**Welcome to episode 6 of the River Tiger Podcast**

In this episode I am joined by the brilliant Kathy Sierra.

Kathy's area of interest is in the rehabilitation and skill adaptation of horses. She has an incredible amount of knowledge, skills, and experience in designing movement activities and learning environments that support horses to re-access their full movement toolboxes.

Using an ecological approach Kathy found that the horses she worked with would quickly blow past rehab and into high performance with surprising ease and self-determined motivation.

This is a conversation I have been looking forward to for a long time - I know it's long but it is full of absolute gold so I couldn't edit it down.

Main takeaway
Effective practice design provides opportunities for the horse and rider to explore movement problems and be able to actively find solutions that are variable and functional for them at their current level of ability and learning.

Coaches are encouraged to move toward being learning environment designers, supporting horse-rider partnerships to become effective problem solvers; instead of coaches seeing themselves as solution providers.
