International Society for Equitation Science

The International Society for Equitation Science (ISES) is an organization dedicated to improving the welfare and training of horses through scientifically informed practices. It brings together researchers, trainers, and horse enthusiasts to share knowledge on how horses learn and behave. By promoting evidence-based methods, ISES aims to enhance riding techniques, deepen understanding of horse needs, and advocate for better training practices that prioritize the horse's well-being. Ultimately, the society seeks to bridge the gap between science and horsemanship, fostering a more humane and effective approach to working with these animals.
