Open Format, Multi-Level course – Kurmond, NSW FEB 1-3 – Focus on Riding – Horse & Rider Biomechanics

Create the PARTNERSHIP of your DREAMS through
CONNECTION, LEADERSHIP with LOVE, and optimal BIOMECHANICS.

Develop an amazing bond and relationship through connection and feel.
Develop your skills - feel, timing, balance, communication, intuition and energy awareness.
Set your horse up for success by developing his or her posture, strength and athleticism through groundwork therapy.
Learn Riding dynamics that all horses wish their riders knew.

Just imagine a horse with cruise control, that is smooth, soft and balanced, who harmoniously flows with you and who has  no brace or resistance. They stop, go, slow, flow or turn with the most minimal of communication. That is what is possible and that is what this teaching can help you create. A willing, inspired partner that is calm and confident, balanced, agile and powerfully athletic.  It doesn't get much better than that. That truly is a great feeling.

Sound to good to be true? Well what about a horse that is just calm, safe, relaxed and enjoyable to ride down the trail ? Maybe that is all you are desiring. Or a horse that you could easily and calmly do lower level competition with, for example a dressage test or working equitation competition. Or you just need to problem solve a behaviour - like trailer loading, feet handling or leading with calmness.  This teaching can help you with all of that too.

Most importantly, the number one principle underlying all of the teaching is that we put the horse first. How they feel and meeting their needs mentally, emotionally and physically determines how fast we can progress or what we need to focus on. My highest priority is to create a happy horse who is inspired to participate and that what we ask of them is beneficial for them at all levels of mind, body and spirit.

Feb 1-3
Time: 9 - 5 

Win your horse's heart, engage their mind, connect to their soul and develop their physical body with optimal biomechanics for happiness, health, soundness and powerfully athletic performance.  

Learn how to connect, communicate and understand your horse - why do they do what they do, how do they learn, and what needs do they need met?
Develop your Intuitive Sensing and Energetic Awareness
Learn the ever elusive quality of Feel that horses love.
Learn practical Horse Handling Techniques
Start developing your horse's Posture for Optimal Biomechanics
Learn the Rider Biomechanics that all horses wish their owners knew.

How good would it be:-
To feel safe and to feel that you and your horse could communicate clearly and understand each other.
To have a horse that is a willing partner and wants to participate.
To have a calm horse who at the same time is magnificent, expressive, energetic, graceful and a physically strong, powerful athlete who could safely carry you down the trail or be a performance horse.

This is my dream horse. A partnership like this is created not bought, it is also not directly transferable from one person to another.  Even if you bought a horse that seemed to fit the bill, unless you learn the skills, that horse won't maintain those qualities. They can't. They will fall to the level of skill and be affected by the mindset and the energy of the person they are with. We have to develop ourselves.

This teaching addresses all areas of mind, body and spirit to help horses and people reach their highest and most magnificent potential and achieve these goals.

In this open format course - we will do a combination of both group sessions and individual focussed sessions. We will gather on the first morning for a group chat where all the participants with horses can share the things that they are wanting help with and after some group discussion and me highlighting some of the principles and philosophies of Connecting with Horses & Riding with Synchronicity, we set about problem solving the issues brought up and progressing people and horses into better partnerships together.

Come along with or without your horse.

Of course if you can bring your horse along your learning will be maximized as nothing beats hands on experience and having direct feedback from a supportive instructor to accelerate your learning. However the other option for attending these courses is to come and participate without a horse, in which case you would actively participate in all of the theory sessions, Q & A sessions, most  simulations as well as watch the demonstrations and observe those with horses practice the techniques. People coming without their horses are not just fence sitters. All of these "non-hands on" with horses sessions actually make up a big percentage of this course so the fee is priced appropriately.

Investment The cost to come with your horse is $660 for 3 days - that is the EB price if full payment is received by Jan 26th after that price is $770.

These courses are intimate groups with lots of personal attention for those bring horses (7 horse spots max.).  There are also spots available to come along without your horse.  The cost to come without your horse is $55/day. Bring your own chair, snacks, lunch etc.

'Functional Saddling' consultations, BALANCE saddles, Private lessons & Energetic Bodywork sessions

Make sure you book these private sessions in advance, especially if you are interested in the saddle fitting so I am sure to have the saddles with me that may be required. The Energetic Bodywork sessions I do are amazingly transformative for horses physically and emotionally.  I highly recommend them to really accelerate progress with your horse.
