WATCH NEIL’S SIMPLE AND LOGICAL APPROACH
Each lesson is less than 30 minutes, and neither horse nor human raise a sweat.
"The money I invested in the Starting a Horse Under Saddle Online Clinic is proving to be one of the best things I have ever done to help me become a better horseperson. You may not realize that your quiet, calm, steady demeanor not only positively impacts the horse, but also the human who is just as worried. I thank you for your efforts and look forward to my future lessons." Vickie Griffis

Neil Davies says:
"Every horse can learn to be relaxed and confident, just as every horse can learn to buck and fight."
"I can't give you experience, but I can give everyone the benefit of my years of experience working with thousands of horses."
"I bought the book and the Starting a Horse Under Saddle Online Clinic for my Daughter for a late Christmas present.
In the last 10 days she has implemented it on her 2yr old filly with amazing results.
I’ve been around horses all my life and Neil’s system just makes sense and the proof is in the results.
Another great thing about this system is that an individual can do it on their own.
No need for another person and horse to ride beside, or god forbid chase the colt to get it going.
Neil, it is wonderful that you are sharing this knowledge."
Stewart Geiger, Winton Queensland Australia January 2023
"Neil, you saved my life.
I have educated over 500 thoroughbreds to the saddle for their 1st time in my life and not 1 of them bucked. I learnt your way in 1995 at a class you did on Racecourse Road Cambridge New Zealand and have used your way ever since.
I Even started 62 horses in Japan in 2.5 months and not one of them bucked or got shifty with me riding them.
Thank you from me and all those horses. Thanks !!"
Mark Blackie New Zealand
Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge.
I have your book and both the foal handling and starting under saddle videos which I followed as closely as I could.
My little colt had attitude and was a biter and kicker right from his first week but we got through that.
This is where we’re now at. Still haven’t ventured out of the arena but I am so happy to have been able to do this myself."
