When we are watching our horses work, we love seeing them move beautifully and we don't want to see them in pain. But as we become more educated we see the subtle body language cues that are expressing pain and discomfort around work.

But how do you tell the difference between work evasion, pain of all the sorts that horses can get, fear or the frustration and anxiety of learning? 

That's why we have built the Holistic Horse Handling Program. 

You can't train pain. 

So how do you know what's behaviour and what's pain? How do you know if you should just push them through it or if it will blow them over threshold and develop a fear based relationship to training? How do you know you're not doing more harm than good? 

Understanding your horses unique way of communicating it's needs, plus our expert eye supporting your every step, will help you on your journey to developing an engaged, consenting, enthusiastic horse that enjoys learning and asks to be ridden.

Sound like an impossible unicorn? 

We help students time and again build the relationship they dream about so that they can reach their goals together as a team instead of at the expense of their horse. You can train your own unicorn.
