NATURAL HORSEMANSHIP
Natural Horsemanship is a philosophy of working with horses based on the horse’s natural instincts and methods of communication, with the understanding that horses do not learn through fear or pain, but rather from pressure and the release of pressure. We offer English and Western based lessons.
The goal of Horsemanship Lessons is to teach riders how to successfully care for their own horse and make building a healthy relationship the main priority. Lessons include:
Catching
Grooming
Tacking up
Groundwork
