Apprenticeship
Program
So
that we can meet the needs of both your budget
and your time, we are NOW offering discounted
and flexible apprenticeship programs
for 2009!
Rider Horsemanship's Apprenticeship Programs
are designed to maximize your time and learning.
Unlike clinic environments, where there are
many students working at one time, the apprenticeship
program accepts only 1-3 students at a time.
Your experience here at Rider Horsemanship includes
hands-on training from Caroline herself as well
as time spent learning with her horses (as well
as your own).
Your training will include the following studies:
- Introduction
into horse psychology, behavior and language.
- Study
and application of Tao of Horsemanship™
DVD series.
- Classical dressage principles
combined with the Rider Horsemanship® Approach
to developing a calm, confident, soft, light,
responsive and willing partner in your horse.
Classical dressage exercises will involve
basic, foundation work that focuses on emotional
and physical strengthening, suppling and softening
exercises, smooth and subtle cues, w/t/c transitions
through the seat; leg yields; simple lead
changes; reining basics; jumping basics and
more.
