🧠 Why Horse Training Matters (And Why Most People Get It Wrong)
Horseback riding can be a deeply rewarding experience—but it also comes with serious risks. Each year, thousands of riders suffer injuries due to poorly trained horses. Shockingly, horseback riders are statistically more likely to be injured than motorcyclists, with accidents occurring as often as every 350 hours of riding.
The root cause? Improper training.
A horse that hasn’t been trained properly is unpredictable. It might bolt, kick, bite, or simply not listen to commands. This not only makes riding frustrating—it can make it dangerous.
But with the right knowledge, you can change that.
This guide teaches you how to educate your horse through patience, understanding, and consistent interaction. You’ll learn how to become the leader your horse respects—not fears—and how to eliminate risky behaviors before they become habits.
