Event Description

  • Observe horses in a herd environment
  • Discover the wisdom inherent in herd dynamics
  • Learn about the differences between predator and prey behaviour
  • Learn about herd behaviour and how horses interact
  • Learn about equine behaviour and why horses do what they do
  • Learn how to speak the language of the horse

This half-day workshop focuses on horse psychology and equine body language.
We will start out by observing horses in a herd environment in the field. Participants will learn about herd dynamics and herd behaviour, the differences between predator and prey behaviour, and horse psychology and equine body language.
We will then spend time in the round pen with a variety of horses and apply and reinforce what we learned in the field.
You willl learn how to set boundaries and how to be assertive without being aggressive. You will learn how to help timid horses become more confident and how to get pushy horses to respect your space.
Even if you're already a rider, this workshop will provide you with life-changing horsemanship skills.

This workshop doesn't include any riding.
Falling Star Ranch horses will be provided.
$50 per person per half-day workshop (3 hours).
No spectators at this workshop.
