For years psychologists all over the world, have researched how people learn, and thousands of scientific studies have been conducted to identify the way that people learn and how to teach them. The whole world has an education system for humans based on these scientific studies.

It would seem reasonable to do the same for our animals.

The results of scientific studies of animal behaviour has produced proven information on how and what horses can learn, and how it is best to ethically teach them. We can now train horses efficiently and predominantly without stress using this knowledge. Information on the wastage rates in the horse industry is now regularly published in the press. By imporoving our basic training methods and systems we can reduce this senseless wastage of our equine friends.
