Natural Gait HorsemanshipJack Emory Basic Philosophy of "Natural Gait Horsemanship". The concepts, style and techniques used by "Natural Gait Horsemanship" in their training programs can be expressed with well known terms such as "natural", "conditioned response", "feel-timing- balance", "less is more", etc. These terms are not often heard in the world of soft gaited horses and this is why the "Natural Gait Horsemanship" programs were developed. Bringing natural horsemanship practices into the training of the soft gaited horse is their focus. |
Colt Starting and Training
Jack schooling Sunfire's Design a 3 year old TWHBEA gelding. Building a strong foundation with the horse is the primary focus for all training the first several years of a horse's life. A complete (finished) horse must be developed in mind, body and spirit. All aspects of training should address this criteria while accomplishing training goals. A solid foundation will prepare the horse for a lifetime of learning experiences. In general, the more "broke" a horse is, the better life they and their owners can expect. |
