About the class

Step into the world of stress-free float loading with our comprehensive training program, "Foundation for Stress Free Float Loading". Whether you're a seasoned horse handler or new to the world of equine training, our program offers a step-by-step approach to help your horse confidently enter a trailer with ease.

🐴 What to Expect:

  1. Understanding Flight Training: Dive into the psychology of horses and their natural instinct to flee from perceived threats. Learn how to identify signs of flight trauma and tailor your training approach accordingly.
  2. Progressive Training Techniques: Explore gentle methods focused on patience, positive reinforcement, and gradual progression. Break down the loading process into manageable steps to ensure a smooth learning experience for both you and your horse.
  3. Building Trust and Confidence: Foster a positive bond between you and your horse by creating a safe and comfortable environment during training sessions. Patience, consistency, and empathy are key to building trust and confidence.
  4. Addressing Stressors: Identify and address any stressors associated with trailer loading, such as noise, motion, or confinement. Gradually expose your horse to these stressors in a controlled environment to help desensitise them and build confidence.
  5. Safety First: Prioritise safety throughout the training process, ensuring the well-being of both you and your horse. Set clear end goals and maintain a focus on safety at all times.

🌿 Benefits:

  • Confident Loading: Equip your horse with the skills and confidence to enter a trailer calmly and confidently.
  • Improved Communication: Strengthen your bond with your horse through effective communication and understanding.
  • Stress-Free Transport: Minimise stress and anxiety associated with trailer loading, creating a more pleasant experience for both you and your horse.
  • Positive Relationship: Build a positive and trusting relationship with your horse based on mutual respect and understanding.
