About Felicia Allen
"Horses are a gift to humans and a gift like no other."
There was a time when horses were beat into submission and fear was what made a horse do what its handler wanted.
Natural horsemanship strives to understand the horse's language and to develop the horse's confidence and trust in
its handler. Only a horse that can trust, respect and not fear its handler will want to co-operate, be relaxed and receptive.
Horses that respect and trust their handler will look to their
handler for a decision in uncertain, new or potentially dangerous situations.
This natural willingness cannot be manufactured, forced or beat into a horse.
This is the
gift that a horse imparts to a handler whom it trusts and respects.
I grew up with a classical European horse education which has served me well. However the true insight
into understanding each personality in working with and coming to know horses for over forty years was taught
by the horses themselves. Natural horsemanship is a language on its own and those who have made the effort
to learn the nature of the horse achieve what seems like effortless relationships and co-operation with their equine
partner.
Natural Horsemanship is a bridge between human and horse, one
on which we can walk together.
