Horses have been apart of Rick's life for over 40 years. You will also find information on horse training, horsemanship clinics, and a horse training video. Visit Real Horse and discover help for problem horses, and training of stallions, zebras, and zebra hybrids. It is the purpose of Real Horse Productions to define, expand, promote, and teach the concepts of Relationship-based horsemanship through clinics, videos, individual horse training and lessons, and all other available means. We specialize in problem horses.
Good horsemanship is the key element to all equestrian activities.
The ensuing relationship that developed as Rick was training Baladdin became the original basis for the concepts of Relationship-based training. Conventional training programs were not adequate for reaching the goal of distance riding with Baladdin. It was the focus on developing a proper relationship with Baladdin that led to the eventual success. In studying other prominent trainers, it seemed that the emphasis was placed on the training programs and the methodology of the training, and not enough emphasis was placed on the uniqueness of the individual horse, the body language of the horse, the behavior patterns, or the intangible things that make the top trainers so successful. Both Della and Lita were victims.
