The Thinking Rider Challenge week is over!
We packed in so much learning we even surprised ourselves.
There were three ridden exercises with detailed explanations AND all the accompanying training on the three rider's toolboxes.
It's no surprise that lots of the challenge participants wanted to be able to keep the recordings and the supporting materials.
Even if you didn't take part in the Challenge you will be able to jump right in and start unpacking the toolboxes and finding out WHAT they are for, HOW to use them and WHY they are useful.
What does it mean to be a thinking rider?
A "thinking rider" is someone who analyzes a situation in order to find out the reason why something isn't working or why the horse is making a certain mistake. Then he/she applies his/her theoretical knowledge, experience, and intuition together to come up with a solution that addresses the root cause of the problem.
This training was recorded as part of a 5-Day Online Challenge with Shana and Dr. Thomas Ritter (held August 29-September 2, 2022)
