Teaching your horse to face up and establish bonding using the unique John Chatterton Affiliative Horsemanship method. John uses the Step One Facing Up technique to gently build confidence in horses which run away from people through lack of confidence. He teaches calmly bonding with horses and building trust and uses this step for new and young foals also.
