Likes: This DVD training program prepares riders and their horses to successfully negotiate obstacles, such as foreign objects littered on the trail, sudden noises and crowds. The DVD helps riders build a strong bond and mutual trust with their horse. Erin Owen, a Riders Elite clinic participant said “Riders Elite teaches you confidence, how to ride, relax and become a mirror with your horse.”
Trail riding is all about relaxation and enjoyment. However, because trails are increasingly being used for multiple activities, horses easily get spooked. Riders need to know how to properly handle their horses so they react calmly and are prepared for potential obstacles. Those who are knowledgeable and confident help prevent their horses from getting spooked in the future. Conquering Trail Riding Obstacles is a 60-minute training program that features high-quality video footage from actual training sessions. Horses and riders of different skill levels are featured in the program, so riders at both the beginner and intermediate levels will learn and gain insight from this DVD. Conquering Trail Riding Obstacles is a user-friendly training resource, containing text overlays of vital information, helpful reminders of key learnings and a glossary of industry terms.
The instruction on the DVD is delivered by Mary Hamilton of Riders Elite Academy. Mary has been a mounted police instructor for over 20 years, and as a nationally certified emergency medical technician, safety is her priority. Prior to her career in law enforcement, Mary taught secondary education. She now has merged these two areas of expertise to teach riding safety courses and create at-home training solutions. She has instructed at notable institutions like Michigan State University, Lamar-Dixon Expo Center in Gonzales, LA and MN Horse Expo. The company she founded, Riders Elite Academy, enhances horse riding skills for all levels of riders – from beginner, to advanced performer, to law enforcement officers. Riders Elite Academy provides customized training clinics, individualized lessons and an interactive CD-ROM, in addition to the Conquering Trail Riding Obstacles DVD. The academy’s training solutions are customized to your horse’s temperament, and focused on delivering a safe, educational and enjoyable experience. “By looking at my horse, Mary is reading his mind and mine, and getting our bodies to work together. She makes us a better team,” said Emily Boote, a five year veteran student of Riders Elite Academy.
