THE MIGHTY MINI PROGRAM

The Mighty Mini Program - Horsemanship Lessons for Kids

Everyone gets into horses for a love of horses, but too often the fundamentals are skipped over in an effort to get to the RIDING part! All too often horses are just tolerating their human, instead of wanting to develop a true partnership with them. We want to help Minis and Children together, to create SAFE and WILLING partnerships.

Our mini herd is now ready to start teaching children and adults. They are ideal teachers for little people because their size makes them less intimidating, and they are just so much fun to be around! 

Learn:
1. How to be SAFE around horses
2. Proper CARE
3. Horse Language 101
4. Effective LEADERSHIP Skills
5. How to build CONFIDENCE
6. OVERCOME FEAR around horses
7. How to build TRUST
8. How to read the BODY LANGUAGE of horses
9. CLEAR COMMUNICATION
10. How to BE SUCCESSFUL with your equine partner 


Learn invaluable LEADERSHIP skills to be the leader your horse needs you to be. Weekly lessons start in July, and are offered to 8yrs and up. Parent and child lessons available. Mon/Fri afternoons. Located near Cochrane, AB. Call Birgitta  to book lessons today, or to set up a group, two-day intensive workshop. 


After the program, there is the possibility of adopting your very own mini. 


Please follow us on FB at The Pony Project to see the journeys of these ponies/minis from their arrival at the ranch, to their rehabilitation, and to their successful partnerships with children.

SUCCESS WITH HORSES

At Success with Horses, we strive to EDUCATE, EMPOWER & INSPIRE your equine dreams.

Working together with a group of like minded people, we specializes in educating the horse industry about the importance of HEALTHY FEET. We believe education is a very powerful tool to ending needless suffering for horses/horse owners.

PREVENTING common problems such as “navicular disease”, laminitis and founder, side bone, ring bone, unexplained lameness issues, etc…is our GOAL.

Supporting owners/ horses through the transition process, from traditional to natural, is very important to the team at SWH.
