EP194: Enrichment With Mary Richards

EP194: Enrichment With Mary Richards

In this episode I am joined by Mary Richards to talk about enrichment which is basically about how to keep our horses in a way that allows them to be the happiest horses they can be. I think you’ll really love this conversation where we’ll learn how even small changes can make a big difference. You’ll learn about Social, Cognitive, Sensory, & Physical Enrichment.

EP193: Best of HTIH: Complicating Half Halts

Complicating Half Halts

This episode re-introduces a popular episode from the archives about the famous (infamous) half halt. The half halt is an important concept in dressage – AND it’s a term I actually rarely use. I get a lot of questions about it, and anyone who has studied dressage or has taken dressage lessons has been asked to do a half halt. If you’ve ever been confused about what a half halt is or how to do it keep on listening to this original episode on half halts.
