Course Outline
For a lot of people, horse body language can be very hard to read, their cues can be subtle and nuanced. Now with thousands of hours of experience behind me, I’m happy and confident in my approach to start sharing my knowledge with my growing community. These lessons are cornerstones of many problems, they can be applied across a range of situations.
The course will help you develop key communication skills and a better understanding of horse behaviour. This applies to all domestic horses also. You will go from completely wild, then onto the first touch, to handling, haltering, and leading. There is also a range of groundwork skills, like float loading, hoof care lessons, tying up, and lifting the feet.
