HORSE HELP
Our recommended IH Trainers are specialists in training and understanding horses and ponies both young and old. Using sympathetic methods developed around established principles of horse psychology, equine behaviour and Monty Roberts techniques together with years of experience this way of training has become increasingly popular. These techniques are commonly referred to as horse whispering. Hence, our IH Trainers have helped horses and horse owners achieve their full potential all around the world! They are happy to provide horse help with a variety of behavioural problems including:
- Confidence Building (Horse and Human)
- Leading and Loading
- Spooking and Napping
- Bucking and Rearing
- Clipper and Farrier Training
… and much more.

Got a Horse with a Behavioural Concern?
I had been struggling with loading… Within two weeks IH Trainer Jo visited to give Fran and most importantly me a masterclass in loading. Amazing, so calm, no rush, going through every single process step by step with such reassuring patience and kindness to both Fran and Me. It resulted in Fran self-loading, unbelievable! Having the knowledge to be able to practice myself knowing that support is always just a phone call away. Revolutionary!’
Jo Kulp
Struggling with a Confidence Issue?
I thought I would never ride again, through gentle encouragement and realistic expectations.
With support and guidance, I have learnt how to work in a calm manner, to step back, breathe and see the bigger picture. I have exceeded what I thought was possible.
I have a more insightful relationship with my horse which increases my understanding and confidence.’
Tracy Clark
Want to Expand Your Knowledge and Get Great Value for Money…
There is also online access packed full of useful information, and you know the advice is tried and tested and always with the horse’s best interests at heart. AND annual membership is so cheap. When we are all trying to save money, IH membership is amazing and the one membership that can take the place of so many others. Intelligent Horsemanship is the absolutely best horse organisation to join.’
Angela Bishop
Looking For a Deeper Bond…
‘It was such a breath of fresh air to have a genuine group of people who put the horse first. They’re communicating with the equine in a way they understood. Asking, not demanding and continually rewarding them by removing any pressure. IH are an incredible bunch of ‘intelligent’ caring and fun loving people who care passionately about all equines. I heartily recommend them.’
Sarah Lane
Become Part of a Kind, Like-Minded, Equine Community…
I particularly enjoy the webinars and feel that by educating myself, I am able to pass what I have learnt onto my horse.
Thank you so much for all the information that my IH membership gives me, through the magazine, webinars and members benefits.’
Barbara Austin
In Need Of Support and Guidance?
‘With no knowledge, skills or experience of our own it’s inevitable that we went in search of guidance and advice, but it was fate that led us to find the kindest, most generous and wisest trainer working with such a thoughtful, kind method of horsemanship. We were taught everything we needed to know and so much more than most people ever learn. Thank you so much for changing our lives!’
