Animal Rights: Our Responsibility, Not Theirs
If we choose to bring horses into our lives, then their well-being isnāt someone elseās responsibilityāitās ours.
ā Birds in cages, horses in stallsā¦ we shape their world.
ā If we confine them, train them, ask things of themā¦ we must also think about what we can do to give back.
ā Their lives are in our hands, and thatās not a small thing.
Itās not about judgment. Itās about awareness. The choices we make shape their experience, their freedom, and their trust in us.

Why Nervous Horses ALWAYS Stop
Ever worked with a horse that freezes every time it gets nervous?
Jack Curtis shares a real-life training challengeāthis horse was taught to associate the crack of a bullwhip with standing still. The result? Whenever it felt unsureā¦ it stopped. ā
Now, stopping is better than bolting, of course. But if your horse's response to uncertainty is to lock up, youāre not making progress. So how do you help your horse move forward with confidence instead of shutting down?

Trauma Healing: Horse & Human Journey
šæ Healing Through Connection: A Journey with Lucie Klaassen š“āØ
What happens when we start recognizing the parallels between our own trauma and the experiences of our horses?
Lucie Klaassen shares her deeply personal journeyāfrom burnout and loss to finding healing through her horse, Xiao. Trained for bullfighting, Xiao carried the physical and emotional scars of his past, constantly stuck in a state of alertness. As Lucie applied what she had learned about trauma and the nervous system, she witnessed a transformationāXiao moving from shutdown and anxiety to a state of calm and connection.
This realization led to a powerful webinar, an online course (Wired for Connection), and even a bookāhelping thousands understand the deep links between human and equine nervous systems.
ā Watch this clip to hear Lucieās story firsthand. ā Get inspired by how sharing what you know can be the most powerful way to learn and grow.

āHeās Just Being Stubbornā (Or is He?)
Many riders mistake resistance for disobedienceā¦ when really, itās just confusion.
Horses donāt say no for no reason. They:
ā Say no when they donāt understand
ā Say no when theyāre in pain
ā Say no when theyāre afraid
The best horsemen donāt punish the noāthey ask why.
At Online Fair 2025, trainers will help you:
ā Decode what your horse is really saying
ā Replace frustration with clarity
ā Turn roadblocks into breakthroughs

š Unlocking the Shutdown Horse with Mark Langley š“āØ
Have you ever worked with a horse that seems completely shut down?
One that doesnāt react, doesnāt engage, and seems like itās in its own world?
Mark Langley explains how some horses have spent years developing coping mechanismsālike an introvert in a noisy nightclub, completely tuning out the world. Simply ālisteningā to these horses isnāt enough. They need guidance to search again, to unlock from their learned shutdown and engage with the world in a healthy way.
ā How do we apply pressure in a way that helps them open up instead of shut down?
ā How do we shift from a robotic, programmed response to true softness and connection?
This is the kind of insight youāll find at the Art Of The Horseman Online Horse Fairāreal conversations that transform the way we approach our horses.
