This graphic from Equitation Science International, explains why sleep is so important for horses. We can see all the horses here from our house therefore we know if they are sleeping or not. If training horses aren't sleeping, we do our best to help them do so. This usually means finding the best companion for them to feel safe with in a strange place, or moving to a different paddock. We worry about clients horses more than our own!

What a change in this young lady! She’s a different horse now that she understands what’s required of her. She stood quietly for ages while Richard showed the delighted owners her progress. And she can now have her feet trimmed, something that couldn’t be done before she came here.

If you're a Friesian lover, this one is for you! Gorgeous Tori is only 2 years old and she is quite magnificent. She's here to be socialised and learn some boundaries. She just loves people and is so curious, intelligent and playful but she must learn that people aren't toys. She is really coming around to the new rules now that she has been here for just over a week. We do this in a consistent, persistent and kind way with no adrenaline rushes, using calming techniques which will enable her to keep her natural curiosity and love of people without becoming stressed or fearful.

Groots third ride. He’s still figuring out how to turn while carrying a rider and going forward all at the same time but working it out calmly. #nofearbasedtraining #bitlessriding #welfarefirst #noroundyard #balancebeforespeed #agoodpark #passivefocustechnique #stressfree #welfarefirsttrainer #horsetrainer #horsetraining #stopontrack #nocostumerequired #freeformtreelesssaddles #freeformtreelesssaddle

Maggie and Oliver about to go out for a ride with our @freeformsaddles_au treeless saddles. They fit all the different shaped horses and are very comfortable for us. These are our two old Classics but we also have a couple of new ones for people to try including the very secure Trail saddle #horsetraining #welfarefirsttrainer #stressfreetraining

I’m posting this video as a post instead of a reel because it gets cut off at one minute grrrr

There is no excuse for horses coming back from the trainer with wounds or a sore body! #welfarefirsttrainer #passivefocustechnique #nofearbasedtraining #horsetrainer #FreeformTreelessSaddles #

Richard is asked why he doesn’t use a round yard for horse training
