Lynn Palm Longevity Training Introduces Easy-to-Learn Steps for Success

Lynn Palm

(Ocala, FL) - Just in time for spring training comes a new tape series by nationally recognized horse training expert, Lynn Palm. Emphasizing a stress-free environment throughout this six-tape series, Palm demonstrates for the viewer easy-to-understand methods to build a better and more enjoyable relationship for both horse and rider.

The series works in building block fashion as Palm first focuses on developing a strong foundation with ground work, and then moves to more advanced ground work and in-hand training. Beginning with Basic Ground Training, Palm focuses on simple techniques that include voice commands and positioning for good stable manners. Part 2 introduces Advanced Basic Ground Training that provides steps to greater obedience and manners through more refined techniques and voice commands. Working In Hand is introduced in Part 3 where you will learn to execute maneuvers on the ground to establish the focus and harmony that must exist while under saddle.

The second half of the series begins with Part 4, Working at Liberty & Ponying, where Palm shows you how to exercise your horse on voice commands alone as the horse works at liberty while you evaluate its personality, temperament, athletic abilities and quality of movement. She then shows you how ponying your horse is a great conditioner and muscle builder that also teaches your horse important social skills as he works alongside other horses. Part 5 brings the viewer The Art of Longeing, perhaps one of the most valuable tools in your horse's training. Through proper longeing, your horse's ability to respond to your commands, as well as his ability to develop balance through proper body positioning, will increase. Palm completes the series in Part 6 with Ground Driving, where your horse will learn to develop a balanced response to rein pressure while changing gaits at the walk, trot and canter without the additional weight of rider.

"Of all the videos I have produced over the years, I am perhaps most pleased with this series," says Palm. "The development of a strong foundation in a horse's training cannot be overemphasized. This step-by-step series will develop your horse into a safe and willing partner for years to come. Each tape in the series if available for $39.95 or buy the entire six-tape series for $179.95, a savings of more than $60 if purchased separately.
