Clinics"Foundation & Next Level clinics"
Clinics are available anywhere in NZ on request, and length and content can be tailored to the group (a full weekend is recommended but I can also provide half- or one-day clinics where appropriate). Foundation clinics are primarily groundwork with some ridden work on the second day. Limit of 6-8 horses and 10 auditors (dependent on venue). These clinics are very interactive and hands-on, even for auditors, as we do lots of person-to-person training and practicing of technique etc. Read more feedback from previous clinics "Clicker workshop with Bex Tasker today was wonderful - such a great teacher in every way. We all learned so much, can't wait for more" "I really like the format - a little theory, a little practical. I also like that auditors have the opportunity to feel the timing etc through simulations, and then watch "real time" with the handlers and horses" A RANGE OF SEMINARS AND WORKSHOPS AVAILABLE These require a space with projector/screen and seating. Theory plus hands-on practical activities to embed and practise training skills. Usually these do not involve animals so can be hosted at cafes or libraries etc.
"How animals learn and how best to teach them: the animal training workshop with a difference" Advance your understanding of learning theory as well as your practical training skills in a workshop for trainers of all animal species. With a focus on positive reinforcement and plenty of hands-on practical exercises, this workshop will provide you with the tools to truly understand the science behind good training. You will leave with the confidence to incorporate new skills and understanding in a practical way into your existing training programmes, whether your passion is dressage, dog sports, rescue rehabilitation, or anything in between. Using simulations, games and practical exercises, you will have the opportunity to explore concepts, practice skills and delve into some more advanced areas, without confusing your animal while you're both learning. This way, when your animal is ready to move to the next level you will already have the roadmap and the skills to ensure success. Suitable for any and all level of trainer - from beginner to advanced. These clinics are held indoors, and are open to dog and exotics trainers as well, adding depth to the conversations. Contact me for more details or if you are interested in hosting. |
Tabletop clicker training simulation games - perfect for practicing shaping, adding cues, timing and many other concepts and skills. Plus they're just a WHOLE lot of fun!
Practicing targeting on each other helps ensure we are coordinated and clear on the task before starting to train the horses.
