My Greatest"Achievement Summer 2009 -------------------------------------------- Working student in the EQUINE Industry 1 National Champion. 4 National Qualifiers. 6 Regional Champions. 1 Girl’s hard work, patience, dedication.
I am very proud of my work at the Royal Lusitano. Working with horses involves much introspection and reflection. Through the horses, I learned so much about myself and surprisingly how to better relate from people. To win nationally on top is incredible to me.
Future Continue to learn from the horses in my life, about myself, patience, mental presence and body language, and management of people.
Insights -------------------------------------------- Mirrors Horses are mirrors of their humans. I was taught to stay present in the moment, to breathe deep, and to bring a positive attitude to work everyday.
Management Like every individual, horses respond differently to different techniques. Everything comes down to pressure. Ask politely, increase until desired result is achieved, and then back down to lowest pressure.
Balance Learned to balance desires from multiple clients and trainers.
