EASY STEP HORSEMANSHIP 

TRAINING LESSONS : UNDERSTANDING YOUR HORSE
                                 from Ground to Saddle

Picture
Not your typical riding lessons.

There's a lot more to it than just steering, stopping and backing up. Stop a wreck before it happens. Want to know more about why your horse does what he does? Learn how your horse thinks, why he reacts and know what it means to be an active instead of a reactive rider.

Take control from ground to saddle. Gain confidence through easy step by step instruction at your pace.

Got Fear? Uncertainty? Frustration? Is riding turning into a battle of wills? It's not about force, gimmicks or pain or punishment. It's about learning how to use body language and simple cues to communicate better. The more you know, the easier it gets with practice. 

                                              Visualize. Focus. Relax. Stay In Control.

This is training to better your communication between you & your horse:  
$45 per 1.5 hours per rider*
*small travel fee may apply 

Lessons with Your Horse Only. No Lesson Horse Available.  Riders: 12 & Up Only
