How to Develop Connection & Deepen Your Relationship With Your Horse | Part One Horsemanship Fundamentals Series

Connection…. it's such a buzzword in the horsemanship space! 

 

But it’s hard to quantify. It’s subjective. It’s elusive…some may think it’s even a bit ‘woo woo’. 

 

I think it’s kinda like the 'half halt' in dressage- everyone has a slightly different definition of exactly what it is, and people have trouble explaining it! But once you know, you know! 

 

Connection is super important- an absolute fundamental of horsemanship!

 

So in part one of this 3-part Horsemanship Fundamentals Series, I talk all about connection including: 

• What connection is, what it looks & feels like
• What problems can arise if you and your horse lack connection
• 8 mistakes people make when trying to achieve connection
• 10 things you can do to help improve your connection
