Making Mistakes & Wrapping it all up - Build Bravery Through Competence with Boyd Martin

In this last lesson, Boyd explains that making a mistake is not the end of the world. In fact, making a mistake in training is beneficial so your horse is prepared to problem solve on course during a competition if something goes wrong.

Key Takeaways:

  • The goal is to create a horse who can be quick with his legs and think on his feet to react when a distance isn't perfect.

  • Things aren't always going to go perfectly. That's ok! Practice helps us become more confident when "plan A" doesn't happen.

  • Confidence comes from being secure and stable in your position on your horse.

  • Practice these exercises at home, so that you become more comfortable when the pressure is higher. Repetition makes a big difference!

  • Security and stability creates a feeling of safety on the horse.
