Confidence Booster Course
Confidence Booster On The Ground
This one day course is designed to help both you and your horse with confidence on the ground, which in turn, will help with your riding. You will learn the importance of body language and how to control your breathing, helping both you and the horse to relax. We will also look at how to be a strong leader, that your horse wants to follow. You will take part in certain activities, teaching your horse de-sensitisation to various stimuli and learn the importance of timing and consistency. Here, you will be taught how to effectively use the Dually halter, a training head collar invented by Monty Roberts, that works on the basis of pressure and release, making it easy for your horse to do the right thing and harder to do the wrong thing, teaching them intrinsically. This course is ideal for anyone with a spooky horse or youngster, or those wanting to help boost their or their horses' confidence.
Anna can provide suitable, safe horses, if needed, so you don't need to own a horse to help build your confidence!
The course will mostly be practical, however some theory will be taught, informing you on horse psychology and the physiology of the horse, allowing you to understand why the horse reacts to certain 'scary' situations.
UPCOMING DATES
14th April, 2019 (starting from 9am)
1st June, 2019 (starting from 9am)
Price
£100
Spectators welcome, £10 per person
