This is the first app in a series of 6 horse riding/training apps. iHorseRider-1: Lesson one, The Foundation, teaches the basics that all horses should know under saddle. This is a continuation of iHorseTrainer app. The app includes free videos, animation, and troubleshooting.
It also includes something no other app offers: free online personal help through email or FaceBook, with expert horse trainer Randy Byers. He can help you work through any “trouble spots“ that you might encounter with your horse while following this program. The visual drawings will give you clarity on cues and aids. You will learn the how and why of using cues and aids, specifically which cues and aids move which body parts and when and how to use and teach your horse each cue.
