A great chance to talk to owners and find out more about them.  There will be ridden and ground demonstrations as well as a chance to meet the horses and ponies and touch them.

Christchurch A and P show (13-15th November)

Max and I (Abi) will be giving Natural Horsemanship demonstrations over the 3 days as part of the Rare Breeds display at this show.  Come and see what Natural Horsemanship is all about and be amazed at what you can do with The Horse when you work in partnership with them building trust, respect and a unique connection which benefits both the human and equines.
