KnP Training and Lessons’ Methods Give Real Results:

  • They have been proven to work for hundreds of people, and all types and ages horses throughout modern history
  • Everything is black or white and easy to follow for both horses and owners
  • Everything is based on the psychology of the horse and how they naturally interact with each other and their surroundings
  • We only use 3 training aids; dressage whip, training stick, and sometimes a martingale
  • We teach you how to train for yourself

 

Every horse is an individual and training will be tailored for each individual horse and their owner’s needs.  A horse’s age, maturity, health, and beginning training level will affect how quickly it will progress in training.  More advanced skills such as flying leading changes may take several months of training to achieve.   Your horse will return home; easier to handle, more respectful both on the ground and in the saddle, with a better headset, more willing, much more responsive to your legs, smoother and steadier in all gaits, and lighter in the mouth.
