Join horse trainer and equine behaviorist Jess Roberts for an in-depth live demonstration focused on what it truly takes to create a willing, relaxed, and emotionally regulated riding partner.
During this 3-hour event, Jess will work with several horses at different stages of the starting process, walking attendees through her checklist of essential components that must be in place before a horse is ever ridden. From groundwork to energy awareness to emotional regulation, you'll see firsthand how the Harmonized Horsemanship method lays a strong, ethical foundation—based not on compliance, but on trust, communication, and emotional well-being.
You’ll learn:
✅ How to know when a horse is truly ready to be ridden and the steps needed to get them there
✅ What consent looks like—and how to ask for it
✅ How to identify holes in a horse’s foundation before they lead to bigger issues
✅ Why a regulated nervous system matters more than obedience
Jess will be narrating and answering questions throughout the demo, offering a rare inside look into her riding preparation process. If you’ve ever wanted to see what starting a horse looks like through a lens of softness, clarity, and mutual respect—this is your chance.
Whether you’re just beginning your horsemanship journey or you're a seasoned horseperson wanting a fresh perspective, this event will give you tools to carry forward and insight to reflect on.
