Episode 301 Christa Culbert Pt 3 Teaching Children

Equiosity

In this episode Christa shares effective strategies for bringing horses and children together. She reminds us, among other things, to play. So many riding programs normalize brutality by teaching children you have to “make your pony mind”. They are told to hit their pony to make him go. In this episode we describe alternatives. We imagine what children growing up with clicker training represents will do as adults. They can be world changers because they will see the world in a new way. They will have the skills to show that there are alternatives. Everything is connected - children’s books, clicker training, teaching children and horses, training well, wanting the best for our horses. It’s part of every one of our 301 episodes. Train well and join us in celebrating Modern Horse Training and all that that means.
