ALL IN ONE FREE WEEKEND
A grounded place to learn, reflect, and gain clarity together

☆ INSIDE THE FAIR ARENAS ☆

This arena is all about the heart of the horse–human relationship. You’ll learn how clarity, feel, and understanding shape everything else. Learn from Andrew McLean, Warwick Schiller, Ariana Sakaris, Chris Ellsworth, Don Jessop, Patrick King, and many others.

☆ Clearer communication that helps your horse feel calm and helps you feel confident

☆ More softness and willingness instead of brace, resistance, or shutdown

☆ Joy and trust restored after tough moments in the saddle

☆ A true partnership feel so communication no longer feels like effort or control

☆ Better insight into what your horse needs so you can respond with compassion, clarity, and care

This arena supports the whole rider, including mindset, body, and nervous system, helping you feel more grounded, confident, and at ease so your horse can feel it too. Inside this arena, you’ll learn from Lucie Klaassen, Renae Falcinella, Anna Bergenstrahle, Donna Snyder-Smith, and many others.

☆   Quiet fear and worry that hold so many riders back, so you can step into the saddle with ease

☆   Create balance and flow in your position, so your horse feels lighter, safer, and more connected with every stride

☆   Build resilience after setbacks, helping you find joy and confidence again, no matter the challenge

☆   Strengthen body awareness through simple movements that prepare you and your horse for smoother, more harmonious rides

☆   Experience the relief of knowing what to do   when nerves arise, so tension dissolves instead of building

Whole-horse insights that support movement, comfort, and emotional well-being, so your horse can truly thrive. Inside this arena, you’ll learn from Linda Tellington-Jones, Dr. Stephen Peters, Robyn Hood, David Lichman, and many others.

☆   Explore the biomechanics of balance so your training supports relaxation, confidence, and long-term soundness

☆   Follow step-by-step guidance that helps your horse stay calm and gain confidence in challenging situations, so they feel secure even when life doesn’t go as planned

☆   Learn to notice subtle expressions and micro-movements your horse is already communicating, so you can respond early and prevent problems before they begin

☆   Build species-appropriate enrichment that supports emotional resilience, helping stress behaviors give way to calm, connected moments

☆   Evaluate saddle impact on comfort and movement so your horse can move freely and willingly, without pain or resistance

Thank you for being here.

This year feels especially meaningful for so many of us who share our lives with horses. More than ever, we’re aware of how deeply they shape our growth, our choices, and the people we’re becoming.

The Online Horse Fair is my way of honoring that relationship.

It’s a space where trainers and teachers come together who respect the horse, value the human experience, and believe learning can be thoughtful, supportive, and genuinely enjoyable. A place where curiosity is welcomed and there’s room to find what truly fits you and your horse.

I’m really glad you found your way here.
