THE ULTIMATE DISPLAY OF HORSEMANSHIP METHODS
Incorporating both education and entertainment, this challenge is nothing short of the ultimate display of human ability. It demonstrates for a trainer to interact with an unstarted/ unbroken horse on a level the average person can only imagine. Three contestants demonstrate their methods of connecting with an unbroken horse over two days. Each trainer has an opportunity to select a young unbroken horse and show the unique method they use to make a connection enabling trust, respect and amazing progress in what the horse is prepared to do for its trainer. It is judged based on how much progress each trainer achieves just in three sessions. The Way of the Horse competition was initially introduced into the EQUITANA's programme in 2005. It has proved to be a highly successful and fascinating contest that not only showcases the different styles of horsemanship but also educate and entertain a large crowd of spectators.
