About the event
Just like people, horses have their own personalities and individual quirks. To generalize that all geldings are one way and that all mares are another way doesn’t do these magnificent creatures justice. We all know that horses are our partners, not machines, and sometimes the ideal partner can surprise you.
Moody mare? Goofy gelding? Something in between? The most important thing is finding the horse whose energy you respond to the best, and not letting a detail like whether the horse is a mare or gelding keep you from a horse you have a great connection with.
Come join us for a lively discussion with Team Mare and Team Gelding to share your own experiences and learn from others about what motivates our choices, and how to not let stereotypes affect the process.
Hope to see you there!
