So... Your Horse is Stopping at the Jumps

May 01, 2020

There are many reasons that a horse stops at the jumps. And there are many different ways to deal with it. You need to understand why he is stopping. If it is a single stop in a riding lesson, or at a horse show it doesn't mean that the horse has a problem with a stop. But if the horse continues to stop, in a lesson, in a horse show or during warm up for a horse show, you need to try to figure out why. To every problem there is a root!!

What To Do Between Lessons

April 12, 2020

There are many things that you can practice and make your half hour well worth your effort. Remember your horses are creatures of habit, everything you do is teaching them. They do not know when it becomes important to do a better job of something. Practice does not make perfect, PERFECT PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT. You are always the trainer.

What Next: Staying Fit & Post COVID-19 Training Plan

April 03, 2020

We are all experiencing a very difficult time right now as barns have closed to the general public. This is usually the time when we are doing our homework to get ready for our show season. Hopefully within the not-too-distant future we will be told that we are allowed to go back and ride our horses.
