Horse Skills Help Self-awareness Tips
For people who are new to my teaching and training theories, there are many questions and frequently a great deal of pondering and brooding as folks start to question “the way they’ve always done things” with their horses.
Horse Tips - Connecting the Groundwork with the Riding
Connecting Groundwork and Riding
One of the challenges in offering instruction is to communicate clearly with students AND horses. As I overhear, read or watch many “horse training” sessions/clinics I find that there’s a general lack of “connection” in the student’s ability to understand how the “here and now,” especially in how the quality of their ground work is, relates to their future ride.

Pressure & Release - Building the Horse's Trust
Horse help: Pressure and Release Part 2
Pressure & Release Part 2
The reality is that many riders feel like they are begging for the horse to acknowledge them. Other folks’ approach is to “make” the horse do something through physical dominance; this fuels the horse’s defensiveness. Then there are riders who learn to work “around” the horse, limiting what they ask of them to avoid potential resistance or conflict.
Horse Help : Pressure and release… Part 1
Pressure and release…
The missing language of a quality partnership Part 1
A majority of unwanted horse behavior stems from the animal responding with defensiveness towards any form of pressure. Spatial and physical are the most common types of pressure people use to communicate with horses. If there is a physical resistance and mental distrust towards pressure, this can lead to a wary partnership between horse and human.
