Come join me near Pendleton, OR for a unique clinic focused on dealing with challenges YOU face in riding out on the trail. Comment for more info! Rather than being based the entire time in an arena, it will mostly be out โon the trailโ with diverse terrain for us to ride over. You will be working with your horse on a variety of practical, real life situations using horsemanship principles and foundational communication. We will be addressing common situations people face while on the trail riding out and working as a group to help individual horses and riders navigate problems with feel, respect, trust and encouragement.

There are so many different dynamics in colt starting that can vary greatly between individuals and situations. Preparation that is broken down in small steps is key to building both understanding and trust.
Iโd helped start this filly a year ago, so this was a review session and she showed she retained a great deal of what we did then, but also maintained some opinions on certain aspects!
Establishing the initial fundamentals of quality forward motion and suppleness through the spine in relaxation is vital at this stage. The basis of true Response is based in mental and emotional โOKnessโ (understanding & trust) and is very different than Reaction or Resistance, even when the โright thingโ is being done.

๐ Donโt nag your horse! Horses prone to tolerance will become dull. They need you to be effective and allow moments of harmony. Preserve sensitivity and willingness instead of building heaviness and resentment. ๐ค๐ด
