Starting Young horses under saddle

Getting the right start for your young horse, under saddle, is a crucial part of their education and development. We understand the importance of taking the time your young horse needs, to confidently accept a rider on their back.

Horsemanship-individualWe also believe, that one of the most important aspects of starting a young horse is that you, the owner, has spent enough time under our instruction to feel confident and competent to continue on your own. Before we give the horse back to you, we expect it to be able to preform the following exercises:

  • Understand and demonstrates pre-ride ground work exercises; walk, trot and canter confidently on a circle
  • While being ridden; confidently bends and does one rein stops on both sides
  • While being ridden; demonstrates a walk, trot and canter both directions on both leads in an arena
  • While being ridden; demonstrates successful upward and downward transitions as well as stopping and backing up
  • Trail riding; successfully completes trail rides demonstrating confidence and competence

What are people saying about Starting Young Horses?

Here are some testimonials of our clients
  • "I have had the wonderful experience of starting a young horse’s training from 9 months old with Ben, using Natural Horsemanship techniques, for all the education of my beautiful Partbred Andalusian filly. Ben has guided all her handling, float education, hoof management and breaking-in, and now he is teaching me to re-learn how to ride her in a sensitive and mutually understanding way. After almost 50 years of horsemanship and riding how amazing it is to discover there is still so much to learn!"
