Tip/Quote of the Day # 2349
"It worries me when riders 'clinic hop' or switch from trainer to trainer in search of the magic bullet for making everything go well. Correct training is a three way relationship between a horse, a student, and a trainer, and students have to take some responsibility for their own growth and learning. You can be passively lectured or you can be an accountable student who listens, interacts with her instructor and finds homework to do between lessons." ~ Jane Savoie
