"Why is my horse doing this?!?"
This is the most common response I receive from owner's. At Säker, our mission is simple, no really simple, as in "KISS" (Keep It Surprisingly Simple).
As a student of Säker, you focus on this fundamental principle, "KISS". Why you ask, well I say why not! Most people, especially women (and the horse industry is 2/3rds women), tend to overthink what they consider to be "problems" with their horse. So our mission at Säker is to break down this communication barrier with "KISS". We explain that horse training is 90% common sense (i.e. "Do I really want my horse to do this?"), and 10% know-how ("No, so I will do this instead."). We focus on removing the "emotion factor" (No, your horse is not attempting to drive you mad, well, most of the time.).
"Wait, wait," you say, "But I don't have a horse...". Even better. You get to learn from beginning to end training, care, management, and horse/life lessons without previous influence, and without the barriers put in place by previous riding experiences.
By focusing on "KISS", we are able to produce a more confident you (in the barn, showring, on the trail, and yes, even at work or at school). Säker means confidence. Confidence is defined as "faithfulness, asurety, trustworthiness, reliability, belief in oneself". All of these qualities we want not only in ourselves, but in our relationship with our horse. At Säker, we are confidence in motion!
