River Valley Stables - Working with Horses
The basis of the way in which our trekking horses at River Valley Stables, (Taihape, New Zealand) are trained is using natural horsemanship techniques.
Why? Horses trained using these techniques appear to be more forward moving, responsive, quiet, and be much happier.
In this video, Nicola is working with Rico, and putting him through a number of games and patterns. It is not Rico who is doing all the learning, but also Nicola.

Anji & Kate, all the way from Boise, Idaho
It was real nice to have Anji and Kate stay with us recently. These two, coming all the way to River Valley, Taihape, New Zealand, from Idaho, were hard core adventurers, clocking up Grade 5 rafting trips, horse back riding, a scenic rafting trip, plus, in Anji's case jumping off high things at Mokai Gravity Canyon, all in two days. Don't hold it against them that they are friends of Arnies. To learn more about the adventures they had that they thought were so good, visit rivervalley.co.nz
