-Small movements that makes big improvements.
This intensive online course is all about working in halt from the ground.
You will take a huge leap forward in your halt work and have things to work with for months after.
We will work with improving your horse's body awareness and balance. Dive in to details and look at how your horse use
their different body parts in different exercises.
This is a practical course with loads of feedback. We'll do exercises that will improve all your other work in
movement.
The work in halt will train your eye for small
details and greatly improve your feel and timing.

Horse
A sound horse or pony, calm around food.
You don't need to be able to do any fancy stuff but since we will work with a lot of details you need a solid understanding for parking and standing on a mat. If you want to work in liberty or in tack depends on what you want to focus on.
We will adapt all exercises to you and your horse but ultimately your horse will be the one setting the pace.
Human
Some mats (at least 2, great if they are of different thickness), a hand held target and a variety of food reinforcers.
Somewhere to work (arena, paddock, stable etc).
A smart phone or video cam to film with and a YouTube account where to upload video.
A Facebook account. All feedback will be delivered via a private FB group.
Feedback
At the heart of this course is the practical work you'll do together with your horse. All feedback is uploaded in a private Facebook group. You will have access to the group for 3 months after the course is done.
You get personalized feedback on your work every weekday. And follow your course mates' progress and feedback as well. You are a part of the learning experience for the other participants so it is important that you actually have time to train.
This will give you a broad picture of the work in halt and how we can adapt it to the needs of different horses.
You can only join as an active participant.
We start where you’re at which makes for variations of the exercises and the progress. We are not looking for perfection but how to best help our horse and evolve as trainers. Each horse will do the exercises a bit different and that is as it should be.
