RE+ HORSEMANSHIP... Kim Rose
*Lessons *Coaching *Clinics
*Training (Western Performance-Start to Finish)
I have had the opportunity to learn from some GREAT horsemen (Jordan Larson, Dean Latimer, JayDee Anderson, Clay Webster, Sage Sapergia, Loris Epis to name a few) These horsemen, (who learnt from other great Horsemen), were willing to pass on their knowledge and experience. Now, I want to sha

re my knowledge and experience to encourage, equip and empower others to reach their full potential. I love the western performance disciplines (especially reining) and have a keen interest in horse and human behavior and believe HORSEMANSHIP is more than just a program of proper technique. It involves an "ALL IN" active relationship that meets the needs of both the horse and rider. It’s going beyond the physical, and considering the thoughts, will and heart of each individual. It's helping each other, "be the best they can be" in everything we do. People Helping Horses...
...Horses Helping People

I have always loved horses. They have been a part of my life since I was eleven. Through life’s good times and bad, being around horses always made things better. Working with horses has taught me to be a better person in the arena & in life.

“After all, the qualities required to be good with horses are the same qualities required to be good at life in general, & vice versa.” ― Mark Rashid, Horsemanship Through Life

"Agree wholeheartedly with each other, love one another, and work together with one mind and purpose. Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves. Don’t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too.” Philippians 2:2-4

Rememberance Day has me still reflecting and grateful.

So here's a sappy appreciation post. Sorry!!

To everyone who has come to the RE+ or has asked me for help with your horse... Thank you!

I've been doing this for 5 yrs now and I still
dont believe in myself as much as you do! ... I have learned so much from teaching people and training horses. Thank you for your trust!! I am so grateful!

I like to stay hidden LOL But, I have had so many amazing opportunities come to me that stretched me out of my 1 on 1 comfort zone: I've been able to watch kids grow up and develop their horsemanship skills and passions in 4H, and I've also been able to share my experiences with a womens group (that will forever leave a mark on my heart) as we talked about trust, relationship, respect, boundaries and overcoming challenges/obstacles and how it applied to life.

I've had some people and horses come here that were labeled or defeated and we have tackled the lies and fears they believed and worked on building confidence. The skill and maneuvers just came with clarity.

To all those that board or haulin here, sent horses for training here or have bought a horse or taken a lesson or mini session here... Thank you, its never been about business... I've made many friends, I've been able to give back to my community and others in need (10% of all RE+ income). I've been able to enjoy what I love most... people and horses...

I'm a better person and horsewoman because of you. ❤️

May I always remember those that make this possible.
(and Thank you, Lord, for this grand adventure) I can't wait to see what next year brings.

Good reminder!
We all have those bad days, keep your chin up!

Don’t let one bad day turn to a bad week …

Fun times!

100% agree!

That's why methods like Flooding are absolutely detrimental and can only create a state of Learned Helplessness...

Last year, Shine had to learn to be a cowhorse on short notice. This year, she had to step up to the Open bridle classes... The challenge looked very intimidating, but we took our time and chipped away at it...

We entered 3 shows and got 3 paycheques and Shine added another $1114 to her earnings.

The last show was definitely the most rewarding. Mykenna had hardly ridden all year because her mare had a foal and she missed showing! So she catch rode Shine in Ponoka and won the aggregate in the ASHA Youth 14-18 boxing ! To say I'm a proud momma is an understatement!

Thanks for the rides Shine.
Thanks to my friends and family who are the best encouragers.
Thanks to Dale Clearwater for the help and coaching
And thanks to my hubby for the amazing support and farrier work!
Forever grateful, and feeling blessed! 🙏✝️

Very true!

SLOOOOOW DOWN!

SLOW your walking down to 1 step per second with and without your horse next to you.
SLOW your hand movements down as you touch or do things.
SLOW your talking down.
SLOW your breathing down.
SLOW your pulls and pushes down on the leadrope.

SLOW to FLOW!

Humans are WAAAAY to fast for horses and this is one of the leading causes of reactivity and opposition reflex in horses.

Speed = stress.

Let me teach you what speed does...

When the brain perceives a threat, it causes the body to release the stress response hormone cortisol. Cortisol levels and speed go hand in hand.
Cortisol provides the body with the fuel it needs to flee a scary situation or fight against it.

The thing with the mind-body relationship is that the brain feels an emotion such as fear, which create a physical response in the body, but the body can also move at a certain speed or in a particular way and create an emotion in the brain. It can be reverse engineered.

This is how special the intimate relationship is between the brain and body.

The other thing to remember is that, collectively as a social animal, when speed is noticed by another mammal (no matter the species), it alerts the unconscious brain to threat.

Speed is an alarm system in a social system (consciously and unconsciously).

If you walked down a road and everyone started running, you'd find it hard not to run even if you didn't know what the cause was. You are noticing that others are running and in a direction, so you mirror them to increase your chances of survival. You don't need the reasoning part of your brain for this. You just activated your primal (survival) part of the brain.

One other thing to remember: HORSES CAN SMELL CORTISOL. So not only does your speed act as a visual alarm system to your horse, it also acts as an olfactory one!

Would you want to interact with someone who caused you to feel constantly on alert?

These little things are the beginnings of what ripples into chronic stress in both humans and horses.
You spend enough time around someone who is fast in their movement, your nervous system will condition itself to being on high alert.
HELLO 👋 CHRONIC STRESS!!!

Slow your movement down = slow your thoughts down.
Slow your movement down = lower your cortisol.
Slow your movement down = feel connected with yourself, the world and others in it.
Slow your movement down = slow your alarm systems down and eventually they'll turn off.

Slow down so much that it is uncomfortable. It won't be uncomfortable for long, I promise 😉

Happy brain training 🧠
Charlotte 🙂

Things like this always intrigue me!

“When the body is under stress, it begins to select and choose where to put resources. It will put those resources towards vital organ and body functions long before it puts them toward muscle stamina and endurance. By the time the owner notices this stress response, the horse's performance is already significantly impacted. It's better to be proactive about nutritionally supporting the horse ahead of time to ensure the body has what it needs to function at full capacity.” - Episode 41 of

Our Vision...

Tim and I love to help people and horses.

20 years ago, we had a dream of creating a horse facility that we could share with others. Last year, we had the opportunity to RETHINK this dream as we shared our passion/vision with others. This year, we took a step in faith and our dream became REALITY.

We thank God for bringing us to this place. “With God all things are possible” Matthew 19:26

WHY is it named the RE+ ? … There are a lot of words that start with RE+. When we started to create the vision of what we wanted. These were some of the positive descriptive words that came to mind:

REST RELAX RETREAT RECHARGE RESOLVE RENEW REFOCUS RESPECT RESTORE RELATIONSHIP

The RE+ ARENA is … Created, in honor of our parents, to share and be a blessing to others. A place where people can come to RELAX and enjoy horses. A positive (+) atmosphere that encourages, equips and empowers people through horsemanship

RE+ HORSEMANSHIP … I have always loved horses. They have been a part of my life since I was eleven. Through life’s good times and bad, being around horses always made things better. I have had the opportunity to learn from some GREAT horsemen. These horsemen, who learnt from other great Horsemen, were willing to pass on their knowledge and experience to those who wanted to learn better horsemanship. Now, I want to share what I have learnt with others. I believe the lessons I have learned from working with horses has taught me to be a better person in the arena & in life. I believe horsemanship is more than just proper technique. It involves a relationship that meets the needs of both the horse and rider. It’s going beyond the physical and considering the thoughts, will, emotions and heart of each individual in everything we do.

Our FAMILY… Again, We love helping people!

We have worked with people and horses in a variety of areas, from teaching lessons at Kid’s Camp to training colts and problem horses to managing a Boarding Stable in Regina.

We moved to Lumsden, SK in 2015, and have enjoyed “stepping into it’s country pace”

Kim received her Diploma as a Veterinary Technician and worked for Sherwood Animal Clinic before starting a family. She currently helps as Secretary/Treasurer for the Saskatchewan Reining Horse Association and loves the Sport of Reining.

We have 4 kids – 2 boys and 2 girls :)
