Horse Training

Glenn Hartigan’s training philosophy is rooted in creating a strong foundation for both the horse and rider. The focus is on building a partnership between the two, emphasizing trust, understanding, and communication. His training programs are tailored to suit each horse’s individual needs and abilities, with the aim of developing obedience, responsiveness, and confidence.

Training Techniques:

  1. Positive Reinforcement: Hartigan is known for using positive reinforcement to build the horse’s confidence and mental resilience, which is critical in high-stress competition environments.
  2. Dressage & Show Jumping: For show jumping, horses are trained to be agile, powerful, and focused. In dressage, the goal is to cultivate precision, fluidity, and responsiveness to the rider’s aids.
  3. Problem-Solving: Our expertise is also important in helping horses overcome behavioral issues or performance challenges that can arise during training or in competitions.
