Important!
The Challenge opens up on Friday, January 23, 2026. Friday is an important day: Preparation day. No walking yet!
Mark your calendar: Saturday, January 24 is your Day 1 of the 10/10 Handwalking Your Horse Challenge
This challenge is about:
- Being together without pressure
- Learning to notice how your horse feels in motion
- Creating small, positive experiences you can build on
The rules are simple
- Hand walk your horse for 10 consecutive days
- 10 minutes per day
- Never skip two days in a row
How to prepare
Before we start, I recommend:
- A well-fitting halter your horse is comfortable wearing
- A lead rope long enough to allow softness, not tension
- Comfortable footwear for you
- A mindset of curiosity, not correction
Decide today:
- What time of day you’ll do your daily walk
- Where you’ll walk (road, arena, property, paddock, field)
If you walk on the road, five minutes out and five minutes back completes your day.
There’s nothing you need to get right.
There is only showing up.
See you on January 23!
