You will learn how to best support your horse's learning process. Instincts and natural behavior play a huge role in everything a horse learns. As a flight animal, it’s natural for the horse to be afraid of new things.
For seamless communication between horse and rider, it’s essential for the rider to consistently reward the horse when he’s responded correctly to a request, and also to seize giving the request. This is the essence of using positive and negative reinforcement. Ultimately, the horse should respond to the lightest aids. That's why a correct seat is so important!
In this course you learn:
➡️ The underlying principles of how horses, as flight animals, learn
➡️ Work with the horse's nature when teaching the aids
➡️ Your seat as the most important communication tool
➡️ Handling mistakes and avoiding misunderstandings
