Communication . Confidence . Trust
.jpg)
At Golden Reins we like to think of our horses more as partners that we build relationships with. We start using rhythm and relaxation to develop both the horse and the riders skills. As our horses progress we challenge them in other areas such as straightness and balance to enable their ability to perform at an athletic level. Our goal is to become part of their herd by gaining thier trust. This creates a more relaxed, friendly, and willing horse. We do not rush our horses into performing with quick fixes but dig deeper to find the whys, whats, hows, and whens in riding.
