My clients often say to me 'I wish you could be here for every session with my horse.'

Of course that's not possible, but I think I've found the next best thing!

I'm really excited to share another 'Let's play!' podcast. I have so many ideas for these - groundwork, riding and hacking, suitable for all levels of horsemanship. They are perfect for clients to have me there to remind them of things in between lessons, and a great way for those unable to have lessons to get tuition from me in real time. These sessions can be used over and over again and are designed to be listened to while you are with your horse. 

For this one, 'Pre ride checks and mounting' I will help you to build a groundwork warm up to check your horse is calm, confident, connected and responsive and ready to ride, then talk you through the mounting process, helping YOU to stay calm, confident and connected. This podcast is designed for those who get anxious when mounting their horse, but will work for anyone who wants to refine the process.

We will work through three simple but useful exercises together - Mirror me, moving circles with poles, and hindquarter yields. You don't have to have done them before, but there are video tutorials available in the Gold Club if you need them. You can sign up here: https://payhip.com/b/6ORt

You will need:
A safe place to play, such as an arena or paddock.
A halter, horsemanship stick/string and 18-22ft rope.
A few poles (any amount!) scattered randomly around the arena.
Duration: 43 minutes

I hope you have fun and I'd love to hear any feedback you have, or ideas for future sessions. You can email me at nl.equestrian@yahoo.co.uk
