OCTOBER
Stephania Leombruno
October 3-4
From Liberty to Bridleless
Silver Brook Stables welcomes Stephania Leombruno of Odysseia Equestrian for an intimate two-day exploration of Liberty, Bridleless Riding, herd behavior, communication, and connection. This is not a traditional large-group clinic.
When communication becomes quieter. When we stop asking, “How do I make my horse do this?” and begin asking: “What is my horse telling me—and how can I become clearer in return?”
This experience is intentionally limited to just six participants and their horses, allowing Stephania to provide meaningful individualized instruction while creating an environment where everyone can learn through observation, discussion, and the experiences of the other partnerships. Participants will receive two individual 40-minute sessions per day (four sessions total across the two days).
Day 1 and 2 (Oct 3-4):
Morning: Understanding Before Doing
Each day begins with theory and observation. Participants will explore horse behavior and communication, observe horses interacting within a herd, and begin applying those observations to their own relationships with their horses. The morning then progresses into individual Liberty sessions, where each horse-and-human partnership works privately with Stephania.
Midday: Lunch & Integration
We’ll gather for lunch, conversation, questions, and a midday check-in before moving into the afternoon work.
Afternoon: From Liberty to Bridleless
Participants return for their second individual session of the day, this time exploring Bridleless work and the communication underneath it. The day concludes with reflection on what was learned, what changed, and where each partnership can go next.
Auditors: Yes. See Registration Link for Details
