This will be an off the horse training and social evening held at Woodlands Training.
The training will cover:
-
Travelling with horses, stress & dehydration.
-
Evaluating each horse, the influence of conformation, age, musculature & temperament.
-
Dressage; the training scale & progressive movements.
-
SJ the importance of flat work, walking the course, related distances, dog legs & combinations.
-
XC gears and lines, how to introduce corners, ditches, steps, water, gradients and develop confidence.
-
Dealing with horses after strenuous exercise and in hot humid conditions.
The evening will end with a Q&A session followed by hotdogs and Pimm's and a chance to chat, network, plan for future events and have a relaxed informal time.
We will be looking for someone willing to bring their horse. It will be easier talking about transport when there's something there to look at and will make discussions about conformation more realistic. Sarah will not have time to teach, but to see a horse working on the flat as she discusses the basics and then perhaps see them working over some practice fences.
