FOUNDATIONS OF CONSIDERATION

IS FOR YOU IF...

You're ready to try R+ training but don't know where to start - the amount of information out there feels overwhelming

You're looking to build a strong foundation to set you and your horse up for positive and successful riding, handling, and more

You've tried other programs that leave you and your horse frustrated, confused, and anxious about using food rewards

You're already a professional trainer looking to refine your skills and dive deeper into theory and application

You're ready to leave your doubts and fears behind, and embrace a new way of training and interacting with your horse

Foundations of Consideration: The Art and Science of Positive Reinforcement for Equines: is the third course in The Willing Equine’s three-part in-depth introduction to training your horse with positive reinforcement.

In part three of this comprehensive program, Foundations of Consideration will refine the skills learned in Foundations of Cooperation and introduce your horse to 3 more Foundation Behaviors. Designed to be taken after Foundations of Cooperation, this course will expand your knowledge and build on the concepts learned in the previous courses.

DURING THIS COURSE, YOU'LL LEARN HOW TO:

Train for Success

1

Avoid frustration for both you and your horse, create emotional balance, smooth mechanics, clear communication, & develop precise and flawless cues.

Balance the art & science of training

2

Learn how to apply the science, personalize training to your individual horse, increase creativity and enjoyment during sessions, and recognize when it's time to try something different.

Develop a Willing Partnership

Create a positive association with training for your horse by setting up your training environment for success, managing expectations, and recognizing discomfort and confusion.

3 YOU'LL CONTINUE TO REFINE THE BEHAVIORS LEARNED IN FOUNDATIONS OF COOPERATION,

AND INTRODUCE THE FOLLOWING FOUNDATION BEHAVIORS & CONCEPTS:

Stationary Mat

This behavior functions similarly to the stationary target, and is incredibly useful as a start button for hoof care, grooming, stationing, trailer loading, teaching the stand stay, and much more!

A key behavior for safety measures. As you can imagine, the backup comes in handy any time we need space or for the horse to move away from us. It's also really useful for therapeutic and strength-building purposes for future training.

Backing Up

Learn how to combine the foundation behaviors into various patterns, creating complex behavior chains. Understand how these behaviors create the foundation upon which all other training is built.
