Horsemanship Coaching & Horse Training
By focusing on consent-based techniques and prioritising the horse’s comfort and well-being, we create an environment where both horses and riders can thrive.
Kim offers horse training as well as lessons to all ages and abilities.
Here’s a breakdown of the key aspects of our training program for both horses and riders:
- Consent-Based Techniques: Our approach ensures that your horse is not subjected to stress or discomfort during training. We don’t believe in horse breaking but in training them in a holistic way through mutual trust and cooperation.
- Gradual Expansion of Comfort Zone: We gradually expand your horse’s comfort zone which allows them to build confidence and feel secure throughout the learning process.
- Variety of Obstacles and Exercises: Using a range of obstacles and exercises keeps the training engaging and mentally stimulating for your horse. This can help prevent boredom and improve their overall adaptability.
- Threshold Observation: Carefully monitoring your horse’s thresholds and skilfully tailoring training sessions to stay within their limits is vital. This approach helps ensure a positive and rewarding experience for your horse.
- Inclusivity: Our program is open to horses of all ages and levels of experience. This means that we can cater to the needs of both novice and experienced riders, as well as horses at various stages of their training.
- Personalised Horsemanship Lessons: We offer personalised lessons, both in-person and virtually. This flexibility allows people from ever state the chance to access Kim’s expertise.
- Lesson Variety: The option to choose from groundwork, under saddle, or a combination of both provides owners with a customised learning experience that aligns with their specific goals and preferences.
- Building Strong Bonds: The emphasis on effective communication and general horsemanship not only enhances riding skills but also helps owners build a strong bond with their horses.
- Supportive Environment: We’re proud to create a supportive environment for riders of all levels. This positive atmosphere encourages riders to nurture their passion and achieve their riding potential.
