Summary

In this episode I continue my exploration of what we can do to help horses when they are being mistreated. Helping to improve horse welfare isn’t just about taking action in the worst cases, it is about bringing awareness to the smaller moments in a way that creates change.  About the Host: Karen Rohlf, author and creator of Dressage Naturally, is an internationally recognized clinician who is changing the equestrian educational paradigm. She teaches students of all disciplines and levels from around the world in her clinics and the Dressage Naturally virtual programs.  Karen is well known for training horses with a priority on partnership, a student-empowering approach to teaching, and a positive and balanced point of view. She believes in getting to the heart of our mental, emotional, and physical partnership with our horses by bringing together the best of the worlds of dressage and partnership-based training.   Karen’s passion for teaching extends beyond horse training. Her For The Love Of The Horse: Transform Your Business program is a result of her commitment to helping heart-centered equine professionals thrive so that horses may have a happier life in this industry.    Resource Links: Blog: What to do when you see mistreatment: https://blog.dressagenaturally.net/what-to-do-when-you-see-abuse  BLOG: A few ways to look at welfare issues: https://blog.dressagenaturally.net/a-few-ways-to-look-at-horse-welfare-issues   BLOG: Smoke Mirrors & Horse Welfare: https://blog.dressagenaturally.net/smoke-mirrors-horse-welfare   AUDIOBOOK Dressage Naturally: https://go.dressagenaturally.net/book-audio-573092   Karen’s VIDEO CLASSROOM : https://dnc.dressagenaturally.net/   Ask a question or leave a message for the pod: http…
