HORSE SHOW SCHEDULE 2010 MARCH MADNESS SHOW @ Sandy Bay Stables, Sunday, March 21, 2010 PLUS... There will also be a DEMONSTRATION from a PARELLI student! The Parelli natural horsemanship method is a holistic approach to training based on developing a natural relationship with your horse through understanding his/her nature and understanding the world from the horse's point of view. Wendy Prendergast will demonstrate the Seven Parelli Games. Playing the Seven Parelli Games with your horse helps you to gain your horse's respect. Horses are natural followers. The Seven Games help you to become your horse's leader. She will also demonstrate Zone-Ology - The horse's body and his immediate environment is divided into 5 Zones (plus the delicate Zone) which assists in applying the techniques in the right position to achieve the desired results. And Wendy will also explain Horsenalities and prey/predator relationships.
