Due to Sue's patience and understanding my mare is far more confident out hacking, with various obstacles that appear spooky, she teaches me now! Our relationship is so close. She responds to words and actions and we are now starting to bring all that Sue has taught us into free schooling

The AEB home study program is equally great for those wanting to expand their knowledge on horse behaviour and those who are completely new to the concept. It causes you to look beyond the surface of horse behaviour, psychology and management and look at the bigger picture and how to take care of your horse's mental, emotional and physical well-being.

I chose AEB because, although I have a background in Natural Horsemanship and horse psychology, I wanted to deepen my knowledge with a course that would help me to work with horses with behavioral challenges and better educate their owners and AEB allows me to do this.

Sue's Philosophy

To Gain Mutual Understanding
Trust & Confidence
To fully embrace that horses are sentient beings
To achieve a deeper understanding of how they perceive us and the world around them
To know their innate needs and to make sure that you meet as many of them as possible
To develop a communication that is built around mutual respect
To keep focussed and in the moment whilst also staying in a playful/light state of mind

I chose this photo because I had been sitting on this box having a cup of tea when Dream appeared and put herself on it. By standing up on this box she could see over the tops of the stables to the fields behind, which she loves to do.

Dream had developed enough trust and confidence to step up onto the box to enjoy the view without having to ask my permission, wait to be asked or having an expectation of a food reward. She did it for her own gain and enjoyment and we happily shared the box together, which is why I love this photo.
