Equinars are the solution to learning advanced horsemanship skills.
Equinars are lectures for students to learn about different topics. They include lectures as well as demonstrations, are typically full day topics, and give attendees an in-depth view into a particular topic.
25 instructors came together on September 8, 2018 to improve their teaching skills during our Instruct the Instructors workshop with Isabelle von Neumann-Cosel. It was a magnificent day filled with great pearls of wisdom and interactive discussion about each lesson. Each rider shared their stories, challenges, and helped shape the goals for the lesson. Instructors added input to the lesson.
Isabelle, time after time, proved that by focusing on rider position, the horse improved, the rider achieved their goals, and riders walked away with tools they could actively apply to their daily riding.
Isabelle von Neumann-Cosel returned to Encore for a two-day riding clinic! 16 riders rode for Isabelle, each with a very positive experience.This clinic was attended by a number of auditors who raved about the experience they had. Isabelle made sure to talk to the auditors between rides, answering questions and discussing techniques.
In addition, we held a 2-hour classroom lecture with a live demonstration rider at Stonebrook Farm. 70 attendees were taken on an eye-opening journey of how their biomechanics affect their individual position on a horse. Conformation of horse and rider was discussed in detail, as well as techniques for getting more from the horse by improving rider position.
A huge thank you to Tracy Trainum for being such a willing demo rider! Many thanks to dear friends Linda Speer for lending us her beautiful facility to accommodate such a large audience, and to her daughter and grandaughter Nikki and Zoe Witte for allowing Tracey to ride Grand Prix horse Cassac!
In a classroom setting Taruna Barber will be using a combination of sports psychology and energy healing to help riders overcome any insecurities they have about their riding abilities, what "might happen" on a horse, and give them the tools they need to create a positive ride every time!

Are you a rider but not a horseman? Want to gain an in-depth knowledge of horses and deepen your relationship with your own horse? Getting ready to take the plunge and buy your first horse?
Sometimes you just need some good old fashioned hands-on guidance from an expert. Encore is focused on strengthening the relationship between horse and rider.
So what's an Equinar? An Equinar is a combination workshop, lecture, with some topics offering hands-on personal experience where participants work under direction on specific topics.
Our recent Equinar included the Topics:
