JUST EQUESTRIAN SOLUTIONS

Dr Karen Luke

Are you ready to achieve your goals faster,

feel safer and enjoy your riding more?

Owning and training horses can be hard. So many opinions and conflicting advice - deciding the right way to go can be difficult.

I have been a horse owner for over 30 years and understand these challenges, in fact, its one reason I became an equine scientist.

Are you looking to upgrade your horse knowledge and skills?

Are you dealing with a horse behaviour problem or maybe you are just stuck in your training, unable to make progress.

I can help.

I offer training and consulting solutions that are evidence-based and tested in the real world, so you can:

  • achieve your goals faster

  • feel safe and confident

  • create a better partnership with your horse

Hi, my name is Dr Karen Luke, and I am an equine scientist who researches horse safety, and horse training and behaviour.

My work and the work of hundreds of other scientists shows there are proven ways to create a successful and rewarding partnership with your horse...and I can show you how!

If you are wanting to become a more successful rider or are looking for evidence-based solutions to your horse problems, join me for one of my masterclasses or contact me to arrange a consultation.

Start creating the life you want with your horse!

Masterclasses

My masterclasses are great place to kick off your journey to becoming a successful, confident, 21st century equestrian who has a great partnership with their horse.

This is a great first step to solving your horse behaviour and training problems.

Safety First Horse Training

Modern equestrians want horse care and training solutions that promote safety and performance without compromising horse welfare.

And they know keeping people safe means keeping horses feeling safe.

When you understand:

  • Horse behaviour

  • Evidence-based horse training

  • How to optimise your horse's welfare

Life with your horse suddenly because much easier and you can achieve your goals faster, feel safer and more confident - let me show you how.

"When horse welfare is optimised, horses are calmer and more predictable - so even very young riders can achieve their goals safely."

I have owned and ridden horses for over 30 years and it was through my own experience of injuries and training problems that I came to see the need for training approaches that empower equestrians to achieve their goals safely, without compromising horse welfare.

If your club or organisation is looking for someone to provide evidence-based horse training and care solutions for members and staff, please reach out.

My services include:

  • policy development and updates

  • education programs and materials

  • presentations

  • workshops

I am available to work both in person and virtually - reach out for a no obligation chat.

I think this workshop should be done as an activity at equestrian organisations, riding schools and any institution involved with horses.
