FreEquine.
Our training and education philosophy: Freequine training works with the horse to be free to use his body properly to reduce strain and injury.
Freequine riding means that tension and rigidity are eliminated, reducing the rider’s conflict with the horse’s movement. Energy and pressure are used to create synchronicity between horse and rider, while the rider’s body position is efficient, exerting control rather than communicating by force.
FreEquine Horsemanship classes cover basic horsemanship, groundwork, handling, grooming, tacking,saddling andsaddle fitting, horse education, aptitude testing, centred riding, natural balance, rhythm and equine psychology.

Come to the edge."
"We can't. We're afraid."
"Come to the edge."
"We can't. We will fall!"
"Come to the edge."
And they came.
And he pushed them. And they flew.
