This course lays the foundation for beautiful partnerships with horses - mind, heart and soul connections with horses. It is a groundwork only course.

Respecting the horse as an equal with a spiritual essence and soul purpose in the world (just like ourselves), whilst at the same time understanding them at the physical level of a mammal, that is also a prey animal, enables us to better work with them. We are not just working with a physical body or only going as deep as the hair and the skin, we are working with a horse brain, mammalian nervous system and a mind, heart and soul. Horses are a thinking, feeling and emoting being that is not too different from ourselves in many ways. They are wired for connection, they want to feel loved, respected and appreciated, they want a fair deal and they need to be stimulated mentally, emotionally and physically. We need a holistic approach, integrating the mind, body and spirit to achieve the ultimate level of connection. 

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?

Set up a foundation in groundwork for your horse to develop good posture and optimal biomechanics for a happy, healthy, sound and athletic horse.

In future courses learn riding techniques that support healthy biomechanics and where you can ride as one, in total synchronicity with your horse.

Be nurtured and guided to develop yourself, mentally, emotionally and physically to become the person you need to be, to be a great partner for your horse.

Horses love it and so will you if you are looking for a way with horses that truly honours them and emanates from kindness, love and compassion.

It leads to joy and happiness for horses and humans.

CREATE  the PARTNERSHIP of YOUR DREAMS !!!!!

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 and be a top level 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 energy of the person they are with. We have to develop ourselves. This teaching can guide you and your horse to reach your highest and most magnificent potential and achieve your dreams.

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. There will be opportunities for you to ask questions about your own horse and have discussions on how the course content might need to be adapted to meet your horse's and your own specific needs.

Investment:

Come with your horse - 3 days $660 EB Price if paid in full before Oct 15th Full price is $770
Come without your horse - 3 days $285 (95/day)
Contact us for information about the different payment plans available.

Horse spots are limited to 6 so get in quick.
These courses are intimate group learning situations where people receive lots of one on one attention.

It's great value !!!!!
Paying $660 for this 3 day course would be approximately equivalent to paying for 8 weekly 45 min private lessons at $88/lesson (6 hrs of learning). But in this group accelerated learning environment you are going to get way more learning and bang for your buck. You will get 24 hrs of learning for the price of 6hrs of  private sessions and you will get way more done, make way more progress, in way less time !!!!!

Two Day Option - I format my short courses to be 3 days in length because that seems to be the time frame for optimal learning and for the biggest transformations in the horse and human to occur. The third day makes all the difference in the world to the benefits people and horses gain. It consolidates everything and helps integrate all of the philosophy, theory and practical skills learned. After day 3 you will feel empowered to go home and implement all of the learning.
However, I know that for some people getting a day off work can be hard. So.... if it's impossible to do the third day you can just do the weekend but priority of spots goes to those booking for all 3 days.

Come with your horse - 2 days $550
Come without your horse - 2 days $190
