Trust-based horse training

I help horses and humans build calm, confident partnerships

— without force, fear, or domination.

Welcome!

I’m Tara Orlin — a horse trainer based in Norway, working with bitless riding, liberty, and connection-based training.

I believe horses learn best when they feel safe, understood, and listened to.
My work focuses on softness, clarity, and trust — whether you’re on the ground, riding bitless, or working completely tackless.

If you’re looking for a calmer, more respectful way to train and ride, you’re in the right place.

Training built on trust, not control

Bitless, tackless, liberty — this isn’t just a method. It’s a way to listen, understand, and partner with your horse.

 

That means:

  • Learning to communicate with energy, feel and timing

  • Become aware of your own body language

  • Building confidence and trust instead of compliance
     

This approach creates horses that are willing, relaxed, and mentally present — not shut down or over-controlled.

For the people who feel there must be another way

Many of the people who find me feel stuck.

They love their horse —
but something doesn’t feel right in traditional training.

If you’ve ever felt:

  • Conflicted about using pressure

  • Uncomfortable with dominance-based methods

  • Like your horse is “listening” but not relaxed

You’re not alone.

There is another way — and it starts with changing how we listen.

About Tara

"I live and train on a small horse ranch in Norway, where I work with my own horses and clients from around the world.

My work is shaped by years of hands-on experience, curiosity, and a deep respect for the horse as a thinking, feeling being.


I believe in patience, honesty, and long-term partnerships"
