If you are interested in joining me on my online course which is aimed at people who have a problem they can't solve with their horse or want to learn a way of training where the horse has as much out of the training as the trainer does or wants to start their young horse but doesn't know how to begin then sign up on my website and I will get back to you.

Many people in the horse world aren't aware of the way horses learn the most efficiently. Here is a sequence of training a horse who couldn't be caught because he would try and bit or kick the human.

The biggest horse training tip I could give anyone is try and keep your horse in a calm state when training. Even if they do something you really don't like.

To have a really lovely connection with a horse they have to feel safe and if everytime they do something undesireable you reprimand them then they are going to be confused and worried and that won't help them feel gentle.

If you only correct a horses behaviour and not address their feelings then you might have a horse that hides his feelings and then does something unexpected and you are more likely to get injured. As a horse trainer of over 35 years I have made more mistakes than most but I want to share what I have learnt.
