Taster course Natural communication with horses - imaginative games around the horse trailer

around the horse trailer

We all want to experience relaxed and enjoyable moments together with our horses. This wish does not always materialise: the horse cannot be caught, it does not go into the trailer, when riding it is too fast or ignores our aids.

In our taster course, we want to introduce you to various ideas and show you how humans and horses can deal with these challenges. You won't always succeed straight away, but you can have a lot of fun and enjoy yourself on the way to becoming a courageous and reliable horse.

We will show you:

  • How we can communicate naturally and successfully with our horse,
  • We will also demonstrate various games and exercises on the ground,
  • how we can transfer communication on the ground to our riding.

Our programme focuses on the horse trailer and loading. We will show you how we can easily integrate the trailer into our daily work. You will be amazed at the great experiences that develop. We will be happy to answer your questions during the taster course.
