If you ride or work with horses, we can help you to improve your understanding of equine behaviour, enhance communication, and increase your confidence with handling, training and maintaining well-being. 


Training the Horse:
We use techniques to increase awareness of body language and posture to improve handling and riding ability. 

We demonstrate how posture and thought patterns can affect the way horses behave and react those around them.   

We empower students
 with techniques to help reduce stress in themselves and their horses.

We teach people how to handle and train horses from the ground to create a better relationship and improve balance before training in the saddle. 

We utilise the principles of joining up using handling, voice work, long reining and free schooling exercise.  

Our techniques enable people to remain calm, focussed and aware while problem solving.  

These are not only essential skills for handling horses; these are essential skills fo everday life!

Health and Well-being for the Horse
We emphasise awareness of body language communication as a means of helping well-being and performance.

We teach vital aspects of maintaining health and well-being for the horse by utilising their own innate skills to seek out wellness if provided with natural choices. 

We provide essential knowledge on equine anatomy, physiology and bio-mechanics.

We educate our students in the application of Kinesiology to help posture, performance, health and emotional well-being of the rider, which in addition will help the horse.

We teach subtle communication skills, enabling students to prioritise the best means of maintaining good health and behaviour.

Testemonials:
'When we ride, we so often focus on our own needs, likes and dislikes, rather than those of the horse. The workshops helped me to focus not only on developing a partnership with the horse, but also made me realise how important it is to understand where the a horse is in its development and what kind of approach will help them progress. They also helped me to understand how important it is to spend time developing your relationship with your horse from the ground as well as from in the saddle.'  Sue

'The Horse Listening course clearly demonstrated to me how much the horse picks up on my emotions and wariness.  As we relaxed and started to enjoy the exercises, it felt like we connected properly for the first time.  It was also fascinating to watch how other people's personalities affected their relationship with their horses.' Sarah

'I feel now that I will be able to know Breeze in  away that I never thought possible.  Its truly magical.'  Emma
