Creating Relaxation & Connection

In order to effectively and easily train your horse to do what you want (whether it’s tempe changes in dressage, jumping a meter, doing a sliding stop, riding on the trail, etc.) it is imperative that you start with a horse that can easily shift between their sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems.

We have words that aren’t as sciency: relaxed, connected, engaged, willing, trusting. However, teaching our horses how to reset their nervous systems helps every aspect of training. After years of training professional reining horses and then traveling all over the world helping thousands of horses and humans, Warwick has distilled this into a repeatable process for any horse owner.

This is an older course.  The Learning Paths would be our desired place for you to be working on the process, although there is some good information here, it might just be presented slightly differently.
