Horsemanship
Horsemanship is the understanding of horse behavior and how to communicate that to the horse during training. It is a difficult skill to master and the foundation of all other disciplines.
It is the ability of understanding the non-verbal language of the horse and how to communicate this to them using pressure/release. If you do this correctly, the horse will understand what you want and will respond in an effortless manner.
Libby offers both ground work classes to teach students how to read their horse’s body language and natural horsemanship riding lessons. She also works with riders to develop their personal goals in the saddle. She has a strong focus on safety and enjoys working with people to help them achieve their goals. Libby is also the designer of her own range of jewellery and tableware which is manufactured in China (resin, glass, wrought iron & porcelain). Libby started her career as an educator with many years teaching secondary and tertiary art students before taking the plunge into design work.
Ground Work
The groundwork is an important part of any construction project. It involves preparing the site for building and it is usually the first step in the process. It is also essential for ensuring that the build is compliant with health and safety regulations. It is important to hire professional builders and concrete suppliers for the groundwork of a project. This will ensure the work is completed at a high level and won’t lead to costly problems later on.
Libby Marks Shepard teaches natural horsemanship to help students learn to read horses’ body language, and how to communicate with the animals on the ground. These skills are essential in building trust and connection which is the basis of all training. They can also make your time in saddle safer and more fun for you and your horse.
If you are considering a career in groundwork, you should start by completing your GCSEs. GCSE qualifications will help you gain an apprenticeship and prepare you for this role. You can also study a level 2 NVQ diploma in Groundwork and construction skills. This qualification is equivalent of five GCSEs and will give you the skills required for this job. You will also have the opportunity to learn from professionals with experience.
English Riding
English riding, based on centuries-old cavalry work, encompasses many sub-disciplines. Saddles, bridles and riding techniques vary slightly between disciplines but all feature a flat English saddle without the deep seat or high cantle of a Western saddle and the distinctive saddle horn. English riders use both hands on the reins and may hold them closer to their body, allowing more precise cues for movement.
Known for its elegance and precision, it requires a close bond between horse and rider, and includes dressage, show jumping, eventing and equitation. It often uses agile breeds that are quick to move and suited to fast competition, including Thoroughbreds and Warmbloods.
For example, a rider’s position in the saddle for the trot is called “posting.” It takes practice to learn when to rise up in the stirrups at each diagonal stride of the trot and stay seated while doing so. This requires a good balance and a knowledge of how to ride in a straight line.
Libby’s certification as an English and Western Riding Instructor through the Certified Horsemanship Association ensures she teaches safe, efficient lessons while focusing her attention on developing a good relationship with each horse that she trains. She is passionate about making each student a confident horseman, regardless of whether they choose to pursue competitive riding.
Trail Riding
Trail riding involves going out on horseback to ride on trails, bridle paths and forest roads. This type of riding can be done for a short time or for a long time. It could be a one-hour walk in the woods or an all-day trip. The goal is to enjoy nature and connect with the horse in its natural environment. This type of exercise strengthens the horse’s back muscles and improves its cardiovascular condition.
Competitive trail rides are held on natural trails to test a horse and rider’s endurance and stamina. These events are similar endurance riding in that a horse must be stopped at checkpoints for a recheck and to be deemed fit by a veterinarian to continue. The horse and rider with the highest score after the event wins.
A good trail rider is able to read their horse’s body language and understand what is happening on the trail. They can anticipate other animals and people, and they know how to steer in an emergency. It is also important for them to be able to communicate clearly with the horse, especially if they are unsure of something.
The first trail riders sought authenticity, sleeping on the ground and bouncing around on horseback for days at a time in the cold rain. They bring RVs and camping equipment, and the music is played throughout the ride. It’s usually a mix of Zydeco, country, and southern soul. The lead wagon acts as a drill sergeant, keeping everyone in line and making sure their horses are rested at the next campsite.
