“Starting” green horses

Creating winning partnerships where the horse comes first and foremost

Read our Training Series as it appears in

“The Rider” Magazine

 

Horses have a memory only second to an elephant.  “Start” them out correctly and they will remember the rest of their lives, and the rest of their training will be a great experience.    “Break” them and they will remember that for the rest of their lives as well.

 

At Symphony Stables we don’t break the spirit of the horse we work with it.  With the horse’s spirit intact  and on our side we create winning partnerships.

Starting pony for driving / riding

Making contact with “Carlo” the wild mustang

 

By the end of our “starting” program the

horse/human partnership will be doing the following:

 

· Standing quiet for grooming and picking up feet

· Walking quietly in hand

· Lunging quietly in proper form

· Standing still for mounting

· Walking off level headed

· Trotting off level headed

· Cantering off level headed

· Stopping level heading

· Bending in both directions at all gaits

 

The time needed to accomplish the above would depend on the individual horse and their past training / experiences.  For more info and pricing with regard to our “starting” please contact us.
