Alexandra Kurland is a graduate of Cornell University. A lifelong horse person, she began teaching in the early 1980’s. She specializes in the development of a horse’s balance: physical and emotional. Helping horses stay sound throughout a long working lifetime is the goal.
In 1998 Alexandra launched the rapidly growing field of clicker training for horses with the publication of her first book, “Clicker Training for Your Horse”. Alexandra teaches clicker training geared to any horse need or sport—including working with foals; developing reliable, safe riding horses; training advanced performance horses; and working with so-called problem horses. She has written “The Click That Teaches: A Step–By–Step Guide in Pictures” and “The Click That Teaches: Riding with the Clicker”. She has also produced “The Click That Teaches” DVD lesson series and on-line course. Her most recent book is: “Modern Horse Training, A Constructional Guide to Becoming Your Horse’s Best Friend”.
Together with Dominique Day, one of the co-founders of Cavalia, Alexandra hosts the weekly Equiosity podcast. Equiosity began in 2018 and has over 300 episodes. Prior to covid Alexandra traveled widely, giving clicker training seminars and presenting at conferences in the US, Canada, the UK, and Europe. More recently most of her teaching is done on line through her Stay-At-Home, Learn-At-Home on-line clinics.
