The Waterhole Rituals

The Waterhole Rituals Liberty Training® is a unique horsemanship method created by Carolyn Resnick to help you connect with horses in a way they instinctively understand. After years of observing wild horses, Carolyn developed this approach to capture the essence of natural communication in the herd. Through the Waterhole Rituals, you’ll learn a method of connection that promotes well-being for both horse and human.

You’ll cultivate a willing, optimistic horse who genuinely wants to follow your lead. And, as you journey through each ritual, you’ll also experience self-realization, becoming the best version of yourself for your horse. This is about building a relationship based on respect and connection—not force or dominance.

What People Are Saying

Rodney Smith

"The Carolyn Resnick Method of horsemanship does not demand, overcome, or dominate a horse.  It is compelling because it is so noticeably peaceful.  Thus, it unveils a horse’s true nature (and yours as well!), unfettered from inadequate training from the past.  As such, it is a quiet approach and reminds you of what is possible between you  and your horse, a partnership that hitherto for might not have been fully available to you.  Carolyn will say horses need leaders - and that humans need to lead.  Having a masters degree in Organization Development & Leadership, had I known Carolyn earlier, I would have gladly traded all that time and money for that degree to study with her, instead.  She gets to the heart of the matter on leadership that typical education can usually only circle around and talk about"
