Kalley’s OTTB Transitional Training Program is built for horses coming off the track shifting into new careers. It’s about helping these athletic, high-drive horses slow down, think, and learn to connect through feel and understanding.
This program combines the fundamentals of Balanced Horse Training with a thoughtful, step-by-step approach designed specifically for the Thoroughbred Racehorse mind. It teaches both horse and handler how to replace both instinctive and ill-trained reactions with calm responses — creating confidence, control, and partnership on the ground and under saddle.
The program lessons and instruction cover three core phases of transitional training, each organized into essential steps and stages, helping the Off-Track Thoroughbred find mental balance, follow a light feel, and get a fresh start. Each stage builds on the last, keeping the training process simple, clear, and safe for both horse and human.
