Barb
specializes in novice horses and riders. She is extremely
patient and to assist riders uses visual as well as thinking
strategies to help achieve their individual riding goals.
Saddle Breaking
and In-Hand Work:
From weanlings
to OTTBs, Barb enjoys teaching young horses their
basics. It's during this process that the horse gets
the impression of what being handled by a human is going
to be like for the rest of their life. Horses are
creatures of habit and prefer a consistent, daily
routine. Young horses are started with in-hand
work to gain respect on the ground, move to the lunge
line for balance and suppleness and then go on to work
under saddle to help create a happy equine athlete.
Retraining
and Horses with Individual Needs:
Of track
thoroughbreds and horses that have special needs due to
health issues or previous training have become another
area of expertise that Barb covers for clients. These
horses need individualized attention, getting into their
heads and determining the cause and effect of their
behavior.
Working
with Novice Horses and Riders:
Barb is extremely patient and uses
visual as well as thinking strategies to help riders
achieve their individual riding goals. Whether it's
preparing the horse and/or rider for shows or
reintroducing
someone to the saddle after a hiatus, there is always a
positive outcome before, during and after training.
