I clearly remember many, many years when I was doing my GCSE in Horsemanship (Yes, it was a thing, an actual school exam, equivalent to O levels, in Horses) at the local riding school. It was a two ye...

Attendance or Attainment. What does the differenc Attendance or Attainment. What does the difference mean to you?⁠ Attendance is to attend something. To have made an appearance. Attainment is to achieve.⁠ A lot of courses are only aimed at giving enough information so that participants can answer the questions. “Here is a 100-page book to study… You really only need to read chapter 5 and read the list of past questions on page 89, because that’s where the exam questions come from”. ⁠ How often have you heard that one? I have. And that, I think, is attendance, not attainment.⁠ To this end, when I was Chief Instructor for the Pony Club, all the older kids had to lecture the younger ones. The older C+ kids lectured the E and D kids. The B and A test kids lectured the D+’s and C’s. It freed up instructor’s time, but it was mainly to clarify things for the older kids.⁠ ⁠ If you can’t explain to a 10-year-old how to assemble a bridle, maybe you don’t understand it well enough yourself…⁠ ⁠ When I learnt to dive, we took it really slow. My dive instructor was pedantic about safety and understanding. We went through the theory, we did all the drills, we worked out the compass and plotting on land. We tested, learnt, practiced, practiced. It helped that he was my friend. It helped that we had no rush. It helped that he taught some of the world’s biggest VIP’s and so had to be ultra-cautious. ⁠ And, I learnt properly, carefully, thoroughly, and so it made sense.A couple of years ago, I did a two-day free diving course. There was a set syllabus. Morning one – yoga practice. Pool practice. Afternoon one, yoga practice, pool practice. Skills 1, 2, 3, 4. Day two, pool practice, afternoon, sea practice, you WILL dive to 20m, stay 30 seconds, come back up. ⁠ The instructor was disinterested.⁠ He had a list to follow, we were drilled through his list. He damn near drowned me, and I didn’t finish the course. He was unprepared and only had one thought in mind – to get through his two days.⁠ See the difference?⁠ ⁠ As a pupil, which way would you rather learn? As an instructor, honestly, how do you teach?
Two of the extremes of keeping horses - the lush,⁠⠀ tropical, heat of Malaysia and the dry, dusty heat of⁠⠀ Spain.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Both have benefits and challenges, neither are totally⁠⠀ horse friendly, but with planning attention to detail⁠⠀ and an open mind to new ideas, both can work well.⁠⠀ ~⁠⠀ ~⁠⠀ ~⁠⠀ ~⁠⠀ #horsemanship #barrelracingtips #equestrianism #horselovers #horsehealth #naturalhorse #equinehealth #naturalhorsecare #performancehorse #equinetherapy #equinebodywork #horsetherapy #equinerehab #equinemassage #seniorhorse #horserehab #horsesupplies #minihorse #naturalhoofcare #healthyhorse #farrierlife #barefoottrim #naturalhorse #hooftrimming #hoofcare #barefoothorse #hooves #navicular #equineanatomy #horsesteeth
Steering is one of the most difficult tasks for yo Steering is one of the most difficult tasks for young riders to learn. Some children battle with spatial awareness even on their own feet, never mind when having to judge a pony’s four legs and long length too.⁠ ⁠ The most common mistakes a rider can make are leaning forward or backward; pulling the steering hand too far away from the pony’s neck; bringing both hands over the pony’s neck and bringing the opposite hand above the turning hand as if using a steering wheel.⁠ ⁠ There are lots of games and exercises to help with steering practice. The most common is bending poles. Put several markers, cones or jump uprights (without pole cups) in a straight line, about 6 – 10 metres apart. The rider then has to slalom their way through the poles with touching any, passing to the right, left and right of each. Often the easiest way to explain this is to talk about how a snake moves across the ground, in a smooth, easy pattern of looping semi circles. They don’t jerk or make sharp corners, just flow gently around. Practice the poles in walk and later in trot.⁠ ⁠ Want to know more exercises for steering. - Check out my blog ⁠ ⁠ https://kudaguru.com/steering-for-young-riders/
