Be Aware of Your Body Language

0530_03

Method Ambassador Aimee Rioux graduated the Clinician Academy in 2016 and counts learning to be more aware of her body language and what she’s communicating to her horses as one of the most valuable lessons she learned from Clinton. “You have to be aware of it and constantly adjust it for every situation you are in with your horse,” Aimee says. “Just because you have a sensitive horse doesn’t mean that your body language should always be laidback and passive, or if you’re working with a more cold-blooded horse, it doesn’t mean that your body language always needs to have more energy to it. You have to adjust your body language and cues to what your horse needs at the moment you’re working with him.”

Aimee is located in New Symrna Beach, Florida, where she trains horses for the public and teaches lessons and clinics. Learn more about Aimee on her website. Aimee can be contacted at [email protected] or 386-314-8148.
