Distance, Online, and Remote Horse Learning

 


I started coaching remotely long before Covid existed. 

Horsemanship: Humans Learning to be Present

 


What if... 

 We applied this first to Ourselves? 

*Mentally 

*Emotionally 

and then 

 *Physically 

 when we are with the horse? 

 So many riders use the horse as time for the human to escape from reality or as an outlet from life's stresses. 

 Rarely do they recognize and address the Supportive Communication the horse needs from Us for them to stay mentally present, emotionally quiet, and physically reasonable. 

The "Equine Partnership" will not be successful or retain quality if its foundation is based solely on the horse serving the human.

Horsemanship: Allowing the Time

 Direct route isn't the fastest 

 I find folks unreasonably expect (and are sales-pitched) things should happen quick and immediate with horses. 

Horsemanship: Perceptions of the Halt



 I find most horses asked to stand have a massive degree of containment imposed upon them to prevent them from physically moving.
