  So --you came to this page first--???

RIDING PROBLEMS.  Lack of understanding, and poor handling by humans can cause a great deal of problems.  Also the misuse of the horse, as well as un-recognized abuse.  The horse is usually not the problem -humans, and past human handlings are!  We seek to 'train' humans, to simply understand the horse.  Horses should NOT have to change.

 WE need to change! Not the horse!

RIDING PROBLEMS

                                                                    We think we ride 'um!                                                                           

We think we control 'um. 

                                       We think wrong!                                                       

                                                                           In fact --we think way too much!                                   

                                              We best learn --to feel                                                                

Beginner/novice riders --know they do not know.  Intermediate riders --KNOW they KNOW.  Working riders seem to think horses need an equipment change, because they know they can't be wrong.     Natural riders --just ride, for the sheer joy of it.  Professional riders --must 'look like' they know how to ride.  Wanna-be riders --copy the professional riders, in costume, equipment, and behavior. they are the look-a-likes!

And there is the smart rider, who watches from the bench, while the others try to ride.  Only kidding!

~~~<>~~~

The TOTAL HORSEMAN RIDER --feels the horse, and understands them 'intuitively'

--as a horse, an athlete, and as a friend.

YEP!  That's a BIG KEY!  Learning the difference between to feel or to control.

We would like to take the passenger (who sit at the controls) --off the horse, and place a horse's heart into the new  intuitive 'rider-to-be'.

A horse is a horse --is a horse. 

If you know the horse, you really know the horse --as a horse.

If you can ride a horse --really ride a horse, then a horse is a horse--is a horse!

~~~<>~~~                           Praise --not pain!

If we know ourselves better --then it is much easier to learn about the horse and riding, even after many years of trying.

Finding the 'missing element' may just be in getting a new introduction to the horse, from someone who thinks like a horse, and speaks for the horse, and feels --what the horse feels.

After all, someone has to be

The 'VOICE' --for the horse.

We're giving 'language'--for you to see and understand the discomfort, tolerance, strain and pain, of what the horse must endure as a --   

  

 Victim to 'Human Expectation'

Coming soon --HAY for THOUGHT!  see abuse

    A collection of photos --showing the agony of the horse --at the hands of mis-informed riders.

We must consider the answers we have been given for years; 

"Because it's always been done like that".  Or,

"That's how it is supposed to be done"

That is NOT an answerIt's an EXCUSE --for NOT KNOWING!

Stay tuned --check back often, as we continue to evolve. 

We're gonna ruffle a few 'hard hats'.         

--and I will still speak for the horse!  --Rose M. Foreman
