Why is this course different from other online courses you may have taken?

This course is not your typical step-by-step, linear course. Many people lose interest in linear courses because they can be overwhelming and require a big commitment. This course is not like that. This course is a resource library courtesy of Agi Yother that will cover a variety of training topics from her healthy biomechanics training program she calls "Stall to Saddle."  Topics included will be groundwork, stationary saddlework, relaxation techniques, biomechanics and ridden work, posture shaping, positive reinforcement training, enrichment, core exercises for horses, and many more. Each month, for a minimum of 24 months, a new topic will be added, sort of like a magazine. There will be lessons with Agi, an assignment to practice at home, a helpful tip, and one of Agi's exercises that she does to improve her ability to ride. You may navigate the course at your discretion, skipping things that interest you and going back to review ones you enjoyed or missed. You are welcome to ask questions of Agi and/or join the conversation in the course discussion with every lesson.

 For a one-time purchase price you get the existing course content and all new topics that will be added monthly for the life of the platform.

It is time to do better - become the partner your horse would like you to be.

"I teach awareness of how our actions impact our horses. From handling on the ground to under-saddle work, my focus is on teaching students how a horse thinks and reacts to our movement." - Agi Yother
