Yesterday, I had a full on day with Molly doing a demo on how groundwork transfers to the riding and how it can be fun and practical too. Followed by back-to-back lessons with a lovely bunch of ladies, who were fun, receptive and understanding.
Thank you to all who attended via the Ludlow and District Riding Club and thank you to Julie for organising and looking after us all, all day. You were amazing!
Here's what a couple of participants said:
I thoroughly enjoyed the session with Debbie and she listened and made me feel comfortable and encouraging about what I was doing with Harley. I liked the guidance and no negativity at all. Will definitely be doing more to make our relationship stronger.

I have attended a couple of horsemanship clinics and the way Debbie gave her time to explain/demonstrate, the penny finally dropped in how to show my horse what I am asking from her. Really enjoyed today, just what we needed.

We had 4 fabulous days of training with our super trainer Joe Midgley Horsemanship. Learnt loads, and as usual came home inspired and thrilled. I didn't really want to come home, but we have lots of homework to do. We never stop learning and developing ourselves and our horses. Horsemanship is a journey and what a wonderful journey it is. Can't wait for the next time. 😍😁😄😃😄
Someone didn't like puddles, but now they love them
Teaching a 4 year old to become responsive, respectful and safe by getting control of the feet.
Safe enough to be handled by a little girl.
It always starts the basics

We had a really busy weekend. Two days of clinics. I met some lovely horses and their lovely owners, who were all receptive to learning more about the importance of understanding a horse/prey animal and learning the benefits of groundwork and how it all transfers to the riding.
We played with obstacles to give purpose and make it fun too.
Thank you to all who attended 😊🙌you all did an amazing job and I really enjoyed working with you all and your fabulous horses.

We took one of my lovely clients and her young horse to play in a round pen today. It's the first time this mare has been on a trailer journey or off her home property. We well so pleased with her attitude and behaviour.

12 months of horsemanship training and taking her slowly to mature mentally and physically has begun her journey the right way to become the go anyway, do anything horse.
Round pen work is so useful for connection, liberty, seeing where you need to build a stronger connection. Watching and observing your horse loose and seeing how they use themselves. All useful, interesting stuff.

I know I don't post many 'EXCITING' videos, but that's because the horsemanship/groundwork makes them relaxed, so here's a little clip of a a horse before and after.

Bridleless is fun and it's such a good way to discover how effective your seat and legs are. It's not about rein-addiction, it's about using your body to communicate what you want.
Groundwork is such an important part of the process. It's the beginnings of everything else, yes even the riding!

Bridling should be a nice experience
