    Solving Horse Problems: Do they feel safe? Do they understand? Are they motivated? with specialist young horse trainer: Connie Colfox

    I stumbled across the amazing Connie Colfox on Horse & Country TV watching her use positive reinforcement to help top eventing riders with ‘problem’ horse behaviours.   She was able to really impress these riders with how quickly she could change these talented horse’s minds about something they were struggling with.    In the words of Connie: “We really want horses to feel comfortable in the world they live in. By giving them a broad grounding with positive reinforcement we build trust to take on the challenges we encounter together”.   I was particularly interested in what she said around the 23-minute mark of this episode, and I agree that what she mentions here is a huge part of horses performing beyond their natural capabilities - and conversely why sometimes performance drops despite better riding!   I found Connie to be extremely humble, despite her decades of horse experience and knowledge, and she shares a balanced view and open approach to horsemanship, forever observing and learning from the horse.    If you have a horse with some ‘problem’ behaviours or you are a performance rider curious about how positive reinforcement could help your horse, you will love this episode with Connie!

    New Horse, Now What? Start Off On The Right Path With Your New Horse | Relationship, Groundwork, & Riding

    Often people will contact me for help with their new, young, or green horse.    It’s sometimes not until we have a new horse that we become curious and start to question how we can ‘best’ set up this new relationship.    Problems may arise with a new horse that we might not have had with a previous one, and we wonder how we can best help them.    It’s common to be a little afraid of making mistakes with a new horse, as not to ‘tarnish’ the new relationship.   In this episode, I talk about how you can start off on the ‘right’ path with your new horse so that you can have a healthy happy relationship with them AND achieve your riding goals. _______   EXTRA RESOURCES TO HELP YOU AND YOUR HORSE:   Discover a deeper connection & communication with your horse with this free mini-course at www.amaliadempsey.com/ccmc   Sign up for weekly Horsemanship Breakthrough emails, where each week I send you a little bite-sized horsemanship breakthrough that has helped me on my journey, in the hope that it will also help you with your horse.

    The Art of Classical Equitation with Belinda Bolsenbroek

    Make a better life for horses... ~𝑩𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒅𝒂 𝑩𝒐𝒍𝒔𝒆𝒏𝒃𝒓𝒐𝒆𝒌   Belinda rides dressage in a way that makes you stop and go: 'I want what she's got!'   The horses look happy, athletic, and light. She is poised, elegant, and clearly an effective rider with very subtle aids.   It's how dressage is supposed to be!   When I saw videos of Belinda riding (and hearing her chat with Manolo Mendez and Andrew Turnball), I just *had* to interview her on the podcast to hear more and share her horsemanship ethos with the world...   Belinda Bolsenbroek is an international authority on the Art of Classical Equitation in which the historic relationship between horse and human is expressed as a spiritual connection between two beings.    Belinda harnesses the wisdom of the Old Masters, combines that wisdom with the science of biomechanics and shapes them both into a clear and defined practice that allows you to take your horsemanship to the next level.   In this episode, we discuss:   ⚜️ Belinda’s upbringing with horses from competitive riding on Dutch warmbloods, international competition, Olympic ambitions and her turning point towards classical dressage. ⚜️ Belinda’s healthy and holistic approach to training horses. ⚜️ The evolution of competitive dressage and why many classical riders don’t compete. ⚜️ How contact should feel when it is based on connection not force. ⚜️ Belinda’s interests in the thoracic sling, and nervous system of the horse. ⚜️ The importance of reflection and questioning in your horsemanship journey. ⚜️ Belinda’s viewpoint on contact with the reins and how it should feel.  ⚜️ Her interesting answer to the favourite horse purchase question! I think Belinda might be starting a new trend with this one! ⚜️ All the usual fun horsemanship breakthroughs questions. ⚜️ Plus so much more!   You can find out more about Belinda and her resources here:   Website: https://www.belindabolsenbroek.academy/   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/belindabolsenbroek.academy   _______ Discover a deeper connection & communication with your horse with this free mini-course at www.amaliadempsey.com/ccmc   Sign up for weekly Horsemanship Breakthrough emails, where each week I send you a little bite-sized horsemanship breakthrough that has helped me on my journey, in the hope that it will also help you with your horse.
