Enhanced Riding Through Enhanced Relationship

April, 2009

An intensive five-day workshop, Power of Two is designed for any level of rider seeking to improve the quality of their riding experience. By opening your heart to the wisdom of the horse, you will form a deeper connection to, and enhance the partnership with your horse. Your connection with your horse will improve as you rely on your inner wisdom and insight to know what both you and your horse need. The intuition of horses is their primary resource for survival; they are fantastic teachers when we can slow down and listen.

The Premise of this unique clinic is this: The quality of your riding experience is directly related to the quality of your relationship with your horse.

Awareness and Congruity are the elements that build an authentic relationship with a horse.

“A deeply ceremonial experience which empowered me to see, touch and embrace the magick and mystery of my relationship with my horse – and has inspired me to take it back into my everyday world.”
- Samena Jeffery, Hillsdale, Ontario

Horses in the wild live in herds, and are sensitively attuned to the emotions of the herd and of any other living things nearby. This is a matter of survival. If one horse senses a hungry predator approaching, the whole herd needs to respond instantly as one. How does this apply to riding? Listen to one of our participants:

“I am free-longeing our warmblood gelding in the large arena. He is doing a beautiful, energetic trot. I think to myself, ‘when he reaches the far corner, I’ll ask him to walk’, picturing this in my mind’s eye. In the instant I think the word ’walk’, he slows to a walk.”

We teach you how to be aware of your body, how to use your emotions as information, and how to translate this into better relationship and better riding.

The Power of Two brings together a unique team of instructors, including two Epona Advanced Facilitators, an Equine Massage teacher, a human Massage Therapist, and more.
