“CONNECTING WITH HORSES” course with MEL FLEMING
in the NORTHERN RIVERS, NSW area.

JULY - 4-6 - BALLINA RDA, TEVEN, NSW

CONNECTION, FEEL & BIOMECHANICS – are the focus areas for this course - the key ingredients to developing an amazing partnership with your horse.

This for people that are looking to:-

🌿 Create perfect partnerships,
🌿 Problem solve behavioural issues,
🌿 Deeply connect with their horse (know how they think and how they feel)
🌿 Start developing their horse’s body with optimal biomechanics for health, happiness and performance. Developing the horse’s body on the ground is especially important for ridden horses or preparing a young horse to be ridden.

This is a groundwork only course – it is the introduction to all my teaching.
More advanced courses are Liberty work, Positive Reinforcement, Confidence Building for Horse & Human, Riding with Synchronicity, Postural Development for Pleasure and Performance Horses.

If you are looking for a way of being with horses that horse’s love, where your horse is truly happy, and enjoys the interaction of ground play and riding just as much as you - then this way of being and working with horses is for you.

I look forward to helping you, your horse and others, have a happy, safe and successful horse life.

Where you feel good about your interactions with your horse, where your partnership is pleasurable and you truly can achieve your dreams with horses.

CREATE THE HORSE OF YOUR DREAMS,
BY BECOMING THE HUMAN YOUR HORSE DREAMS OF
