Understanding Stress in Horses - Quiet Isn’t Always Calm
A 3-hour masterclass to help you recognise stress beneath behaviour — and understand what your horse is really communicating.
What if your horse isn’t being “difficult”… but is communicating stress?
So many of us were taught to manage or correct behaviour.
To reward the calm. To redirect the tense. To push through resistance.
But what if your horse’s behaviour is actually a language?
What if that freeze, that shutdown, that moment of “disobedience”…
…isn’t defiance — but dysregulation?
In this 3-hour masterclass, you will learn how nervous system states show up in both horses and humans — and how to recognise stress before it escalates into conflict, shutdown, or confusion.
Launch price: €67 (Regular €97)
You’ll learn:
• How nervous system states (fight, flight, freeze, fawn, shutdown, dissociation) show up in real-life behaviour
• Why behaviour and stress often cannot be separated — and what that changes
• How to recognise subtle signs of dysregulation early
• Why obedience isn’t always connection — and what to look for instead
• The 6 Pillars of Soundness™ as a framework for true mental, emotional, physical, spiritual, social, and environmental wellbeing
This masterclass is for you if:
• Your horse seems tense but obedient — and you’re not sure that’s true calm
• You’ve followed methods or programmes — yet something still feels off
• You sense more is happening beneath the surface, but don’t know how to interpret it
• You want to move from managing behaviour to understanding what your horse is actually communicating
Imagine this:
Before — You see silence and assume “calm.”
Now — You can recognise what is actually happening in the nervous system.
Before — You feel stuck with behaviour you can’t explain.
Now — You can read the pattern earlier and respond with clarity.
This masterclass will not give you obedience techniques.
It will give you something more powerful:
A clear lens.
A biological understanding of stress.
And a grounded framework to build connection through science, observation, and trust.
