HORSEMANSHIP TRAINING DAYS
focusing on understanding horse behaviour
If you would like to understand more about why horses behave the
way they do, or want to learn how to be more effective in the
way you handle a horse, this day is for you.
We will work on general horse handling and on identifying particular
areas of concern for our participants. We will start with "ground
work" (unmounted), such as putting on the halter or bridle,
leading, and improving the horse's "manner" when you
are around him. We will then progress to asking for specific tasks,
such as picking up his feet, lungeing, long reining or free jumping.
For those who want to ride, the amount & level of riding will
depend on each person's needs, working on improving the rider's
balance and effectiveness, as well as a better understanding or
horse behaviour in an effort to be able to prevent those "scary
moments" we all have. You may use one of our reliable school
horses, or bring your own.
Cost is $50 (prepaid) for 3 hours
