Your replay! Jumping Instructors Webinar Jan 2017







Here it is! The replay of the Jumping Instructors Webinar #2. It was a challenge as we had technical difficulties first from the webinar itself then the sound. We had lots of fun and shared so much great information. In "From the Judges Box" we discussed the importance of teaching your riders how to do a courtesy circle. We also give you tips on how to do that. In "Teaching Techniques" We focused on "active learning" and how important it is for us to communicate what is happening with our students by asking questions. We show you how that process works! Finally, in Horse Business #101 We discuss marketing with social media. No website? No problem. Use your business page instead! Our Hosts were Paddy Downing-Nyegard and Randi Thompson. Our Moderator was Laura Kelland-May

NEW Jumping Instructors Webinar. Wednesday, Jan 25th!

Topics include: "From the Judges Box. It’s all about the Courtesy Circles” The Courtesy Circles are more important than most to the judge than most of the riders who are competing know. How do you teach your riders how to properly ride the courtesy circles for the hunter and equitation rings? What can you do so that your students can show off what they able to do with their horses?
"Teaching Techniques. Communication with Your Students"
It’s all about how we are communicating to our students. Have you heard of the Socratic technique for sharing information? Now you can discover how asking and answering questions will create a “thinking rider.” Asking the right questions will make a difference in everything you are doing to keep your students safe and to take you to the next level as a professional jumping instructor. Wait until you hear what we have to share about why communicating in this manner is so important to what you are doing as a jumping instructor.
"Horse Business 101"

 In "From the Judges Box" we discussed the importance of instructors knowing how to teach their riders how to ride a straight line and exercises they could use.

Finally, in Horse Business #101 we go where many professionals in the horse world are afraid to go. Record Keeping. We share simple ideas that will get you started.
