Whispering Pines Farm

11/04/2024

Everyone loves to paint Prince! All of our ponies are sweet, gentle, and have been exposed to all the typical party stuff- bouncy castles, water slides, roller coasters, bubble machines, you name it!

In addition, we have several ponies who love this extra bit of pampering and we love providing this unique experience to our clients!

So what is pony painting? We use tempera paint sticks and color the pony as much or as little as desired! The paint is non-toxic, gentle, and washes off easily with soap and water! Everyone loves this part, especially the pony being painted! Often, they will fall asleep 🥰🥰🥰 Pony painting is included with most of our packages and is our most popular add-on! We are now accepting limited booking in December and January, message us today to get on the calendar! ❤️

HOMESCHOOLERS!!!

We have several weekday morning openings for lessons! Message us for more info and to secure your child’s slot! ❤️

Here at WPF Horsemanship, we teach classical horsemanship- the concepts we teach can be applied to any discipline, with any tack! We learn not just riding basics but other aspects like catching, getting the horse ready, basic care, and any other lessons tailored for your child’s personal goals!

So what is classical horsemanship???

The basic aids of the classical approach to riding are based on the biomechanics of the horse rather than on controlling the horse. These aids form a basis of communication in which horse and rider listen to each other’s bodies and movements to create a harmonious flow. Through this flow, the rider guides the horse through subtle swirls and sways and horse and rider become one.

A rider-centered approach, on the other hand, uses the rider’s firm external control—pulling, muscle tension, aggression–to contain and oppose the horse’s motion.

Working in classical horsemanship makes the horse very calm and eager to learn. It also keeps the horse healthier and extends its riding lifetime.

The classically-trained rider guides the horse with gentle aids. The focus of riding is on detailed, accuracy, understanding and a healthy communication with the horse. Horse and rider both have a pleasurable riding experience and become companions in riding.

Do I have any friends who are QuickBooks saavy who I could pay for your time to show me how to do this? I bought it, didn’t understand it, tried to go back to my original bookkeeping method and iT IS ToO MuCh I’m LoSiNg mY bRaIN (pop! Its gone, there it went)

Send help! Taxes for 2023 are done but I don’t want to do that ever again 😂😂😂😂

OR anyone have any user friendly options? I just need expenses, income from multiple streams, possibly invoices (but I can create them the way I always have if needed)

We are pleased to introduce new arrival (Prince) Philip! He is going to take a bit to settle in and get some vet care but we are so excited to have another PURE WHITE unicorn for your parties and events! Philip will also be used in our lesson program! ❤️✨

We teach our beginner horsemanship lessons with this in mind. We start out in a halter with reins, graduate to a sidepull and finally ending in a snaffle. Our students learn to recognize the feel of pressure created by the hands and how to offer the horse the release at the precise moment to reinforce communication and encourage partnership versus control. ❤️
