S.A.F.E.R. Horsemanship accredited program

The SAFER WAY TO WORK WITH HORSES

 Safely achieving harmony with your horse utilizing proven effective methods based on mutual respect and understanding between horse and human that transcends seamlessly between English and Western styles/disciplines, whether you just love horses, are a recreational rider/owner or have a view to compete. S.A.F.E.R. Horsemanship can hold the reins to your happiness with horses. 

 

Whether you grew up on a farm, just love learning about horses, recently joined the new breed of 'COVID horse owner' generation or are just looking for a pro-active, SAFER method to develop a harmonious partnership with horses, our Certified professionals will set you up for success. 

Everyone is welcome!

 You can be 7 years old or 70 years old and our style of natural horsemanship & classical methods work because S.A.F.E.R. Horsemanship is not based on intimidation, 'manhandling', or Olympic level agility. It’s based on an understanding, horse psychology, and better communication.   

Safe starts with simple!

 Our Certified professionals break down all of the concepts, exercises, and information into well thought out steps. From SAFE horse handling skills to achievable goals, fun learning, effective horsemanship and respect have kept our students happily in love with their horses.  

Helping You Achieve Harmonious SUCCESS!

 You can achieve a harmonious partnership with your horse, or almost any horse or pony.  We have hundreds of testimonials from students who have been in our programs, people just like you, that are having unimaginable success with their horse. Our proven S.A.F.E.R. Horsemanship skills set is endorsed by Olympic and World Champion riders and trainers.  Our graduates go on to be respected, knowledgeable and capable horse people, who frequently return to the farm as special guest instructors, trainers and riders. Our graduates have been successful in combining their love of horses and their professional lives. 

Keeping it fun!

 Our Certified instructors focus on helping horse & human love learning and becoming a “yes team!.” This makes the whole process of teaching new things to your horses (& humans) much easier, faster, safer, and enjoyable for all involved. 

True, Trusted & Effective

 S.A.F.E.R. Horsemanship has been effectively used with top show horses, off the track Thoroughbreds and Standardbreds, with rescues, and second chance horses that other trainers/owners had given up on... horses & ponies of all breeds and ages (and their humans) have benefited from the effective methods of S.A.F.E.R. Horsemanship. 

Realizing & Respecting

From the ground to the saddle, S.A.F.E.R. Horsemanship gives you the skills you need to:

  • Realize what your body language is saying, how your energy affects your horse (unmounted/mounted) 
  • Understand what your horse’s body language is saying, why they are saying “no”  (unmounted/mounted)
  • Learn to help your horse feel relaxed and focused with you
  •  Learn how to communicate with your horse, be their leader, motivate your horse to learn, address 'unwanted' or problem behaviors, introduce new things and more.
  • Learn how to be pro-active and progress your horse forward organically, with mile markers on your way to achieving your goals.
  • Giving your horse a solid foundation and the proper education to have a high quality of life. 
  • Ideal for rescued/young/projects/prospects/recreational/family/trail/show/ex-racehorses
  • Understand conformation, movement, form v. function, what you can change and what you can't change, but can make better 

Setting You Up For Success

 Learn to ride English or Western in harmony and balance with your horse for happiness. We welcome recreational riders, returning riders, newbies and those with a view to compete. Excellent step-by-step method for new horse owners and new-to- horses people and families. Let S.A.F.E.R. Horsemanship set your horse and you up for success!
