Ready to improve your horse riding?

Discover All The Exercises, Skills & Strategies You Need To Help You Create Trust, Connection, Partnership And A Happy Riding Horse - Using 100% Kind Methods :)

Do you ever feel stuck in a rut when you’re riding your horse?


Maybe you’ve reached a plateau that you can’t seem to move past. You’re doing the same things week after week - but you’re running out of ideas fast.


You’re bored and a little frustrated, and you suspect your horse might feel the same way too.

I have some good news for you today…

Well, there is no reason for horse riders to settle for 'uninspiring or frustrating' riding sessions!

Many of our students are in one of these 3 situations:

You have a novice or new horse or you love trail riding and you want to improve your groundwork & riding skills - but you're not exactly sure where to start…

Or you struggle to find a good riding trainer locally who is kind to horses AND has the right skills & philosophy to help you succeed!

Or you dream one day of doing that perfect dressage maneuver (possibly bitless?) with lightness, softness, a happy horse and not a gadget in sight.

To create a happy riding horse, the exercises & philosophy we use to train our horses are critically important.

And we've heard all the (groan) bad advice before...

  • 'Show him who's boss'. 'Put on a tighter noseband'. Or one of my favourites, 'just make him do it'.
  • You've seen the 'facebook experts' who tell you to use gadgets or use force to solve your issue (really?!)
  • ​Instructors advise you to ride your horse over bent, with a lot of contact and strong rein pressure (ugh!)
  • ​And there's the current fashion of riding horses 2&3 year olds, even though the risk of long term health issues is high. Don't even get me started on that one!

So here's the deal...

We are not interested in gadgets, quick fixes & riding 2 & 3 years olds.

Instead we want to focus on building a true relationship & working at the horse's speed. And that's why the 1st step to TRUE partnership means...

Listening to the Horse™


We're not looking to ride bored, heavy, switched-off or dull equines. Or to ride groundhog day horses who never seem to improve....


Instead we use the Listening to the Horse™ technique, and we work with each individual riding horse, build confidence in the horse, protect their natural lightness, curiosity & softness when we ride. And we do it in a way that is 110% kind to the horse.

FAQs

Can I get instant access to EVERYTHING when I join? Yes! When you join, you will get a grateful kiss from your horse plus instant access to all the modules & bonuses in the Listening to the Horse Method™.


Is there a payment plan? Yes, there is a payment plan here.


How long does each session with my horse need to be? We believe in quality, not quantity. And luckily, so do our horses! So if you can spend at least 2 x fifteen minute sessions with your horse each week - that sounds perfect. Plus with our thoughtfully designed ‘small chunk’ exercises & strategies, you’ll be able to have fun and completely avoid overwhelming you or your horse!


Is the LTTH Method suitable for new horses or first time horse owners? Yes. It is magical to see how much trust & connection you can develop and how you can build an awe-inspiring partnership with your horse when you listen! This program is perfect if you are the proud owner of a new horse, or if your horse is the proud owner of a first time human.


The weather is really bad here right now! I live in Ireland where it rains a LOT, so I get it! The good news is that the first few modules are ALL groundwork. So they are perfect for bad weather & when you are short on time. Plus you can watch the riding lessons & get ready for when the weather improves & you'll have lots of fun riding activities all ready to do with your horse.


What is the difference between the Listening to the Horse Method & the Confidence Fix? The Confidence Fix is 100% groundwork and is for horses who can be unconfident or spooky & need to build up their confidence. It is also suitable if you feel nervous sometimes or wish to build a better connection together on the ground - and it's lots of fun too. The Method is a groundwork AND riding program for horses who have no serious confidence issues (spooking, bolting, etc).


What equipment will I need? For the groundwork exercises you will need a halter. For riding, your normal saddle & bridle is fine :) So you should have everything you need already in your tack room!


Does the LTTH Method include both groundwork & riding lessons? Yes, it does. Groundwork is the best way we’ve found to help both you & your horse build confidence & practise some really important exercises & strategies. These are also perfect for new, novice and older horses.


My horse isn’t started under saddle yet, will this program be suitable for us? And what age so I need to be? At Listening to the Horse, we understand that the earliest a horse’s body will be physically mature is at 5.5 years of age. As this course includes riding exercises, all horses have to be 4 years of age or over. We are very mindful not to do too much work with young horses who are not yet fully developed. You must be over 18 years of age to purchase or use any of our products, courses or any items or online training solutions.


I don't ride my horse. Can I buy only the groundwork modules? This program is specifically designed so the groundwork exercises all directly connect to the riding exercises. If you are looking for a program that focuses 100% on groundwork, I would recommend our polework, dancing at liberty & shoulder in programs at www.greyponyfilms.com as these would be more suitable.


I’m too busy right now! If I purchase now, can I do this course when I have more time? Absolutely! I know it’s a crazy time in the world right now, so that’s why you get unlimited 24/7 access to all the course modules and bonuses, on all your smartphones, laptops & iPads for 4 years, so the Listening to the Horse method is ready for you - at the perfect time for you & your horse, whether it's this week, next week, or in a months time :)


Is this program for English or Western riders? Whether you love to ride in California in jeans & a fabulous western saddle, ride with kangaroos in Australia in a rugged Aussie stock saddle, do a shoulder out with poise & grace in a dressage saddle, or mix it up like I do, in a adjustable baroque saddle from Germany and a California hackamore, we've got you covered! The Listening to the Horse Method™ works for all types of riders & horses, no matter what clothes you love to wear!


My horse sometimes demonstrates behaviour that is a major safety concern - such as rearing, biting, bucking, bolting, etc. It this course suitable for me? No, this course does not address or fix major behavioural problems. We would advise you to contact your vet as a lot of these types of issues begin with pain the horse has.


What currency are the prices in? All our prices are in USD dollars. I know that takes a bit of head scratching if you live in Europe or Australia, but I’ve found this handy website that makes it easy to convert the numbers into your local currency :)


What is VAT?

If you live in Europe, then the grey suits in Brussels have said that all online businesses have to charge Europeans VAT. I’m sorry about that. Trust me, horses are a lot simpler to figure out (!), than keeping up with all this VAT stuff!


What technology do you need? You will need a computer or smartphone/tablet so you can watch the video modules & get inspired to try out some amazing strategies with your horse!


My horse & 1 are experienced, confident, and we can already do a lot of lateral work & collection. Is this suitable for me? If you are looking for advanced lessons, like flying lead changes, garrocha work, or the perfect half pass, this course does not cover these more advanced elements. We can recommend other programs that may be more suitable for your skill level. Email: greyponyfilms@gmail.com for a chat anytime.


How long do I get access to the online program for? You get unlimited access, 24/7 on all internet devices, so you can watch anytime you wish for 3 years from the date of purchase.


Do you have a refund policy? If you enroll in The Listening To The Horse Method™, and don’t get all the skills, strategies & exercises you need to help you create trust, confidence & connection on the ground & in the saddle, using 100% kind methods in the first 14 days, just send us an email at greyponyfilms@gmail.com and we’ll be happy to give you your money back.


What is the refund policy for the payment plan option? You also have a 14 day 100% money back refund policy. If you decided to cancel after this, there is no refund, as the 14 day refund period has expired. If you miss or cancel payments in the payment plan, your access to this program will end.


I have another question I need help with. Don’t worry :) The good news is that I’m usually online every day, so just drop me an email with any questions you have to greyponyfilms@gmail.com, tell me about your horses & your situation, and I will give you my honest advice on whether the LTTH Method is right for you or not.
