I try to do Energy with my horse, and he is trotting in random moments, how can I teach him to trot on my Energy? When you learn how to access the Energy, then your horse is your teacher. You do not need to teach your horse anything. Your horse is born as the Energy

Movement created by NA is free from any tensions. The horse is moving in the most relaxed and calm way. In this movement, a horse can explore and expand his body awareness. It is a very great gift we can give our horses: We can give them an opportunity for a very calm movement that will

Calming signals is a term introduced by Norwegian dog trainer Turid Rugaas (2005) to describe the behaviors that dogs show when trying to calm a situation. For animals living in groups, ways of communication, that can discharge the potentially tense situation, are extremely important.

I would love to introduce you to the Calming technique, before your experience of NA starts. I want you to have time to really digest and understand our approach before you will try it with your horses. I want you to feel comfortable and not to hurry yourself. I’d love you to have time to ask
