chevron-down

7pm | 1 CPD points | £10.00
IHRT Sue Palmer discusses improving equine welfare and performance using the Ridden Horse Performance Checklist (aka the RHpE, or Ridden Horse Pain Ethogram).
In this presentation, Sue shares the science to back up your feeling that all is well with your horse, or to help you recognise when something isn’t right. She will take you through some of the key ideas from her new book ‘Harmonious Horsemanship’, including sharing with you the 24 behaviours of the Ridden Horse Performance Checklist (RHpE). By monitoring the behaviour of the ridden horse using the RHpE, we can reduce the risk of injury, improve performance, and, best of all, be comfortable in the knowledge that we are keeping up to date with the latest evidence to ensure we are listening to our horses to the best of our ability.
