Horse Training Obstacle Course Clinic May 18th 9:00 to 12:00 EDT
Are you ever frustrated when your horse tells you, "NO!" after you've asked him to step in water, cross a bridge, walk over a log, load in a trailer, or any other obstacle? Timing of pressure, release, and praise is crucial for success in unlocking willingness and great communication between a horse and rider. Trainer Hannah Barden has a passion for teaching people how to communicate with their horse and build a strong relationship of leadership and trust. This clinic will start off with a short demonstration to give you the "eye" to see what a horse's yes and no look like. Riders and their horses will follow with real-life practice on the following topics:
How to cue and recognize when your horse says, "Yes,"
Learn to apply and release your cues at the correct moment
How to push your horse without entering a danger zone
Recognizing that your horse goes where his shoulders go
Learning how to control your horse's shoulders independently of his face -SO IMPORTANT!
Increasing control of all aspects of where your horse's hooves go, including standing still.
Thinking correctly about "scary" things you may encounter in real-life situations
Safety measures to save your life in a real-life trail fiasco
