Horses are instinctive animals that are born with a set of general rules for survival provided by Mother Nature.  When horses see something or are put in situations that break these rules they many times react in ways that can be dangerous or at minimum greatly effect show performance.  Tony Simonetti confronts these built in fears head on and proves to the horses that the things and situations presented in our world are not a threat.  Tony strategically makes the unfamiliar familiar to your horse which in turn provides your horse with the confidence to perform.
