Introduction to the Horse

This brand new program takes a child or adult through a progression that will
equip both the horse and rider for a potentially fabulous experience.
Built on a foundation of intuitive listening, feel, good communication, trust
and respect, it all begins with a language you both can understand.
 
Start by learning how to approach a horse in the herd. Observe herd behavior
firsthand. How do you tell if a horse is safe to approach? How do you tell one
horse from the other? How do you handle a strange horse approaching you? How
do horses communicate with each other?
 


Horsemanship 101

Refresher from the Intro to the horse, this is a 4 hour course of understanding the horse,
learning the basic's on grooming, feeding, foot care and more are covered. Get to know
each other on the ground. Develop trust and respect through ground exercises. Approach and
Retreat, and moving the horse around through Pressure and Release. Get on and
off safely. Ride for the first time with “Feel” (being led, no saddle, no reins).
Breathe, relax, move with the horse. Now add the saddle and a halter and start riding safely
and with confidence. You can do this program with your horse or work with one of ours.
