Natural Lifemanship students regularly tell us that they desire deeper intimacy with their horse, but they wonder if things like riding and even competition can be done with connection. Can we move more deeply into the horsemanship realm without power, domination, and control? The quick answer is YES! How does one continue to deepen connection with their horse through NL relationship principles?

Please join us for this intimate 3-day, small group training in which you will get focused and specific support no matter where you are on your horsemanship journey. Learn the principles for building a healthy and healing relationship with a horse at your level of need.
Participants will learn by watching demos and through experiential practice of ground work and riding. The primary focus will be on how to build appropriate foundations that then transfer as the relationship deepens through mounted work. Healthy connection (with consent) will be progressively built through observation, shared space, engagement, attachment, detachment, touch, communication (for stopping, going, backing up, turning, lifting feet, etc.), haltering, saddling, and mounting. There will, of course, be a focus on body awareness, body control, posture, etc. This is nuanced work as we become aware of our own regulation and intention while also noticing when our horse is giving consent through presence and deep connection.
Don’t just learn...FEEL how horsemanship can be when relationships are equitable, secure, and flourishing.
