C.O.M. – INTEGRATED ESSENTIALS is a two-day group workshop that stands on its own. It has become a solid base to all my workshops and proves to be of great value for anybody working with or around horses. Not essential to take before any of the other workshops, but recommended for your and your horse’s benefit to improve as a team.
This workshop will enhance the entire riding experience from the moment you enter the barn until the moment when you leave. The focus is on understanding how you can better communicate with the horse and how this is effecting the relationship with your horse and the work you want to accomplish.You will start from the ground up, learning to be aware of common errors, misconceptions, or oversights. Included in the work are the horse’s behaviour while leading, cleaning, and tacking-up.
For the work in saddle you will work on mounting, warming up, the work phase, and cooling down. We will explore how to structure the work phase and what you can do to improve and enjoy your horse even more.
To conclude the workshop we will explore the care after riding. You will learn methods and techniques to improve and correct all those points. The goal is creating a great team as well as safety for yourself, your horse and others. We are striving to resolve potential issues and maximize the success of the horse and rider team.
