COLT STARTING OR ADDITIONAL TRAINING TO YOUR STARTED HORSE. What to expect:
First month, absolutely depends on your horse! I will NOT rush things, I believe in foundation training, building blocks in each maneuver which takes time, and every horse learns at a different level. Your horse will have a proper start towards a solid foundation, using building blocks to help him learn, grow and succeed confidently. He will have the basics, forward motion, give to the rein, vertically and laterally, give to the leg through repetition and clear signals, this fundamental foundation will be laid. I focus on softness, no bracing throughout your horses entire body first at a walk - lope
a) I use exercises to stretch muscles gradually, to encourage suppling / softness in the horses body, from his hind quarter through his mouth
B) I will teach your horse to bend and give without resistance both laterally and vertically
C) engage and encourage his his hind end to reach under himself and drive from his engine
D) how to step over correctly into a spin / 360
E) whoa without bracing, back up....
F) Speed control, transitions...
And so much more! I am patient and am a very strong believer in a resistance free body and mind. I believe once we have that in a horse through fare training, he will give us his entire trust, his heart and soul. LESSONS:
I have 9 sensational horses to choose from, all are very safe, well mannered horses
ABOUT ME:
I have years of experience with horses, from ranch work most of my childhood, chasing cows as a summer job, starting colts on the ranch, and starting colts for others from the time I was about 10 years old.
