What is Natural Horsemanship? Natural Horsemanship is a psycholog- based training platform for horses, trainers, and riders. It emphasizes interaction between the horse and human, through trust, respect, and communication rather than fear and intimidation, in a language that the horse can understand. It's much easier to speak the horse's language, rather than teaching them our language using predator psychology on a prey animal. It consists of 5 basic concepts: Approach and Retreat, Pressure and Release, Rewards and Consequences, Desensitization, and Foundation Training.
Our covered arena is perfect for riding on those hot summer nights!
