The internet is full of fantastic resources.
Before the world wide web, tapping into resources as a horse trainer may have meant traveling or working solely within the local community. Today, you can find information from various places around the globe that can help you improve your performance and make a great impression on your owners. Here are five online resources for equine trainers that are worth following.
Horse and Hound
Horse and Hound out of the UK provides training tips in multiple equine disciplines, including dressage and show jumping. A vast catalog of past blog posts includes advice and information on anything you can think of when it comes to horses. The training goes beyond just the horses and provides ways for riders to overcome anxiety and live healthful lives with their horses.
Straightness Training
From Portugal by way of The Netherlands, Straightness Training is a website with a blog and podcast for all things equine. Founder Marijke de Jong’s message and mission is one of living in synchronicity with your horses to reduce stress and discomfort for everyone. She also offers an academy for students of straightness training from around the world.
Carson James
Caron James comes from a long tradition of cattle ranchers and cowboys. He’s ridden horses all his life, and his blog and podcast provide inside information about his years of experience. He takes the approach that there isn’t one correct answer across the board but that horses and riders need to work together to learn individual training techniques based on their relationship.
Virtual Horse Help
Virtual Horse Help is a repository of training videos and blog posts from trainers and equine experts from locations worldwide. The website offers insight from founder Tom McCutcheon and his team for any questions about your horses and training. If you can’t find what you need in the video archives, you can ask your inquiry directly.
Equine Behaviorist
Canadian equine behaviorist Lauren Fraser has created an online resource for owners and trainers to find out how to train their horses and why. Sometimes, training isn’t just about getting a horse to do what you want but understanding how to get the horse to want to do it. Her background as an expert is apparent across the board.
