Advance at Home Live Events 2025

You have been studying with me online; recording yourself, attending the calls, trying on new ideas and techniques,

learning to view your horse...and yourself from a different perspective. This event is designed to take what you have learned to the next level.

Demonstration & Interaction

Often times when I’m coaching you and your horse, we can only do what you and your horse are ready for. When you attend an event like this, you can let your mind run wild with questions… And I can turn it into an actual demonstration. I will do round pen demonstrations, liberty demonstrations, ridden demonstrations with multiple horses. My goal will be to show the total progression of training, so you can see how it can all flow together.

The whole time will be interactive.

You will have the opportunity to explain your view on what you’re seeing and practice determining why the horse is doing what it’s doing. You will be in a small group setting among your peers. They will ask questions and express views that will help you see things from additional viewpoints.You will study body language of multiple horses you don’t know.

Body language & story

One of the reasons that online coaching works is because I am able to read your horse's body language through the video. Students often have a story about their own horse that changes their interpretation of the body language. By coming and working with me and my horses, you will see my horses without that story. I have horses at different training levels, and I have hot horses and cold horses. This will show you different responses to similar techniques. It will allow you to study body language and will help you become aware of any ‘story’ that you might have that is not helping you when working with your own horse. See the techniques you have learned plus many others…in real time with the ability to ask questions.

Technique & Flow

By showing you all the techniques with one horse, in real time, you will be able to make connections faster. You’ll see the connection between the groundwork and the ridden work, the foundation work and the advanced work. You will pick up things from watching my cues and riding, as well as from watching my horses and their responses. For many students, the connections that will be made will help them see possibilities and problems that are coming with their horses. When you see the possibilities, it’s inspiring.

Prevention & Problem Solving

And when you see possible issues coming, you can get ahead of them and prevent them before they happen.

You may see spots where you have been causing issues that you can now change. You’ll also increase your chances of seeing moments where you could have caused issues…but because you are now aware you’ll be much less likely to.

Due to the structure of the event, observers will not be allowed during the teaching hours.

They ARE welcome to stop by and say hi before and after the event each day.

Q-Will I be handling horses?

A- You will be around horses and the opportunity may arise, depending on your specific question and the current stage of training Stacy's horses are in. Please wear appropriate shoes to participate if that is your desire.

Q-Can I bring my horse?

A- Students participating in the 6 month option were given the opportunity to bring a horse. During their work session, they will use their own horses. This mix of horses (mind and some student horses) will provide ALL students with insights into the overall process as well as the opportunity to see the way different horses think.
