In Conversation with Karen Luke
from Lead a Horse to Water Hosted by Trudi Dempsey
In this episode I chat to Karen Luke about her most recent study linking horse welfare and behaviour with rider safety and satisfaction. Karen is a lifelong horse enthusiast and horse owner who is currently completing a PhD where she is investigating the relationship between horse welfare, rider safety and rider satisfaction. She has expertise in ridden horse behaviour and training and has authored several published papers on these topics. Karen regularly presents at conferences and workshops on the topics of ridden horse welfare, horse training and rider safety. She is also interested in what motivates equestrians and helping riders develop practices that maximise their enjoyment of riding while at the same time making riding fun for their horse.
