  • Holistic soil health makes for better horses

    Love the podcast with Regenerative Agriculturalist Nicola Masters. I have already listened to it twice and picked up even more the second time! So many fascinating insights shared and in such a way that it joined a lot of dots for me.

    Have also been to an Equidays demonstration where Ben was starting a horse under saddle. I really appreciated his gentle approach and his willingness to help the horse to be ok with what was being asked. I was impressed that he never overcooked the horse even tho ... more

  • Great knowledge delivered in an honest manner

    Ben speaks very well and not once does he ‘toot his own horn’. He clearly states the thinking of a horse, common interpretations humans make and he highlights doing horse work with purpose. I’ve been to Ben’s clinics before and I feel the podcast is a great supplement to his content.
