Excellent words.

Excellent words.

What does it really mean to train ‘𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐞?’

This topic was brought up during our last mentorship call inside the 𝘉𝘦 𝘠𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘉𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘔𝘦𝘮𝘣𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘱, and our good friend, Nate Horner couldn’t have summed this topic up any better:

“I have a sign in my barn that says: '𝐑𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐧, 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐞.’

It reminds me that, when you train for the horse, you can’t focus on where you think you 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 be — you have to focus on what that horse needs from you 𝐭𝐨𝐝𝐚𝐲.

A lot of times, we look at horses to give us something — like that dopamine rush from a horse understanding our cues. But, we can’t look at it that way. I’ve had to get to the place where I think “what am I offering to the horse to make it a good deal for 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦?”

When you’re not selfishly looking for a result, it changes your mindset to be truly ‘for the horse.’”

He is also certified as a pack and trail clinic instructor, Western and English instructor, EFM instructor, CHA site certifier, and is a Certified Equine Specialist with the Equine Assisted Growth and Learning Association.
