SHORT COURSES & CAMPS

Whether you’re a recreational rider looking to improve your relationship with your horse, or a professional with a busy schedule wanting to hone your horsemanship skills for competition or peak performance, consider a short course or camp with the International Horsemans Institute.

Introduction to the Principles & Purpose of IHI
As part of our conviction that natural horsemanship methods are the foundation stone on which all equestrian skills and discipline can be built, and our commitment to introducing practical safety and communication skills to as many people as possible, Tony Lander (Principal) travels around Australia to Pony Clubs, Equestrian Establishments, Agistment Properties to demonstrate and teach horsemanship basics to interested parties in half or full day Demonstrations.  click here to see the latest list of events or book now if you would like to see a scheduled demonstration.

Weekend Intensive
Bring your horse for a fun and fascinating exploration of your relationship and witness amazing changes in you both as you learn to really listen to each other and learn to communicate.  Small groups mean that we can closely align the program to your own individual goals and devote time to one on one tuition, as well as facilitating group play sessions so you can feel safe and you and your horse can start to have fun together again!

Multi-Day Camps Getaway from the stresses and strains of daily life and breakaway from routine with your horse.  Learn to have fun together, to play and explore new vistas, opportunities and horizons as you immerse yourself in the development of a relationship with your horse that allows your dreams to come true. The real benefit of a camp is the uninterrupted time with your horse – no need for phones, TV’s, faxes and emails.  The world will carry on without you for a few days while you and your horse stretch your boundaries.  Take a holiday with your horse and change your relationship for life!  click here to see the latest list of events or book now to ensure your place at a forthcoming camp.

Self Study Program
If you like to monitor and measure your progress along your path to horsemanship, IHI can assist through the Certification program. The program allows you to work at your own pace while giving you milestones to aim at along the way.
The Horsemanship Certificates are the same as those in the Vocational Program, and so can be credited to the vocational courses should you wish to in the future.
As part of the program, courses outlined above, are available to match to the Certificates, as well as DVD’s and booklets to assist you to study at your own pace.
