Zoë | R+ Horsemanship & Liberty Training

Positive reinforcement is the most under appreciated training method within the equestrian community, and after witnessing how it vastly improved my journey with my own horse, Venessa, it sparked a drive within me to try de-stigmatize and spread R+ amongst other equestrians.

I am a trick and liberty trainer in Noordhoek, South Africa, who solely utilizes and bases all training methods around positive reinforcement, the principles of compassionate horsemanship and modern equine science. I take a special interest in reigniting shut down and traumatized horses, and with equine behaviorism and sympathy for the horse at my forefront, I aim to re-empower the horse and give them back their voice and personality. Along with supplying other horse owners and riders with the tools and knowledge they need in order to practice gentle communication and build a stronger connection with their horses.
