<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">What is Natural andClassical Horsemanship ?</span></strong></p>
<p>Lisa offers <strong>natural and classical horsemanship</strong> instruction that incorporates methods through which a rider communicates and bonds with the horse. The main purpose of natural horsemanship riding lessons is to create a relationship of trust, understanding and camaraderie between the horse and rider, so that the horse will respond to its human counterpart in a natural comfortable manner. The instruction begins with an assessment of the levels of horse and rider so a custom lesson plan can be created.</p>
<ul>
<li>Phase One: The first step primarily covers safety, basic skills, partnership and mental fitness.</li>
<li>Phase Two: This phase takes the handler into the horse&#8217;s world, making him study the animal&#8217;s body language so as to understand the horse&#8217;s thoughts, reactions and needs</li>
<li>Phase Three: The final phase in the natural horsemanship training program helps a rider learn how to use cues of &#8216;focus and energy&#8217; to communicate and direct movements to the horse.</li>
</ul>
<p>Call now to schedule an introductory evaluation of horse and rider.</p>
<p>To contact Lisa Rodriguez directly please call (949) 933-0551 or email her at Rosepine@sbcglobal.net</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ride Across the Andes in Argentina makes a great equestrian vacation. The ten-day long trek begins at the edge of the wide open plains of Argentine Patagonia. The ride takes you into the rugged mountains, forests and volcanoes of the Chilean Lake District, traversing serene rivers, Indian reservations, ancient larch, beech and monkey puzzle forests and galloping across water meadows and sandy tracks. You are likely to ride some of the great horses on this adventure ride, which would further make Ride Across the Andes once in a lifetime experience! <span id="more-489"></span><br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Argentina makes a great destination for your equestrian vacation, if you are looking for the pleasures of typical ranch and farmhouse lifestyle with excellent horseback riding. Patagonia Ride is one such opportunity for you to enjoy your equestrian vacation to the fullest. The ride is based in a 15,000 acre estancia in the foothills of the Andes. The estancia offers many stationary rides, which are an opportunity for you to admire the natural beauty of the area. On these rides, you are bound to see guanaco, red deer, wild boar and armadillo in action. If you are fortunate enough, you will have the chance to move cattle from pasture to pasture. The estancia also organizes pack trips into the Andes, chasing the snow-capped mountains and soaring volcanoes.<span id="more-488"></span><br />

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">When you are a busy professional horsewoman it can really take some convincing. Let’s see, you want me to go watch other busy professional horsewomen ride their horses, and pay for the pleasure. Times are a bit tough right now for all or been there done that are a couple of excuses. Well ladies they don’t hold water.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">Grab you hat and coat and get over here to catch and watch what you can of the <strong>Women Luv Horses Event.</strong> Lynn Palm has come up with something the likes of a private <strong>party </strong>for us horsewomen. She has brought us the best of the best in all forms. The gals riding are world-class champions and the set up is truly first class.</span><span id="more-305"></span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"> </span>[private]<span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">Considerately held in an open covered arena area you won’t get a sunburn or squint. Lynn is right on hand and mingles as you make your way through the fabu silent action items. The <strong>shopping</strong> is <em>all stuff you want and need.</em> You won’t see any ride on coolers and neon vests to hurt your sensibilities. That brings me to the horses I have seen here so far too. Whoa mama, back up the trailer, they are all gorgeous. If you had to choose a favorite one you could close your eyes and point and not have a regret.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"> </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">So, I’m convinced! Lynn has come up with something different and at a level even a professional horsewomen who’s been there and done that is <em>really</em> enjoying. Even my boyfriend is digging being here. Women and horses. What’s not to like.</span>[/private]</p>
