Old meets new at Buzzell Training Solutions...
20 years of experience blending Natural Horsemanship techniques with Classical Dressage.
A portfolio including everything from eventers to shetland ponies, and prized stallions to swaybacked thoroughbreds, has made one thing glaringly clear... horses are as varied as a mixed bag of nuts, and there is no such thing as one size fits all when it comes to training. I see every new horse I work with as a learning experience and use gentle, slow tactics to determine the best form of communication between horse and rider.
Buzzell Training Philosphy Mirrored by the Masters
"The Equestrian should dedicate himself to the horses' best interests...to develop the horse to his full potential. To do this painlessly, gradually, and naturally is to practice dressage, which then becomes an expression of loving devotion." ~ Charles De Kunffy
"My belief has always been dressage for the sake of making any horse better..." ~ Lendon Gray
"I have been confirmed in my belief that with riding lessons, psychological insight is equally as important as practical knowledge. This approach prohibits adopting a set pattern and forces the instructor to follow an individual method with each pupil, and the importance of this cannot be stressed too often." ~ Alois Podhajsky - Introduction in "The Riding Teacher" |
