In this video, Karen takes a big picture view of different types of sessions you can do with your horse. You can focus on teaching them something specific, or exercising their bodies, letting them have time to reset, or you can give them more exposure to different things and situations.

Karen also has a podcast on this subject: Horse Training In Harmony, Episode 159: Horse School
