Horsemanship Skillbuilding
For many years the traditional horsemanship or taming prevailed in Argentina. Gauchos submitted their horses to a harsh process of domestication during which they “broke” and controlled them. Luckly, today the tendency is the famous rational or Indian horsemanship. As opposed to the first one, this method focuses on getting to know the horse and understanding their behavior to make friends with them, to win their trust, and be able to work together, as one. By doing so, trainers realized that they could achieve better results than with traditional ways.
Pray and predator
By nature, horses are prey animals, their instinct is to run before any threat. Through the rational method trainers acknowledge this first and then aim to demonstrate that they don’t represent any danger for the animal. Once they stop seeing us as possible predators and start seeing us as friends an incredible bond is born. Thus, in a pacific and respectful way, the trainer starts a dialogue with the horse and this one, in return, responds amicably.
A true trainer
Every horse is unique, a world of its own, and even if the basis is the same for all of them a good trainer is the one that can read each individual and distinguish its strengths and weaknesses. A good trainer is the one that becomes a horse himself in order to communicate with his horse. A true trainer connects in such a manner that he forms a binomial with each horse he works with.
Becoming one
More than working on the other, horsemanship skillbuilding is all about working our own minds to let go of everything and achieve a profound and pure relationship with this noble animal. The horse will also lose its fear and accept us humans. Both horse and trainer will give themselves to each other and become one.
