Training

Whether the ultimate goal is for basic trail riding or complicated intense equine activities like jumping or dressage, training your horse is necessary if you want to work together.    What is natural behaviour for a horse has little to do with reins, saddles, or bits, so the horse has to learn a form of basic communication that involves man and his implements.

While there may be several suitable ways to train a horse you should consider more than the training method.  What is most appropriate to your horse and to your situation?  What experience or successes has the trainer had?

It will be obvious when you find the right trainer.  Its not just about references or credentials or loving horses.  Your horse will respond most willingly to, and learn more efficiently from, a trainer who knows his work and loves doing it.

At Fayebrook we train horses with a gentle yet firm technique, one that through wisdom and experience has developed over several decades.  It started with Carla's father and though it may have been modified somewhat over the years, Carla and Rene keep to the basic method Carla's father taught her.  The success of this training method can be measured by the responsiveness of the horse and its willingness to learn. Consideration is given to the capabilities and limitations of the horse and progresses at a pace that ensure the horse experiences accomplishment.

In the corals at  Fayebrook there is a great deal of enjoyment and satisfaction from both the horses and the trainers.
