What Type Of Training Do I Provide?
Luckily the so called "Old Day's" are history when a horse had to be "broke" to be a good horse. I actually consider my first employer, Mr. Rolf Deichsel, Germany, in the equine world to be one of the first resistance free trainers I've had the pleasure to be able to learn from. He was the first to tell me: "You can never be stronger than a horse, but smarter!"
This phrase has burned in to my brain until today.
Later, during my career in the United States, I've had the opportunity to visit clinics and seminars of other well known natural horse trainers like the Parelli's, Clinton Anderson and John Lyons for example and they all really impressed me with their way of gaining the horses trust and to train it in a manner that anyone can see the horses actually enjoying what they were doing and what they've been done with.
I've never tried to copy one of those excellent trainers, like a good salesman will never be the copy of someone else, but each one of them gave me new ideas and cues about how to improve my own style of training a horse - with excellent results. My training is specialized to Trail riding, Trekking and Endurance Riding.
The Youtube video below is a slideshow showing clients, friends and horses I've trained or re - trained and had fun with during my travels in the US and the Dominican Republic.
The slidehow right next to the video shows some of what I'm doing with the horses during the ground work period of the training.
