Beyond Just Training. Complete Care for Every Horse

At Horself Confidence, every horse is treated as an individual. Training and care are adapted to what each horse needs to feel confident, understood, and able to learn.

A relaxed and happy horse is a horse that can develop, not only under saddle, but also the essential skills needed to live and function in a human environment.

Daily Care

Daily handling focuses on building positive, practical life skills.
This includes leading, standing tied, washing, and other routines that create a safe and well-rounded horse.

Horses are trained 5 days a week, with 2 rest days.
Depending on their level, training includes a combination of groundwork, ridden work, hacking, and double lunge work.

All horses are turned out daily, spending between 4 and 10 hours outside depending on weather and season.
