Speaking R+ with different dialects and the R+ Horse Summit
<p>Reward-based training isn’t just one way of working with horses — it’s a whole world of ideas, techniques, and creative approaches. Here Hannah Weston, Do Groen and Angelica Hesselius talks a little bit about their views on dialect in your practical training and why that enriches the world :P We also go into our mutual project:</p> <p> </p> <p><a href="https://www.rplushorsesummit.com">https://www.rplushorsesummit.com </a></p> <p> </p> <p>At this summit, you’ll meet trainers from across the globe — from pioneers to fresh, emerging voices — each showing how they bring the same core principles to life in their own unique way. You’ll explore practical sessions, watch training in action, and join in theory talks that deepen your understanding. It’s not just about the horses — we’ll also explore reward-based training for us humans, alongside body awareness through Feldenkrais and Yoga. Because the way we move, think, and feel directly shapes our partnership with our horses. Whether you’re a professional or simply love spending time with horses, you’ll feel welcome here. Expect real conversations, genuine connection, and tools you can take home and use right away.</p>
