a community-oriented experience. The house features eight modern rooms, each with
a king-size bed, private toilet, and shower. This limited-capacity setup, hosting a maximum of eight Equine
Volunteers, preserves the desired family atmosphere of your stay. Single chalets are available upon request for
those seeking a more solitary experience.
Whether you opt for a two-week minimum stay or extend your journey to a maximum of three months, the Joseph's
Dream Equine Volunteer Program promises a unique blend of skill development, new friendships, and contributions to
a nurturing team, fostering a lasting connection with the legacy of Sandwerf.
Feel the call to become a part of the Sandwerf legacy!
