Feedback from Yes I Can Flatwork Clinics:
I found the clinic very helpful. Cheski looks at the horse as well as the rider so it's comfortable for both and tells you what to improve. The most important thing I took out of the session was that if I don't like what my horse is doing; I need to stop and think what I've done that made him behave the way he did.

The clinic was very helpful, especially the group riding. The riding on the grass & grass arena was particularly helpful and coming to grips with a spooky horse in a strange environment

I was reminded how much I can affect my horse's behaviour by my feelings and how I must not treat her as a pet. That she must respect my space and I respect hers. The session was excellent. It provided a great environment to gain confidence without the pressure of an event happening

Thank you for the time you spent in the session to meet my needs, I am not sure if you are aware but that is some of the best work I have done with PK in a long time, and last time we reached that level it took 3 weeks of intensive work and the canter work was the best I have seen him do

Hi Cheski
Thank you for that positive reinforcement just what I needed. We will continue to work on your (ping concept) along with the other exercises, still maintaining consistency and calmness.
Slowly but surely all the cards will fall into place. I am soo proud of my little horse who has come such a long way since I got her in Dec.
Cheers

Hi Jan,
Thank-you so much for organising that coaching session with Cheski yesterday, I had an awesome ride and am still marveling at how much I learnt. Abderry certainly has a lot to offer and is an invaluable equine resource that we are so fortunate to have in our back yard.
Thanks,
