Re-Educating the Fearful Horse Video by Alternative Horsemanship


A glimpse into the journey of a horse that arrived with pain and fear issues. First helping the horse get physically comfortable and then teaching him to try and trust the human. Video filmed from the saddle, to help people see how the horse's ears offer feedback as to their thoughts and focus. Their thoughts affect the quality and softness of their physical movement and the ride.

Tulip- Pasture Horsemanship Conversations from Fleeing to Participative


Three weeks ago I couldn't get near Tulip. After many Conversations with her learning to let go of her fear and flee, she's learning to try and become curious and willing during the human interactions. For those who missed the original videos, her Sales Pitch, and Week 1 https://youtu.be/BU0SDxd3F8Q , and Week 2 https://youtu.be/oJe-Y8XNuOY , Haltering https://youtu.be/SebMgGaryJM videos to see the progression. Unfortunately, her story of being the "Advanced Beginner" horse that turns out to be as opposite from that as possible is very common these days. #alternativeHorsemanship #RemoteHorseCoach #horsemanship https://remotehorsecoach.uscreen.io

Dear Sam: Horse Help Horsemanship Video Series *Empathy vs. Assumptions



Alternative Horsemanship with Samantha Harvey presents Dear Sam: Horse Help Horsemanship Series *Empathy vs. Assumptions

In this video, Sam discusses how many people are starting in a place of assumption with their horses. This causes the human to not recognize the potential cracks or holes in their equine's educational "foundation." This fundamental misunderstanding leads to a majority of the unwanted scenarios experienced with the horse because the handler or rider is assuming and misinterpreting many equine behaviors.

Full Immersion Horsemanship Clinics, Sandpoint, ID
Wow... I can't believe we're already into July! As always "life" happens and there's been a few openings in the Idaho Full Immersion Horsemanship Clinics. Perhaps the timing is right for you to join me in these fantastic learning Opportunities!

What is a Full Immersion Horsemanship Clinic?
I developed the "Full Immersion Clinic" as an opportunity to address a variety of topics with participants learning during both unmounted sessions and while in the saddle. These safe, fun, and supportive learning opportunities offer an in-depth full immersion experience.

The Friday through Sunday clinics focus on Equine Behavior Assessment, Clear Communication & Effective Aids, Ground Work, and Riding. We also cover a variety of topics such as anatomical lectures, tack fit and appropriate usage, "finding a feel" exercises, group discussions, and much more!

Who may participate?
From novice to advanced riders, I encourage participants of all ages, disciplines, and experience levels. Horses may range from un-started colts to experienced competitive horses, and everything in between.  This is not a "discipline-specific" clinic. Maximum of eight participants.

Can I bring more than one horse?
Yes.  One horse is included in the participant fee, if you would like to bring an extra horse to "split" sessions with, there is a $10/day fee.

Can I participate if I don't have my own horse?
At this time I have one lesson horse available that is offered on a first-come basis (depending on the order registration is received.)

Why no predetermined "format?"
This is an opportunity to learn about behavioral patterns in you and your horse and to address "holes" in the foundation of your equine partnership.  These may be influencing the quality of the relationship with your horse and are preventing you from achieving your goals.  The clinic offers a safe, non-critical, supportive opportunity where you are encouraged to take the time to recognize how what, and why you're communicating with your horse.  By watching other participants, people begin to see similarities in their own horsemanship. 

These horsemanship clinics can be a great way to offer perspective and offer participants both short and long-term realistic direction for them and their horse.  Beyond this basic outline, the structure and focus of the clinic will depend on the participants and their interests. Whether you are a trail rider, jumper, pleasure rider, or endurance rider, and everyone else, there is much to be discovered!

How long is a session?
A clinic day begins at 8 a.m., with about an hour lunch break midday, and ends around 5 p.m.  I do not work by the clock but individual time is roughly 45 min to 1 1/2hrs several times in a day and group ride time longer.  There is a lot of group discussion in between rides further discussing things that arose in each person's session.

Is the instruction individual or group?
Both.  Initially, everyone gets one on one time and then depending on the student and their horse's needs, they will continue to have individual time and/or group instruction.

 

What tack do I need?
The only requirement is that all riders must wear an ASTM-approved riding helmet.  There are helmets available to borrow for the clinic for a $10 fee.  Otherwise, tack is often assessed, adjusted for proper fit, etc. throughout the clinic.

How do I register?
If you would like to participate, a non-refundable 50% deposit to guarantee participant slots.

To register online and pay online: If using a mobile device click 
HERE. If on a pc or laptop, scroll to form further down this page.

Or you can visit the 
Registration page to print participant paperwork and to mail payment.

What does the clinic cost?
The cost to participate in the three-day clinic is $600.

May I audit?
Auditors may pay a daily or a discounted three-day fee.  They are encouraged to participate in all relevant group discussions.  The auditor fee is $50/day or a discount of $115/3 days. To pay online click 
HERE or Email to get registered

 

What is included in the price?
Daily unmounted theory discussions, tack/equipment fitting & usage, individual and group instruction and activities, and pasture board (grass hay) for your horse.  There are four 12x12 uncovered stalls available on a first-come, first-serve basis and must be reserved at the time of your registration submission.  (You are responsible for cleaning your own stall.)

When may I arrive/depart?
Horse arrivals are to be on the Thursday prior to the first day of the clinic. Local folks typically head home Sunday evening.  Those traveling long distances stay through Sunday night, (extra $10/night board charge) and depart Monday morning.

 

Accommodation options
Free dry camping (sorry, no hook-ups) is available on the property whether you're in a tent, motor home, camper, or horse trailer.  There are many options via 
AirBnB, and plenty of name-brand hotels and motels in Sandpoint (about a 15 min drive south of the facility.)

Food/Grocery Options
Participants must provide their own food and lodging. A mom-and-pop store is just a few miles away, 
The Pack River General Store, offering basic groceries to a full dining menu that changes daily.

 

Property Rules
There is NO SMOKING policy on the TEC property.
All cell phones must be on vibrate for the ENTIRE clinic.  If you must take a call, please do so to not interrupt the other participant's experience.
You may not ride your horse outside of clinic activities unless otherwise given permission.
Dogs must be well behaved (no barking) and remain on leashes at all times, and owners must pick up after them.
