President’s Message Thank you members for your continued support of your equine organization and all it does for the equine community of British Columbia. While we may be thought of by many to be a “sport” organization, competitions are one aspect of the work of HCBC. Horse Council is more than that with staff dedicated to the health and welfare of all equines; the industry as a whole (all equines & equestrians whatever your choice of activity); a place for people to turn to for information and assistance during disasters and in better times; ensuring there are certified coaches ready to teach our children (and adults) in a safe and encouraging, learning environment; in the last two years bringing informational workshops to communities across BC; and this year introducing a GPS driven trails data base system….the list of services is a long one and includes working with all levels of government when necessary.

become “youth associates” with the age being raised to 19 to match the legal age for BC….”youth” do not have the right to vote or run for office.

One of the big successes of the year has been the approval by members of the new Bylaws…I’m sure by many this is considered boring and mundane but the Bylaw Task Force saw this as an opportunity to review and update the Bylaws which have stood us in good stead for the past 40 or so years but were in need of an upgrade.

Many sections were kept as they are still working well but other sections were updated to reflect current business and technology. So a huge thank you to the Task Force for the many hours spent on the project.

While some enjoyed these and many other events that occurred throughout the Province, others were not so fortunate. Floods followed a winter of heavy, wet and deep snow with Grand Forks and area being most affected….just this week it was announced that work would being on several types of housing with the hope that people would be able to move in prior to winter…hopefully the late start doesn’t interfere with the success of re-building.

On August 21 the membership voted to approve the newly revised Bylaws which have been registered and by which HCBC now operates. As a member you will see minimal change in the day to day operation of the organization, however you will see a change on your membership card for 2019 as it will now show the Region in which you reside. As of January 1, 2019 there will be 12 Regions across the Province…..Why did we make this change?.... for the most part it was done because the membership has grown significantly especially in some areas of the Province since Zones were first used to define the geographic location of members. Urban centres for business and everyday equine requirements have also become more significant.

The intent of the change is to provide more localized representation to you and the area where you live and for you to keep Horse Council informed of issues and events within your area. If you made use of Zone funding as of January 1, 2019 you will be able to access funding through your Region. You can find a map of the new Regions and a list of communities in each Region on line…if we have made a mistake in the list please let us know so we can fix any errors. You will or may have already received notification for the nomination of Regional Directors and for Directors at Large…if you think you are interested in representing your area then please read the information and consider your options.

Other areas of significance to members are the changes to membership types for example by popular request a “senior” member will now be called “adult” and all “adults” will have the right to vote and run for office - this includes “lifetime” members. “Junior” members 4 | Equine Lifestyles FALL/WINTER 2018

On the competitive side the summer has seen another successful BC Summer Games with 11 to 18 year old equestrians from all Zones gathering in Cowichan for an experience of a lifetime. Susan Harrison, VP Competitions and the Summer Games Provincial Advisor for Equestrian, was on site for the Games along with volunteers, coaches, chaperones and competitors forming a large equestrian contingent.

Congratulations and thank you to everyone. More recently the 55+ Games were held in Cranbrook. I spent a day there, met numerous enthusiastic equestrians, was impressed by the wonderful Wycliffe Exhibition Grounds and amazed by the number of volunteers… apparently equine volunteers by far outnumbered those for the other sports. Most of us have little idea of how many hours Sport Chairs spend preparing for these types of events…these people are invaluable and without such dedication events would not occur. So thanks Arlene Ridge (and husband, Tom) for a job well done. Also thanks to all those volunteers and of course the competitors. The 55+ Games are becoming a significant equestrian event for “mature” equestrians.

Floods were followed amazingly quickly by wildfires…with record high and sustained temperatures across the Province. Once again HCBC was able to source and provide hay to affected areas when asked for assistance. However, with fields and hay burnt over such vast areas and with the shortage of hay in both BC and Alberta it appears that many may have a difficult winter…this may include those of us who were fortunate not to be in the midst of a fire. The stress of the long, hot summer and potential of imminent fire was felt by many although this was nothing compared to those in areas actually threatened and burnt …our thoughts are with you all as you try to return to a more normal life now that the fires are calming down.

As always…thanks to the Horse Council staff for your hard work and dedication to Horse Council.

Thanks also to you, the members, the Board and the Executive …..without you we would not have a Horse Council with which to serve the equine community. .

hcbc’s new regions

WHERE DO I LIVE?

Many members don’t realize that for years HCBC has divided the Province into areas that have been known as Zones, which were numbered from 1 to 8. As of January 1, 2019 there will be a change and HCBC will switch to 12 named Regions: East Kootenay, West Kootenay, Okanagan Similkameen, Thompson Shuswap, Prince George Cariboo, Peace River, North West, Vancouver Island North, Vancouver Island South, Vancouver Sunshine Coast, Fraser Valley West, Fraser Valley East.

During the Bylaw review the Task Force looked at the distribution of members across the Province and realized it was time for an update of boundaries to better reflect the equine population and the urban centres and highways that are such an essential part of our lives.

why does it matter where I LIVE?

• HCBC needs Regional representatives to ensure all areas of the Province have a voice within HCBC….(so important in such a large and diverse Province).

• All voting members in a given Region are eligible to run for the position of Regional representative…..(how to information can be found on the web site).

• Once elected the Regional representative automatically becomes a Director and sits on the HCBC Board usually for a period of 2 years.

• Each Region has a limited fund available for projects or events within that Region….this is in addition to the funding available via other grant types.

6 | Equine Lifestyles FALL/WINTER 2018

Nomination & Election of Regional Representatives/Directors

• Fall 2018…a call for nominations will be sent to all voting members in each Region in September/October.

• The East Kootenays, Thompson Shuswap, Peace River, Vancouver Island North, Vancouver Sunshine Coast & Fraser Valley East will each nominate and elect one representative/ Director for a one year period (January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019).

• The West Kootenays, Okanagan Similkameen, Prince George Cariboo, North West, Vancouver Island South & Fraser Valley West will each nominate and elect one representative/Director for a two year period (January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2020).

• All elections will be done electronically, therefore no meetings are required to nominate and elect Regional representatives/ Directors.

As a Regional representative/ Director what am I expected to do?

• You are the liaison between members in your Region and the Office & other Regions. You are expected to communicate on issues, potential projects etc. Assist members with finding available HCBC funding opportunities. Hold meetings with members in different locations when the opportunity arises possibly in conjunction with other equine events where members are already present.

• The full Roles & Responsibilities description for Regional Directors can be found on the website.

Canadian Horse Journal’s Favourite...

DIY Horse Treats Have you always wanted to try your hand at making delicious homemade horse treats? Canadian Horse Journal staff members tried out several different recipes and recruited our horses as treat tasters (they were only too happy to oblige!). These are the top three treat recipes our four-legged friends chose as their favourites. We hope your horse enjoys them just as much!

MOLASSES-APPLE MUNCHIES 1 cup sweet feed 2 cups bran 1 cup flax seed 4 large apples, shredded 1 cup molasses 1/2 cup brown sugar 1 cup applesauce

Mix molasses, apples, brown sugar, and applesauce in a bowl. In a separate bowl mix the dry ingredients. Gradually combine the molasses mixture with the dry ingredients, adding only enough of the molasses mixture to form a thick dough. Add more bran if necessary.

Line a cookie sheet with foil and use a tablespoon to drop batter onto the sheet and flatten slightly. Bake at 300 degrees F for one hour. Flip and continue to bake for an additional 45 minutes until cookies are thoroughly dried out. Reduce the heat if cookies begin to brown too much or burn.

APPLE SURPRISE

CARROT-OAT COOKIES 1 cup oats 1 cup whole wheat flour 1 cup shredded carrot 1/4 cup brown sugar 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 1/4 cup molasses

Mix ingredients in a bowl.

Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of batter, form it into small balls, and place on a greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 15 minutes or until golden brown.

Apples Carrots, diced Molasses Oats Peppermints, crushed

Using a knife or serrated grapefruit spoon, hollow out the inner core of the apple to create a small bowl. Combine diced carrots, oats, and molasses and spoon mixture into the apple. Sprinkle crushed peppermint on top.

BONUS: This tasty treat is also a great way to get oral medications into your horse.

Just add the medication to the carrot-oatmolasses mixture, mix well, and conceal inside the apple. It works like a charm!

making tracks

The HCBC Trails Database Geo-Referencing Project Is Underway!

Be prepared for your next adventure with trail information and maps from Horse Council BC and Avenza Maps. We have partnered with Canadian company Avenza Maps (https://www. avenza.com/) who offer a free smartphone app that tracks your position on a map. The Avenza App also allows you to create and save GPX tracks of your trails. Send those tracks to us at HCBC and we will add them to the trail listing in the Online Database. Head over to the trails database at hcbc.online/Trails to see all the website improvements.

There you will find a link to a PDF to obtain a “how-to” document covering downloading the Avenza Maps App to your smartphone, saving your tracks while riding your favourite trails, and sending us those tracks to be added to a downloadable map.

You can quickly see the trails in your area as pins on a map, print trail maps, upload and download GPX tracks and send us photos. We continue to need your help to review the information already listed for the trails you know, and we’ve seen lots of welcome activity in this area. Please send us updates and comments on the trail conditions using the forms provided. We will accept your GPX tracks data and then create “Geo-referenced” maps that will be available in the Avenza App on your phone for free.

Take advantage of our loaner Garmin 64 ST GPS units. We’ll send you a kit with GPS unit, NiMH batteries and charger, and a cheat sheet on using them, for up to a 3 week period.

We’ll equip your tracking expedition!

Why is this important to all of us who ride our province’s trails?

Current information ensures that the trail you’re expecting is the trail you’ll find when you arrive. Is there potable water? Can you camp? Will my rig fit? How many pens are there? It’s important that we provide the best quality information we can obtain.

Being able to view current information and download a map to your smartphone before you leave, allows you to use our trail sites confidently.

How can you partner with us on this Project?

Ember the therapy horse

& the cowichan therapeutic riding association

Ember the Fjord from Cowichan Therapeutic Riding Association (CTRA) shot into the spotlight this year with a heartwarming YouTube Video made by Maddie Mahon, if you have not seen it yet, we highly recommend looking it up and grabbing a box of tissues!

As stated by Helgi Sangret, an instructor at CTRA: Ember’s short legs combined with her strong, horse-sized build allow her to take both children and adult riders who need sidewalkers. She is one of our few therapy horses who is trained to tolerate the electric lift, which allows her to take riders who use a wheelchair or may otherwise have difficulty mounting in a traditional manner. Her patient and calm nature make her a favourite for playing games and going for trail rides. Don’t let her sleepy demeanor fool you though, Ember is also happy to perk up for a walk/trot/canter independent lesson or go for some zoomies on the lunge-line. At almost 20 years of age, Ember really embodies the perfect therapy horse, and after 12 years at CTRA she is still going strong and loving her job.

Ember and Me by Lydia Montgomery: My name is Lydia Montgomery I am 23 years old and I enjoy doing therapeutic riding at CTRA. I was born with a disability called kabuki syndrome a rare genetic disorder which affects my vision I also have low hearing.

I have been riding for the past five years and have really enjoyed doing it every week I go.

My horses name is Ember and she is a very well trained therapy horse I enjoy riding her a lot. And her nickname cutie patootie suits her perfectly.

This is my second year riding on Ember and have really enjoyed her. One of the things I think has helped me in ridding Ember is that she is a really small horse smaller then my other ones I have had throughout the years.

Sometimes on a rainy day I get to groom her. And sometimes when I am coming or leaving she pokes her head out of her stall.

I hope Ember and I have many fun more riding years together.

SPOTLIGHT

about the ctra:

The Cowichan Therapeutic Riding Association (CTRA) has provided our therapeutic riding and equine-based wellness program for persons with disabilities in the Cowichan Valley since 1986. Services offered by the program include therapeutic riding, therapeutic horsemanship, and adapted equestrian vaulting, as well as winter, spring, and summer horse camps for children with special needs. Over 3 decades of operation, this program has proven to be a remarkable catalyst for human potential, enriching the lives of countless individuals and families in the Cowichan region.

CTRA’s program welcomes over 90 participants each session, and provides 5 sessions per year (plus camps) – operating year-round. Approximately 3500 hours of client services will be provided this year, supported by some 6000 + volunteer hours.

Approximately 14 highly-trained therapy horses give over 100 hours of service each week.

Photo: Ember and Lydia Most participants attend once per week (usually for one hour/ visit) for a therapeutic experience tailored to suit their unique abilities, needs, and goals. While most clients participate yearround, some participants attend seasonally or intermittently – usually for health reasons (e.g. adverse reactions to cold weather or medication changes). When possible, every effort is made to provide a continuity of service through progressive or alternative service options (e.g. therapeutic horsemanship vs. mounted therapy) to ensure ongoing participation.

physical therapy, our services provide many benefits – from development of mobility, stabilization, flexibility, balance, coordination and muscle tone to improvements in vital digestive/circulatory function and reductions in spasticity.

For persons with disabilities that prevent/hinder independent mobility (those also disproportionately at risk for health conditions associated with inactivity), CTRA’s program provides opportunities for adapted exercise and the benefits of physical activity (e.g. weight control, reduced risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes, and increased stamina).

CTRA’s services also help clients to reach behavioral/emotional goals (e.g. enhancing self-control, independence, confidence, empowerment, etc.) while providing highly beneficial psychosocial supports (e.g. helping participants overcome trauma, develop emotional resiliency, and build supportive interpersonal connections). Moreover, equine therapies provide powerful cognitive and developmental interventions (e.g. advancing language acquisition, spatial reasoning, memory, and executive function) and are similarly associated with improved classroom performance and academic outcomes (e.g. inhibition control, greater attention/concentration/communication skills, knowledge retention/demonstration, and school connectedness/ engagement).

For persons with disabilities that preclude involvement in other activities (e.g. conventional organized sports), our program provides an important opportunity for achievement, play, and the myriad benefits associated with recreation and participation in community events. This inclusivity is particularly important for children and youth that may face exclusion/marginalization during their formative years as a result of their special needs.

For everyone involved with the program (participants, family members, volunteers, and visitors alike), CTRA’s accessible stable yard provides a place of belonging and promotes supportive social connections (between peers, mentors/role models, and the local community) anchored in a shared love of horses.Participation is open to all individuals regardless* of age, ability, ethnicity, gender, religion, income or sexual orientation. Instruction is provided by nationally certified coaches assisted by trained volunteer personnel. Individualized therapy plans are developed in conjunction with clients, their families/support networks and referring medical professionals/ social service providers.

CTRA’s program welcomes individuals with a wide variety of special needs including, but not limited to: autism, ADHD, FASD, cerebral palsy, global delay, Down’s syndrome, emotional disturbances, physical deformities/amputations, developmental coordination disorder, anxiety, chromosomal/ genetic disorders, and brain injuries.

CTRA’s Therapeutic riding and equine-based wellness program produces a wide variety of positive outcomes. As a

TRAILS & RECREATION

road safety 101 Be seen and be ready

In an ideal world, our perfect horse property would share a border with public rangeland, or a provincial park or major trails system. We’d never have to venture onto public roads.

Unfortunately, in the real world, many of us have to cross or ride along a road to get off our property, whether to ride to an indoor arena or to connect with a trail. And even a short journey on a quiet road can entail significant risk.

There is a common misperception that horses are entitled to the right of way on British Columbia’s roads, by law. This is not true. The relevant legislation, the Motor Vehicle Act of British Columbia, governs the activities of all road users and states that ridden or driven horses are accorded the same rights, and are subject to the same responsibilities as any other road user, including motorists and cyclists, the two user groups most likely to present difficulties in sharing the road with horses.

The Motor Vehicle Act has two entries regarding horses: Part 3, section 119, paragraph (1) “traffic” includes pedestrians, ridden or herded animals, vehicles, cycles and other conveyances, either singly or together, while using a highway to travel” Part 3, section120, paragraph (1), sub-paragraph (c) “a person riding an animal or driving an animal driven vehicle on a highway has the rights and is subject to the duties of the driver of a vehicle under this Part” 16 | Equine Lifestyles FALL/WINTER 2018

If you’re hand-walking your horse, the relevant provision of the Motor Vehicle Act is section 182, which provides direction to pedestrians. The walking of the horse is incidental.

Part 3, section182, paragraphs (1 & 2) “Pedestrian walking along highway – 182 (1) If there is a sidewalk that is reasonably passable on either or both sides of a highway, a pedestrian must not walk on a roadway.

(2) If there is no sidewalk, a pedestrian walking along or on a highway must walk only on the extreme left side of the roadway or the shoulder of the highway, facing traffic approaching from the opposite direction.”

TRAILS & RECREATION In today’s road riding environment, with increasing expansion of urban areas, and the obvious certainty that traffic on our roads is going to get heavier, how can we as equestrians maximise our chances of staying safe on the roads? Anyone who rides the roads regularly has stories of negative and dangerous encounters with other road users. Do we, as riders, have responsibilities to those other users, just as they have responsibilities to us? The answer is yes.

Our responsibility, to ourselves, our fellow road users and particularly to our horses is to ensure that we are road-ready every time we leave our gates.

Being road-ready means being highly visible, having solid horsemanship skills yourself, and riding a horse that has had desensitizing training and has shown it can handle the sometimes scary sights and sounds it will encounter on the ride.

Second, Be Ready It’s important to get your skills and your horse’s skills sharp when it comes to riding on the road. If motorists or cyclists do something unpredictable, like speeding too close, throwing objects or ringing bike bells, you need to be ready.

You will need to train at home, if you hope to stay safe on the road. Book some time with a trainer skilled at desensitizing and de-spooking, or attend clinics geared to these skills. Regularly expose your horse to new sights and sounds, even on your home farm. Give your horse a chance to learn the skills that will keep you both safer.

It’s not just vehicles and bikes that you have to look out for.

You can find yourself suddenly in the road because your horse spooked at something in someone’s yard. Work on your horsemanship skills around coping with unexpected movement, and work on managing your horse when he’s upset or overexcited. Both these skills are likely to be honed during de-spooking clinics and training. Honestly evaluate your own ability to ride and handle a situation, as well as your horse’s temperament and level of training.

Ultimately, we can’t control the behaviour of other road users, but we can do our maximum to control our horse’s reactions, and stay as safe as possible on BC’s roads.

First, Be Seen

For more information on your rights and responsibilities on the road, visit:

• Wear brightly colored or reflective clothing and a helmet • Scout out the road before you ride • Choose roads that have a wide shoulder or area where you can escape • Train at home, including teaching your horse to spook in place • Use hand movements to signal to drivers, where appropriate

INDUSTRY & AGRICULTURE

the equine national health surveillance network

The Equine National Health Surveillance Network (ENHSN) was formed in November of 2016 following a face to face workshop with representatives from industry, associations, government and academia (https://www.cahss.ca/surveillance/ equine/). The ENHSN is one of the several animal health surveillance networks in the Canadian Animal Health Surveillance System (CAHSS) network of networks.

Timeline:

CAHSS was initiated in 2015 by the National Farmed Animal Health and Welfare Council (NFAHWC) to address weaknesses in organization and decision making and in information and data-sharing for animal health surveillance. It is a selforganizing, self-governing collaboration whose purpose is to work towards effective, responsive, and integrated animal health surveillance in Canada. CAHSS supports the protection of animal health, public health and economic prosperity and encourages openness, collaboration and innovation amongst its members.

Following the workshop, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency provided a part-time coordinator to assist the ENHSN in moving forward with some of their initiatives. A contact list was created for the more than 40 members of the equine network and published on the CAHSS private website. In addition, a stakeholder map was created to provide information and contact information for all those who might be engaged in or affected by surveillance.

The ENHSN adopted the following purpose statement and timeline for action during their two-day workshop:

Purpose: An effective equine surveillance system will protect the health and well-being of horses, other equines and humans, safeguard the Canadian herd and permit movement and continuance of trade, thereby ensuring the prosperity of Canada’s equine industry.

18 | Equine Lifestyles FALL/WINTER 2018

• Creating an extensive contact list for disease surveillance across Canada • Defining key projects and initiatives • Identifying diseases of interest and case definitions • Delivering a national map of equine disease outbreaks

The sharing of information on notifiable diseases was confirmed as the top priority for the network.

A table of notifiable and reportable diseases by international organizations, federal and provincial governments was developed and published on the CAHSS website. A working group of the equine network developed case definitions for notifiable diseases of interest to assist groups in developing a common understanding of what constitutes a case. Federal and provincial governments were asked for their support and collaboration in the timely reporting of notifiable and reportable disease, and are currently working the network in developing a process. A template report was created and shared on the CAHSS website as an initial step towards increasing information sharing across the country.

The sharing of timely and reliable information on disease outbreaks provides knowledge and awareness of confirmed active outbreaks across much of the country. It alerts horse owners to ensure their biosecurity measures are adequate and to reconsider travel plans if necessary.

Veterinarians and others with expertise would be better prepared to provide advice and guidance to horse and facility owners on the disease, preventive measures and biosecurity.

Another working group of the equine network has been developing linkages with US-based Equine Diseases Communication Center. The purpose is to establish an ongoing relationship with the EDCC to share information between Canada and the US, and to leverage resources and avoid unnecessary duplication.

CAHSS membership is open to all who are involved in or affected by animal health surveillance. Individuals or groups benefit from the experience and expertise of other members and the cost is the time volunteered by the members. Actively participating members of the ENHSN are welcome.

To participate, members and groups simply sign a declaration that they agree with working towards the CAHSS shared purpose and abiding by the principles of CAHSS (https://www. cahss.ca/about).

COACHES CORNER

the four stages of learning Coaches may hear parents or riders complaining that they are not learning to ride fast enough. Some riders want to jump or run a pattern before they can sit the trot. Bypassing essential parts of equestrian skills to move along quicker is not “better”.

Pushing riders to lope or jump too soon does not make a better horseman. The process of learning is more important than a quick outcome. Learning and excellence take time, some riders are able to learn quicker, some take longer to acquire a skill. It’s not a race, and there is no time limit for learning to ride or drive.

There are stages of learning that must be experienced for any rider to progress. As each rider progresses the 4 stages come back into play as they cycle through their journey.

The Four Stages of Learning provides a model for learning. It suggests that riders/drivers are initially unaware of how little they know, or unconscious of their incompetence. As they recognize their incompetence, they consciously acquire a skill, then consciously use it. Eventually, the skill can be utilized without it being consciously thought through: the individual is said to have then acquired unconscious competence.

The four stages of competence apply to those learning to ride as well as those learning to become a coach or instructor.

Unconscious incompetence – I don’t know what I don’t know

Unconscious incompetence – I don’t know what I don’t know Riders/Drivers: The new beginner does not understand or know how to do something and does not necessarily recognize the deficit. This is where most new riders/drivers enter our sport.

They don’t know that the posting trot is done on diagonals and don’t realize that they need to learn this skill or why. It is up to the Instructor or Coach to instill the skills required but also to explain the “why” they need to learn this.

20 | Equine Lifestyles FALL/WINTER 2018

Coaches or Instructors: The beginning Coach or Instructor also experiences this stage. They know that they would like to teach others to ride or drive, but they don’t always realize that they need to learn how to teach. They may not know that they might not necessarily have the skills to teach yet.

COACHES CORNER Conscious incompetence – Now I know what I don’t know Riders/Drivers: Though the individual does not understand or know how to do something, they recognize the deficit, as well as the value of a new skill. Making of mistakes and learning the correction is integral to the learning process at this stage.

This is sometimes where riding can get a bit scary for the new equestrian. They realize how much they need to know and feel unable to complete the task. They may focus on every detail required to master a skill and become overwhelmed. This is where the instructor or coach should be patient and allow the rider to make mistakes and then help them learn what went wrong and how to fix it. Of course, a similar focus should be on what was right.

Coaches or Instructors: In the case of the learner Instructor or Coach they will now recognize that there are skills they need to possess in order to be successful as a Coach. Finding a mentor and taking NCCP modules are invaluable to the learner coach or instructor.

Conscious competence – I know what I know Conscious competence – I know what I know Riders/Drivers: The equestrian understands or knows how to do something. However, demonstrating the skill requires concentration. It may be broken down into steps, and there is heavy conscious involvement in executing the new skill. The rider/driver realizes that they have achieved a level of mastery over some or most of the skills they need. They perform with more confidence. Then they start to learn another skill and start again at the “Now I know what I don’t know” stage of learning.

Cycling between these two stages is common. Cycling between these two stages is humbling and empowering at the same time.

Unconscious competence – I am now aware and I know or I don’t know how I know what I know Riders/Drivers: individual has had so much practice with a skill that it has become “second nature” and can be performed easily. They are performing also without thought as to how they are making it happen. They just “do”. As a result, the skill can be performed while executing another task. The rider improves.

However, constant learning and skill development is required to grow, acquire new skills and take on increasing difficult tasks.

At times the rider at this level is presented with a situation that sends them back to the “I don’t know what I don’t know” stage and begins the cycle of Unconscious Competence back to Unconscious Competence.

Coaches or Instructors: The Coach now is able to teach independently and instinctively, working with a group or a private lesson confidently. They do not have to mentally break down all of the aids for any movement. They can offer the help and advice their student needs easily. The coach can teach the skills required for the level of rider they are working with. The coach is cognizant that there is a need to constantly upgrading of their coaching skills.

Riders, Drivers, Coaches and Instructors benefit from understanding the 4 stages of learning. Everyone starts out not knowing what they don’t know. It’s OK to not know what you don’t know, time, practice and good coaching will get you where you want to be.

Coaches or Instructors: The coach or instructor in this phase has acquired the knowledge and the ability to coach or instruct.

However they need practice and training to move into the last stage of learning
