Most training styles will NEVER completely FIX your horse and here’s why.

For starters, they focus on controlling the horse instead of teaching the horse self-control.

Traditional training teaches you how to control the horse through pain, force, excessive pressure, and mechanics. Don’t agree, get rid of all your aids and develop the horse from start to finish with just a rope halter, lead and lunge whip.

There’s nothing natural about Natural Horsemanship, not when it teaches you how to control the horse through operant conditioning (pressure and release) and repetitive mechanics they call “connection”.

Science-based training such as Positive Reinforcement (R+) is just as excessive in its level of control. The only difference is it uses food, a basic need of the horse, to control the horse’s behavior. Take the food away and what’s motivating the horse to participate?

R+/R- Reinforcement is just another name for operant conditioning and uses positive and negative reinforcement. And, finally, we have the gentle horse training methods. These methods emphasize the horse’s well-being yet, like the other’s fail in teaching people how to interact and work with horses the way the horse needs and respects.

After 20+ years of evidence-based research, with thousands of domestic and wild horses, Caroline Beste (founder of Tao of Horsemanship) developed a 100% PROVEN training style that does WORK FOR THE HORSE – all horses, any situation. It’s called HOLISTIC HORSEMANSHIP.
