What Makes Callie Different
Many riding instructors tell riders WHAT to do, but I teach riders HOW and WHY, so they can REPLICATE the things they learn from me.
I remember what it was like when I was first taking lessons. During instruction, I could do the moves, but once I got home, I felt clueless and incompetent. Because I didn’t know the reasons behind the moves I had been taught, it was as if I was just trying to remember the steps. So I had to figure out what was wrong on my own, and I did.
Years later, when I made the decision to become a certified instructor, I knew there had to be a better way to teach people how to master riding and communicating with their horses.
I set my students free to learn not just the “what to do” but the how and why, so they can become independent thinkers and riders.
As an instructor, I’m unique in that I teach riding and training from a 3-pronged or pyramid approach. I don’t just teach “riding” or “natural horsemanship” or “dressage” — I use pertinent methods and concepts from each these proven techniques:
- I use Natural Horsemanship as my horse training and horse psychology foundation;
- Then I use Centered Riding™ as my riding foundation; and
- I use Dressage as my horse bio-mechanics and soundness training.
While you will be able to apply what you learn with me to riding other horses, the focus of our lessons together will be on YOU and YOUR horse. Not only will I teach you the skills you need for riding, but I will also teach you how to train your horse to work with you.
I take the time to listen to what your goals are and what’s important to you as a rider. I will watch you ride and diagnose what you need to work on to improve your seat, balance and communication with your horse.
I have been trained to teach according to your natural learning style and will modify my method of teaching to help your skill level improve with ease.
I will also discuss horse training and psychology, so you really learn how and why to communicate clearly, fairly, and effectively with your horse. Only then can the partnership between you and your horse grow in harmony.
Callie has a passion for sharing her love and knowledge about horses with others.
