Creating A Safe Horse
Creating a safe horse that wants to look after you doesn’t happen by accident.
It happens by showing up consistently as a compassionate leader worth following.
Building a relationship and a connection with your horse is the most effective way to teach horses to be safe and to look after their humans.
ESPECIALLY if you are not a professional trainer!
If your horse likes you, trusts you and is confident in you, you won’t need to force your horse to look after you.
Teaching horses how to relax mentally (through compassionate leadership techniques), makes horses that enjoy the learning process, and amazing ASK and WANT to be ridden - all without trauma triggering training methods.
Compassionat leadership is about:
Awareness of how the work you are doing with your horse makes them feel engaged, and adapting that work will make them feel engaged, but also enthusiastic and excited to work with us.
Giving them permission to relax and communicate their needs creates a horse that trusts you and is confident that you will make good decisions on their behalf (what they really need from a leader)
Being able to ask for your horses attention and permission to do things to and with them because of the strength of your relationship, trust and confidence in each other, creates horses that are empowered to ask for a break when they are overwhelmed or say “Yes, I’m ready for more”
Compassionate leadership is about creating safe, happy horses.
