Find an Instructor in Your Area

Whether you’re facing specific training challenges or simply want to strengthen your partnership and explore a more ethical, relationship-based approach our Think Like a Pony Instructors can help. 

Who is this for? 

✔️ Families who want to work with their pony in a way that prioritises trust, respect and ethical horsemanship. 
✔️ Owners of any age who are looking to improve their confidence or horsemanship skill —whether on the ground, in the saddle, or handling their pony. 
✔️ Ponies who have lost trust in people, are fearful, anxious, or showing aggressive behaviour. 
✔️ Riders who want to refine their communication, balance and understanding of their pony’s needs. 
✔️ Those interested in a training approach that is holistic, ethical and grounded in relationship-building. 


A Training Programme Designed for Both Pony and Owner 

Unlike traditional lessons, our approach focuses on helping both pony and human develop confidence, communication and trust. Whether your pony: 

🐴 Has become nervous, reactive, or resistant to being handled or ridden. 
🐴 Struggles with groundwork, catching, mounting, or general handling. 
🐴 Is young, in need of training, or requires rehabilitation from past experiences. 

Or you simply want to: 

🌿 Develop a deeper bond with your pony through groundwork and communication. 
🌿 Improve your own confidence, awareness and ability to support your pony’s emotional well-being. 
🌿 Train in a way that respects and understands the pony’s perspective. 

Our experienced instructors work with both children and adults, guiding them through a structured, ethical approach that supports both pony and rider in becoming confident, capable and connected partners.
