During the Immersion Course:

  • Learn how to school horses effectively and intelligently without using force.
  • Develop harmony on our school masters or your own horse through improving your knowledge and skills.
  • Learn how to teach horses to be responsive and finely tuned, utilising the core strength of your torso and an independent seat, thereby allowing you to employ light rein and leg aids.
  • Understand why firm rein and legs aids upset horses, limiting their ability to perform with athleticism, elastic expression and enjoyment.
