Lessons and Clinics
Lessons are given with a classical approach by focusing on rider position, balance, application and coordination of the riding aids. While lessons are geared towards your desired discipline, the rider's seat is at the heart of every sport. We have a load of different riding exercises to help improve strength and balance. We strive for confident riders, no matter the skill level or experience. It is a crucial part of the training process that you and your horse learn to communicate with the same language. Solid training and communication starts on the ground, and there are many things to be accomplished with heeding and longe-line performance before a rider ever need to be in the saddle.

Equine Sports Massage Therapy
The pairing of massage and Bemer therapies is a powerful combination.
When used during training, before and after competition, massage helps to keep muscles healthy, and speeds repair of damage incurred during the physical stresses of competition.
Various massage and stretching techniques enable the horse to perform to its fullest potential in a number of ways. Improving circulation, enhancing muscle tone, relaxing muscle spasms, prevent and relieve adhesions, and increase range of motion are just a few ways that massage can help your horse. Massage can also benefit any horse's wellbeing by releasing tension and aid in mental relaxation. Bemer is always used to assist an Equine Massage. Click the button to learn more about Bemer.

​
The use of classical dressage fundamentals and the understanding of our common language is prominent in the training of the horses at Horse Logical Training. Groundwork is essential to training in that it allows us to partner with our horse and learn boundaries of respect and partnership. It leads us into training on the longe line and further strength building exercises. Through these exercises, the horse and human build an even greater line of communication. After this routine is established, the horse and human can then move gradually forward into the riding part of the relationship and the choice of your desired discipline. Elizabeth offers training to select current lesson clients only. This allows for stronger relationships between horses and humans to be built over time.
