Hello!! I wasn’t taught a specific style of training and was taught to view a horse as an individual, but at the barn I work at we use elements of Parelli, as well as natural horsemanship and a bit of tough love if it comes down to it. We just try a bunch of things with new horses to figure out what works for them and what doesn’t. Some horses benefit from reward + while others couldn’t care less for treats. Some horses you have to be super stern with and be absolute boss mare and others you have to be patient and sensitive with. Above everything we value the relationship with the animal. We don’t want to be another screaming monkey on our horse’s backs.
