Colt starting should be low-stress and fun for everyone. PonyPros practices EQxpressionism, which is a combination of clicker training, natural horsemanship, trail riding, hunter/jumpers, and art of natural dressage. We start our colts bareback and use poles to help them see a purpose. In 3-5 rides they're out on the trail for easy migration and in 10 rides they're usually riding walk/trot over little crossrails.
Lilwen is a 2008 foal. She is being lightly started by PonyPros in preparation for going to her new home in Hawaii in February 2011. Lilwen was bred by Evans Welsh in Joseph, Oregon.
Do you guys train larger horses? And do you know anyone in Australia who uses these techniques?
