What Can Harris Horsemanship Do For You?

The beginner, intermediate and advanced levels of the foundation training program that Chip Harris teaches is the same program that is required learning for every member of the U.S. Olympic equestrian team. These same philosophies and techniques are the basis for the horse training, colt starting and difficult horse training programs that Harris Horsemanship utilizes.

Harris Horsemanship has many ways to direct you toward being a true student of the horse as well as achieving your own personal goals of obtaining a partnership with horses. One of the first things you need to do as a horse enthusiast is set yourself down and take a realistic look at what aspects of your relationship with horses are most important to you to develop. Also you need to evaluate the amount of time and effort you are going to realistically be able to devote to these aspects. In other words, set up your priorities for success by not letting your goals get scattered from trying to learn in too many directions before you have the foundation to do so.

Then let Harris Horsemanship help guide you in the direction you wish to follow by suggesting the programs that will be most beneficial to your personal horsemanship path.

For the large majority of natural horsemanship enthusiasts today the most beneficial knowledge for them to obtain, to fuel their goals, is directly tied in with the communication skills needed to achieve the foundation of partnership. These skills are learned through knowing the rules to the games of dominance that horses use to communicate with each other. The beginner, intermediate and advanced levels of natural horsemanship are where you obtain these skills, also known as foundation training.

With good foundation skills you can then achieve excellence in reining, jumping, roping, dressage, trail riding, cutting & cattle working, colt starting and so on.
