Building Trust, Skill, and Confidence in Every Horse

Horse Training

Our mission is to help you and your horse achieve your full potential through compassionate, effective, and customized training techniques. Whether you’re looking to compete or simply improve your partnership, we have the expertise to help. 

01

Retraining

Retraining a Horse that has been out of work for several months or even years requires consistency, patients, and structure. The goal is to rebuild the horse's fitness, confidence, and responsiveness, while considering its mental and physical condition.

02

Repurposing a Horse Off The Track

Repurposing a Retired Racehorse for a new discipline is a gradual and thoughtful process that requires understanding the horse's physical and mental state after its racing career.

03

Training For The Trails

Training a Horse to Trail Ride requires patience, consistency, and a clear understanding of the horse's temperament and abilities. Encountering wildlife, bicycles, or other distractions is common on trails. Introducing these in a calm and controlled setting allows the horse to acclimate before they face them unexpectedly

04

Building Bonds

Building a Strong Bond with a horse is fundamental for successful training and effective communication between horse and handler. Establishing trust and rapport with a horse is not only key to successful training but also to fostering a relationship where the horse feels safe, understood, and willing to cooperate.

05

Confidence Building

Building Confidence is a gradual process requiring patience, consistency, and an approach to help the horse overcome its fears. When building confidence in a young horse, the key is to adopt a patient, gradual, and positive approach. Young horses are impressionable and may lack the experience to handle new situations calmly, so the goal is to build trust and resilience through consistent, patient training.

06

Groundwork

Groundwork Training involves exercises designed to build communication, trust, respect, and control between the handler and the horse. Groundwork is essential for teaching a horse how to respond to cues before being ridden and lays the foundation for all future training.

07

Trailer Loading

Trailer Loading a horse can be a stressful experience for both the horse and handler if not done properly. Horses are naturally claustrophobic animals, and stepping into a confined space like a trailer can be intimidating. However, with patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement, you can train a horse to load and unload calmly and willingly.

08

Behavioural Modification

Behavioural Issues such as bucking, rearing, biting, or general disobedience. Horses typically develop bad habits either through fear, discomfort, lack of proper training, or reinforcement of unwanted behaviors. The key is to identify the root cause of the habit and apply appropriate corrective measures.
