Horse Training
- My Approach -
My approach to horse training inspires the horse’s thought patterns to align with what is being presented. This style of training is based on an analysis of the horse’s behavior and seeks to give the horse a clearer understanding of pressure. I have a passion for problem-solving, and analyzing horses thoughts and behavior, which makes my approach unique, and different for every horse in my training program. Over the years, I have learned how to become more observant and thoughtful in my approach to horses. My training methods encourage the horse to think with guidance, instead of responding out of fear. Training in this way produces a relationship instead of a series of conditioned responses. Encouraging the horse to think allows them to be a more available and willing partner.
