Horse Agility Lessons with the Mustangs are done in-hand, on the ground providing the opportunity to learn & practice your new horse Whispering skills and explore new challenges in a safe and fun way.
What is Horse Agility?
Horse Agility is a fun, positive way to build trust and improve the partnership between horse and handler.
It comprises a variety of obstacles which provide progressive challenges testing skill and level of trust.
It can be enjoyed either on or off the lead rein and is a fabulous way to help improve relationships between horse and human and is a great alternative to riding.
There are only two hard and fast rules: stay safe and have fun.
The Power of Play
Suitable for age 12 - adult "Scientists have recently determined that it takes approximately 400 repetitions to create a new synapse in the brain – unless it is done with play, in which case, it takes between 10 and 20 repetitions!” – Dr Karyn Purvis

This is true for both horse and human, learning any new skill or way of being occurs much faster if we take a playful approach play, its also a great antidote for stress, anxiety or depression
Will your horse trust you enough to takle a scary obstacle
Will they choose to leave their friends and follow you without a rope
