Testimonials

Claire and Bon

I have had 2 sessions so far with Sue. Bon came to live with my herd in Sept 2019 after her owner had her scanned and diagnosed in basic terms with fused vertebrae in her neck so she was no longer able to have a competition career as the owner had hoped. Bon was very guarded and lost, in our first session Sue picked up she had an ‘empty’ heart and she needed reassurance that she was going to spend the rest of her days with me.  It was a very emotional session for us all so I did as Sue said and kept telling her she was here to stay. When Sue came for our 2nd session she said Bon's heart felt full and she was much happier. This has continued over the last 6 months and she has come on leaps and bounds and really found her place.

Horses like all of the creatures on our planet,are highly evolved with their own society, Thoughts and emotions akin to our own but also different. This course is a must for horse lovers who truly want to develop a relationship and communication channel of the highest level with their equine partner. Well written, well paced and easy to follow, it gives readers and students a thorough foundation in horse psychology and natural horsemanship. The material is well researched and drawn from Sue's vast experience. It be can be read and enjoyed again and again.

Sue's Philosophy

  • To Gain Mutual Understanding
  • Trust & Confidence
  • To fully embrace that horses are sentient beings
  • To achieve a deeper understanding  of how they perceive us and the world around them
  • To know their innate needs and to make sure that you meet as many of them as possible
  • To develop a communication that is built around mutual respect
  • To keep focussed and in the moment whilst also staying in a playful/light  state of mind

I chose this photo because I had been sitting on this box having a cup of tea when Dream appeared and put herself on it.  By standing up on this box she could see over the tops of the stables to the fields behind, which she loves to do.

Dream had developed enough trust and confidence to step up onto the box to enjoy the view without having to ask my permission, wait to be asked or having an expectation of a food reward. She did it for her own gain and enjoyment and we happily shared the box together, which is why I love this photo.
