Why Most Riders Train Horses Wrong - With Justin Haefner explains on The Greatest Horseman Podcast

from The Greatest Horseman · host Steady Horse

What if building real rider confidence had nothing to do with just “desensitizing” your horse? In this powerful conversation with Justin Haefner of Riding Far LLC, we unpack how emotional regulation in both horse and rider creates lasting safety, confidence, and partnership.From foxhunting to dressage to equine osteopathy, Justin brings a unique background that helps him “build bridges” across different horsemanship camps. Together, he and his father (a clinical psychotherapist) are transforming how riders overcome trauma, rebuild confidence, and develop safe, emotionally regulated horses.We also share highlights from the Appalachian Trainer Face Off (Aug 21–23, Appalachian Trainer Face Off), where rescue horses and skilled trainers prove just how much transformation is possible.➡️ Watch now + grab my Free Training: Never Fall Off Again🎧 You can also listen anywhere, anytime → https://greatesthorseman.com/Available on Spotify, Apple & Google Podcasts.#SteadyHorse #TheGreatestHorsmanPodcast #HorsePodcast #AppalachianTrainerFaceOff #HorseTrainingTips
