S6 E2: Yes, but...
from An Equine Conversation Hosted by Sarah Nickels
In today’s episode, I’m going to chat about my training approach. Why it’s not just about positive reinforcement training. Late last year, I was asked some great questions about my training approach that really got me thinking. And as this has become clearer to me, well, nothing’s changed, it’s more I’ve found the words to explain it, I want to share those words with you. I should say, in a later episode this Season, I’m going to speak about my horsie origin story, so we’re not going into that detail here. This is about where I’m at in my story just now. So, do I train with positive reinforcement, abbreviated as a capital R followed immediately with a plus sign? My answer to that is: yes, BUT. And there are really 3 ‘buts’ here that I’ll talk through this episode.
