Equine Acupressure & Photonic Acupoint Therapy 2 DAY TRAINING PROGRAM Background: Photonic Acupoint Therapy uses a patented ‘red light’ torch invented by Dr Brian McLaren, to activate acupoints that immediately stimulate the body’s healing potential.

ACT 2906 Dianne Jenkins Equine Services Integrating Equine Acupressure & Photonic Acupoint Therapy ‘08 If you are in the enviable situation where you are able to THE FREEDOM OF take a trail ride on your horse in THE TRAIL RIDE! a forest, or in the bush - across by Wrangler mountains with views to the end Jayne of the world, along tracks that bear the imprints of wild animals, to stop and drink from the clean waters of an alpine stream or flowing river - count yourself lucky! And enjoy every moment, because this can be your Bliss! Or not. A good trail horse is a treasure. A jumpy, easily startled, nervous horse on the Natural trail can be a nightmare! It is no fun to be riding along worried that your horse is going Horsemanship to spook at every little thing - or worse, is with Heart going to bolt if you get into a canter! www.wranglerjayne.com.au FREEDOM AND HARMONY A trail ride can represent wonderful freedom and joy for horse and rider. No more boring arenas, no fences, no traffic sounds, no trap- pings of civilisation to distract you from the beauty of your environment and the sooth- ing sound of your horse’s hooves thudding softly on nature’s carpet. Ideally, you and your horse are in perfect harmony with each other; you ride balanced and relaxed; your horse carries him or herself balanced and relaxed, there are no arguments, only gentle conversations. When your horse walks, it is a mutual agreed thing. When your horse trots it is a partnership in motion, and when your horse canters or gallops, it is like a smoth, flowing burst of energy, devoid of fear, yet thrilling as you feel your horse’s power and speed. It is when trust, confi- ABOVE: top: Jayne in bliss mode with Arriba dence and respect all come together, and all (Hang onto your hat!!); and getting it moving the preparation you have done over weeks or on the trail with the infamous Zorro! months have paid off- THIS is what it’s all Photos: Andrew Kopp, Master Photog. AIPP about! THE ULTIMATE! Being able to ride your horse in a relaxed, safe, harmonious way is what everyone wants - no mat- ter what the environment, and but for many riders, being out on the trail is the ultimate. RIDING CHALLENGES The most common challenges that people write to me about are challenges on the ground - usually with pushy horses that show little or no respect. When it comes to riding challenges, the number one challenge is the horse that wants to go faster than his rider wants to go. Number two challenge is a directional one: horse’s bottom goes up, head goes up (or down) and horse wants to go some- where other than the rider wants to go. Number three challenge is the unmotivated horse - the one that won’t go (usually from trot to canter). Riding challenge no. 1 and 2 are potentially dan- gerous ones, and the people who write to me with these challenges are usually at the point of being fearful and are losing confidence. Challenge no. 3 usually involves something more than what people label as laziness. In more cases than not, I find that there is a physical problem present. This can range from a saddle that pinches, bounces, or hurts - to a hoof problem or a back problem or sore muscles. Especially in the horse that suddenly doesn’t want to go, have a professional equine chiropractor check them out. THE WERP The trail can actually be as good a teaching/learn- ing area as your arena or other enclosed area. When I feel a horse understands the communica- tion basics, and will stop on my breath in an arena or small paddock, I will take a WERP (Walk, Eat, Ride, Play) along the trail. Mixing up the activi- ties. Thing to remember is that circles slow an impulsive horse down, and straight lines speed ‘em up. So if you have a very forward going horse, don’t be in too much of a hurry to put them ABOVE FROM TOP: on the trail. On the other hand, horses that need to Kelly and Esteban enjoy a frolic in the Howqua River; Jayne and Zorro go for be urged forward in the arena do well on the trail, the hill!; Oasis and Tara bushwalking. with ‘somewhere to go!’ TEACH AND LEARN ON THE TRAIL While riding along, practice your direct/indirect rein, It doesn’t get much better play focus games using nature’s playground, do lots than this! Relaxed riding and of sideways and backing up, and in a safe spot, do WERPing at it’s MOST FUN! some canter departs from the halt, go only a few metres, and then down to the backup! This really gets your horse listening to you! (Don’t try this unless you’ve prepared your horse emotionally, mentally and physically first). This exercise really tests your ability to use your focus and energy - and no kicking or pulling please! -this is a squeeze/energy up and relax/energy down exercise!! WAS IT GOOD FOR YOU TOO? I love the trail, I love WERPs and I love that my hors- es love it too! This is truly when you come home and say to your horse, “Was it as great for you as it was for me?” and you know the answer is Yes! Okay, you don’t have access to the bush, and these pictures look like paradise! - (This was home to Jayne and her horses for over 10 years) so what can you do? If you have a float, then plan some outings. If you don’t have a float, then Rent one. (Make sure you go to a reputable person who looks after their float and inspect it for safety. If your horse is unsure of the float, then teach them it’s okay. Your job is to make sure the float is safe and comforable for them first.) Map out your destination, get a friend and load up your two riding buddies and head off for a few hours riding in nature’s play- ground! Pack your saddlebags with lunch, and enjoy! PREPARE, PREPARE, PREPARE! The trail is a great teacher (just make sure you are ready for it!) and will do wonders for your psyche (and your horse’s). If you don’t feel ready, then start by preparing your horse first in enclosed, safe surroundings - first with your ground exercises, then with your relaxed riding skills. The Horsemanship with Heart training DVDs are perfect for this, and will prepare both you and your horse for safe, joyful, trail riding!
