This evening talk is all about how the horse’s brain works and how this influences training and performance. All riders and horse owners can really benefit from understanding how the structure of the brain determines they way that horses learn and what influences their behaviour and progress in training.
During the talk we will look at the ways in which the brains of horses and humans are different (and the same!), we will explain the horse’s natural flight and fight response and discuss some specific ways in which you can improve your horses ability to learn, improve responses to your aids and optimise your training sessions.
Amanda will also explain, from a neurological perspective, why it is impossible to have a ‘naughty horse’! She will also cover the human/horse nervous system connection and how the interplay between these affects the ability of the partnership to learn and develop.
