Clicker Training for All Equids
Learn the practical application of training via positive reinforcement with your equid, wherever you are.
Learn through video coaching, where I meet with you in real-time and walk you through all of the nuances of teaching your equids via positive reinforcement, or submit videos and schedule a call to review those videos together, if you cannot meet live.
During your discovery session, we’ll have a chance to make sure your tech will work wherever your equid is, and I’ll coach you through some basic exercises with your equid so that you can see if virtual coaching is right for you.
If you are unable to join a video call live with your equid, you can submit your videos instead and we’ll schedule a call to go over them together.
Success builds confidence in both human and animal.
Build mutually trusting relationships.
Here are some of the things you’ll learn with me…
How to safely introduce food reinforcers to your equids and develop their manners around food.
How to teach your equid to come when called, self halter, and lead.

Flexible training protocols…
“My horse and I love our online training sessions, recorded video feedback, and phone conversations with Michelle Martiya !! She sees things I can’t or don’t. And she’s a professional all the way in Florida that has allowed my relationship w/my severely human-aggressive rescue-rehab horse to flourish and develop. Michelle sees the gaps I feel but can’t articulate... sees the holes in my training before they have really manifested... and gives us flexible training protocols for improvement. ”
