Who matters more? The mare or stallion?

In a 2015 study, 675 foals were divided into 4 categories.
1. Elite dam x Elite sire (EE)
2. Elite dam x Poor sire (EP)
3. Poor dam x Elite sire (PE)
4. Poor dam x Poor sire (PP)
Unsurprisingly, the best offspring came from the Elite dam x Elite sire group. Here’s a twist… the worst offspring did not come from the Poor dam x Poor sire group as one would expect. The worst performers came from the Poor dam x Elite sire group!!

Overall, the lesser performing foals came from the PE and PP groups. The highest performers were in the EE and EP groups.

Can you say ‘girl power?’ Mares have a large impact in the quality of the foal! Keep this in mind for the upcoming breeding season 😉

From Basics to Grand Prix
All levels of riders are welcome and will gain invaluable information.
Action Type Training
My presentations on Action Type Training delve into the different personality types of riders and how understanding these types can greatly improve communication and harmony between horse and rider.
I provide practical tips and techniques for identifying and working with each type effectively.
Personal preferences
Through simple physical tests, rather than questionnaires, we can identify your personal preferences.
These tests have been developed by ActionTypes® founders Bertrand Theraulaz (Switzerland) and Ralph Hippolyte (France), both esteemed coaches and former teachers in their respective fields.
The Deep Motivational Driver’s (DMD’s) influence your Action Type personality so it’s beneficial to know what they are as well. They are tested in a similar way with bodytests.

Delve deeper into this approach and gain insights into the connection between cognition, emotion, and motor preferences, and what the influence of stress is.

Respect, dedication, and integrity are core values of the Action Type Academy.

Action Type testing is available as a one on one lesson of 45 minutes without a horse.

There is still space available for the Action Type testing lessons and riding lessons with Jenny Veenstra on March 23 and 24 at Windhhorse Mountain Equine. Call 559 642-8004 to reserve a spot. See more about Jenny at Jenny Veenstra Dressage.

See what Action Type Training is and what it can do for you!
