❌It’s not about the obstacle

❌It’s not about the competition

❌It’s not about the float/trailer

❌It’s not about the scary bushes

❌It’s not about the wormer

❌It’s not about the jump

It’s never about any of this...

I don’t really care if my horse does the thing or not.

✅What’s more important to me is the approach.

✅That I can help my horse when they are unsure.

✅That I can show my horse that I won’t force her.

✅That she has options

✅ That I can communicate lightly & politely

✅That she is allowed to say no...

I’m not willing to compromise on my values to “get the job done”. It’s important to me to stay true to myself and how I want my relationship to be with my horse. They’re not a robot or a slave.

You and I, and anyone really, are quite capable of MAKING a horse do something...forcing it even...I’ve been there- I didn’t know any better.

But where is the beauty, skill, empathy, and partnership in that?

The outcome is much sweeter, less stressful, and far more rewarding if you take your time, listen to your horse, and stay relaxed, calm and positive 😁
Kindly message me directly for more details if interested

A 7 year old Blue Roan TWH that stands 15.1hh and is broke !

He will ride in a group or out alone. He will cross water, go over logs, lead the pack or stay in the back.

He loads great, stands tied, lifts his feet, and is just a gentle kind soul. He is shod all the way around.

He can be a bit hard to catch if let you have him in a big field. I would not put an absolute beginner on him because this horse can turn it on in a shot. He will go slow if you want him to, but you need to know those cues.

He has also been vet checked already!

Delivery is available shipping send me a pm if you are interested in getting him.

We spent so much time⌚ , money 💰and research😱 trying to improve our horses health and fitness

But what if you're missing a huge part of equations?😯

THE RAIDERS FITNESS

I believe that it's our job as equestrian riders to be the best versions of ourselves both mentally and physically so we can make our horse's job of carrying us as easy as possible 👌

And by "fitness" I don't just mean how far u can run and how heavy u can lift.
I mean *riders specific* fitness. All the qualities riders specifically needs in saddle

Balance ✅
Symmetry ✅
Alignment ✅
Strength ✅
Stability ✅
Coordination ✅
Body awareness ✅
Flexibility ✅
Mobility
Moto Control ✅
Relaxation ✅

Do u ever struggle in loading your horse onto the float?

Or maybe it's not that u can't get them on, but they rush off or refuse to load at the other end

Do they get on, but u need to allow to 10-30 minutes just in case you've a discussion about it

Or do u need a maximum of 2+people to help get the horse in and closed?

I used to find myself in these situations too...

And it was honestly, so embarrassing being the last one at the show with a horse that wouldn't load🥺😞

And super stressful when there was a bushfire or I needed to take the horse to the vet and he literally refused to load

Learn steps for yourself tailor loading 😂😀

Rider fitness is not necessarily about how much u can lift, or how far u can run, it's about developing the specific qualities that riders need in order to be the easiest load to carry for the horse and the best ride that u can be

But what you'll get is... lasting results

Acknowledge and skills u can take with u to last a lifetime
A prospective that'll transform the way u look at and interact with horses
A deeper understanding of horses and how they see the world, what motivates them and how they learn.
A much more fulfilling experience with your horse.
And ironically, what you'll find is over time, your slow progress will start to compound.
And u get to where u wanna go anyway, prioritizing the partner and understanding with your horse along the way.
The end result is so much sweeter 😘.

Breaking through from my recent cross country with Harriet

ACCEPT A LITTLE
with a horse who is naturally and will give whatever u ask a go, it is easy to over to it. Whatever I pointed Harriet at, she happily jumped! And I was so tempted to ask for more bigger jumps, scarier jumps...but after some thought, I realized I hadn't done cross country training with her for some time and what she was offering was amazing. So I decided to accept a little and keep the session successful instead of asking for more and potentially "over cooking" her or taking advantage of her trying nature

BEWARE OF PATTERNS
I had created a pattern to jump, stop reward and graze which is great to build the desire to jump, but ultimately, I'd like to jump a multiple jumps in a row without stopping in a nice rhyme. So since the jumping habit is established, I was able to change the pattern to jump continue in rhyme (or just for a second time) before stoping, resting, rewarding and relaxing etc
