Equine Influence

Equine Influence Welcome to Equine Influence - Combining Equine Behaviour and Rider Biomechanics. Our coaching techniques are very streamlined.

Equine Influence is run by Cara Kimber - A Ride With Your Mind Biomechanics Coach, having trained with Mary Wanless in the UK and an Intelligent Horsemanship Trainer - building your bond with your horse from the ground up, having trained with Kelly Marks, Monty Roberts UK base of trainers. Working from the ground up, at Equine Influence we believe that your relationship is important and starts on

the ground. A passionate advocate for fostering a deep and meaningful connection between humans and horses. With a unique ability to connect with horses on a deeper level, I help nurture the horse-human relationship. Through understanding their non-verbal cues, body language, and energy, I create a safe and trusting environment for both horse and rider. Whether you want a relationship check-up or are having a specific issue around loading, difficulty catching, saddling up, long reining or difficulty clipping or with the farrier, then help is here. The ‘Ride With Your Mind’ approach is a tremendous advance in teaching and learning. It shows any rider how to organize her mind and body in the same way as the riders we call ‘talented’. This enables each person to learn the same feels and to achieve the same results. By increasing each rider’s body awareness and using innovative imaging techniques, we help riders understand both what to do and how to do it. The bottom line is that improvements in concentration, body awareness, and core muscle strength create incredible improvements both in the rider's seat, and in the horse's response to the riders body. These can be obtained in a very short time, defying traditional expectations. Learning then becomes satisfying, exciting, and fun! With my expertise in equine behavior and biomechanics, I help riders unlock their full potential while nurturing a harmonious partnership with their equine companions.

Today the herd moved home. Everyone was so good loading and traveling. 7 horses in 3 float loads. They are very happy boys. Thanks to Georgie and Clint and Warrick for helping.

A super day yesterday taking the very handsome Dudley Park Draig to the very first WA State Waler Championship. A great turn out, relaxed atmosphere and fun inclusive day. With handling, ridden and showing classes plus a fun pleasure obstacle class to finish. Draig let everybody know he was there and that he was a boy of stature, but even with this excitement he did so very well winning championship youngster 3 years and under and the Dudley Park class and runner up with the pleasure class which I was super proud of how well he did. Very proud mummy day. Huge thanks to Alicia Quaife, Carmen Bairstow, Samantha Bairstow for organising such a great event. And to today’s birthday boy Warrick McGregor for support on the day and on going. And visiting groom extraordinaire Viki Flint. Looking forward to seeing official photos but here are a couple and video of his obstacle class. ❤️
Ps: this is his second outing at 2 years old after coming from a wild run herd a year ago. Very impressed with how he has taken everything in his stride.

Hi Everyone , I’m looking for some short videos of people riding that I can do voiceovers to explain some rider biomechanics. Would anyone be prepared to send me some, it’s not about you, I wont be critiquing your riding, it’s to help educate people on common biomechanics changes. It doesn’t need to be fancy and 30 seconds is plenty.

Better than the best foot trimmer 🥰 Spending time with the nervous boy today.

When you have the best foot trimmer to do your ponies Blue was just amazing for his first trim and Belinda so quiet with him.

"Fantastic clinic with Cara and Equine Influence this weekend, and the weather was kind too :) My horse has developed so well with the help of Cara and is finally growing up and becoming a pleasure to take out, with a quiet confidence I didn't think we would reach. Learnt heaps, had fun, I'm a bit stiff but that must be good :)"
This feedback came in 11 years ago—and the approach hasn’t changed:

✅ A fun, supportive vibe where you and your horse grow

If your horse pulls back, crowds your space, fidgets, ignores you, or just doesn’t feel with you on the ground—this clinic is for you.
