    My daughter Stella got her first pony in March '16 while she was undergoing treatment for Lukeamia. Tina was the perfect person to teach and guide Stella with her calm and gentle approach to horsemanship. Stella and Sam have developed an incredible bond and a mutal respect of each other through Tina's teaching. Late last year, Stella went out to ride Sam. He didn't want to be caught. I was so proud when I watched Stella send him away, then draw him back in, one of the amazing skills Tina taught her. We will be forever grateful for Tina's help and I have no hesitation in recommending Horse Harmony to anyone wanting to enhance their relationship between rider and horse."

    I met Tina a few years ago for some body work on my boys and help online with my young horse. Tina has a great natural connection with horses, ability to see, read and feel them. My horses loved her. Tina is one of the nicest people you'll meet and her passion for helping horses and their humans is inspiring".

    I first met Tina after I purchased my 16:3hh off the track TB, after having him for a week I really started to regret my decision to buy. The longer I had him the more and more I thought about selling him on. After rearing at me and being very pushy around food and on the ground with me I thought I had made a huge mistake, i did not enjoy spending time with him let alone trying to work with him.
    I came across Horse harmony's website and decided I would see if Tina could help... me out. Tina was very understanding and helpful and never once made me feel like I was stupid or incompetent. After the first session with her I was hooked, she had taught me a completely different way to what I was used to and how to understand and work with my horse.
    I cannot believe he is the same horse now, he is such a kind, gentle, willing boy that I had completely miss understood. Tina regularly trims his feet and has also performed Bowen therapy which was a huge help. I have since purchased a young horse that Tina continues to help and support me with either by lessons or from just an email or phone call she is always happy to help. I highly recommend and cannot thank her enough for the help and knowledge she has given me over the years.

    I wouldn't of believed it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes what Tina was able to achieve in one session and teach me was incredible and I look forward to a long working friendship with a lot more success!! and after watching her ability to connect and handle a horse that was scared of the world I couldn't recommend any higher if I tried!!! and the amount of knowledge that I have walked away with in just one session has been huge well worth making the time for a lesson and spending the money to get tina out if you are having problems with your horse :)"

    thank YOU for yesterday !! have just come in from putting rosie on the float after I put her halter on I did a few backups and stuff just to get her listening to me then I positioned her at the end of the ramp window wiped my stick near her shoulder and tapped her butt when she went past she went straight on stood there while I praised and rubbed on her then she started eating I waited a while and then backed her off she went off straight and waited at the end of he ramp until I asked her to move. the second time went on ok but backed off moderately fast before I asked her to she did stop at the end of the ramp though. so I took her out into the paddock and on a shortish rope sent her around me making her keep her shoulder out of my way and disengaging her hind when asked did that in both directions she was snorting and going quite fast but was listening to me. backed her up a few times and presented her to float again she went on and stood perfectly two more times gave her lots of praise and rubbing and then let her go she was quite high on adrenalin and took off round the paddock snorting and carrying on but that only lasted a few mins and she settled.
    so I think it all went well but will see what tomorrow brings"

    We had a good trip back home with India in the float. We also refloated her as soon as we got home and it worked a treat even though Todd her paddock mate was going nuts in the paddock as she was back. When Rhedyn took her back into the paddock with Todd she used all the tools you have taught her as India just wanted to get back to Todd. Rhedyn also said to me on the way home, 'thankyou so much mum" for that week with you as she had learnt so much and was feeling confident with what she has learnt. So thankyou Tina for all that you have done for India and Rhedyn and we will come back for some one day clinics and when finances are good can look at another kids camp. You have been our life saver.

    Good evening Tina,
    Trust you are well rested after the Holiday camp. Once again thank you, it has given Helen a whole set of new skills to work with. She truly believes this is the right way to move forward with her relationship with Minnie. It is wonderful to see. Need to confirm a suitable time for Helen to come over for a lesson. We chatted about sometime this Friday. Please advise if this suits?
    Looking forward to hearing from you."

    Tina came from Rotorua to Tauriko Tauranga and worked in a gentle and kind manner with our horse Rosie who was very sore in her back and had gut probems. We could not ride her. Three days after Tina's visit we have a new horse who is happily cantering and in no pain at all. Thank you so much Tina for all your advice and the care you showed towards Rosie".

    I purchased a 4 year old Colt in October last year who had a few body issues. He was very unbalanced and really struggled to pick up his front legs to even pick his hooves out. He also never really moved round his paddock beyond a lazy walk. After just one treatment with Tina he turned into a different pony overnight galloping bucking and yeehaaing round his paddock in glea. So much so that even my non-horsey husband said "good luck getting on him!" 4 months later he still has no problem with hoof trims and is happy and full of beans. I can't recommend Tina enough she's very calm and gentle and takes the time that it takes and the horses love her".

    I have known Tina Hardy for 5 years. I met Tina in the business capacity of Equine Barefoot Trimming. Tina is very professional and a good communicator. She is also very competent at barefoot trimming and has an excellent rapport with animals. I have recommended her to other horse owners for barefoot trimming as she has been tending my own horse's feet for the past 5 years and their hoof health has never been better. Tina is very informative and has been teaching me how to trim my own horse's feet. She is very patient and is great at passing on the knowledge. Over the last 5 years of knowing Tina I can say without a doubt that you are dealing with a person of very moral character. Tina operates with integrity, and never has a bad word to say about anyone. She is also hard working and dedicated, and never finishes a job until she is satisfied that it is up to her standard."

    I first contacted Tina before we moved to Rotorua as I was looking to meet new people in the horsey world, she was very friendly and helpful. I was delighted when we actually ended up as neighbours! Tina has treated all my horses for me she is very understanding and patient with them and I always come away feeling empowered and so grateful to have met her. Tina is very passionate and professional in her work and my horses wellness is testament to that. I can't recommend Tina enough for gentle yet precise non invasive body work for your best friends."
    Christina, Rotorua

    I have been honoured to know Tina for several years, and she has been working on my horses for a lot of that time. She is very knowledgeable and has a wonderful, relaxed and respectful way with them, and they respond very well to the body work she does with them, (especially my very elderly 28 year old gelding). Can not recommend Tina enough. Tina, thank you, thank you, thank you!"
    Hannah, Rotorua

    I love my lessons with Tina she is so helpful. I have learnt lots and lots with Cody . I feel more confident when working with him and when I am around him. Tina makes me feel proud and happy of what I have achieved. She's really encouraging and she's always smiling. Cody has become my dream pony - even though he has always been my dream pony, we've bonded much better with Tina's help.
    THANKS TINA!!!

    To tell the truth I was scared of my horse. It was a fight every time I rode her. Mum suggested Natural Horsemanship after seeing something on T.V so she rung Tina. Tina is a great teacher and we have come so far from when I first got Cherish. Cherish and I are best friends now instead of enemies. At first I had no idea what Natural Horsemanship was about but as Cherish and I learned more and more I am confident now that Natural Horsemanship is for me. Tina is a great teacher and is happy to answer any sort of weird and whacky question! As I have learned you have to put the work in to get results. I look forward to a long and happy future with Cherish. Thanks Tina.

    Tina is wonderful with her Bowen Therapy and also her very approachable personality. She has treated myself and our 2 poodles (and Maxxi cat) with Bowen for a number of years now and we love feeling so good as a result of our treatment. She has come a long way since she first started treating us many years ago and this comes down to her dedication to her work and the desire to improve her knowledge and therefore improve treatments. Thank you so very much for all you do for us Tina. That includes travelling from Rotorua to Tauranga to treat us."
    Janice, Tauranga

    I have known Tina for quite a few years now and first met her when I attended a Chip Johnson clinic at her place. I have attended some of the Natural Horsemanship Groups she has held and absolutely loved attending the groups. I got heaps of practical tips that I am able to use everyday with my horse TUI."
    Belinda, Rerewhakaaitu

    It's hard to express how thankful I am that Tina came into our lives. She has incredible empathy and understanding for horses and humans with an amazing amount of equine knowledge that can only come from being deeply passionate about her subject.
    Kind and approachable whatever your ability and experience is, Tina will meet you at your level and give you the confidence, self belief and skills to reach your goals. You are awesome Tina!!!!!"
    Jo, Galatea

    Tina helped me start my journey with my young pushy horse, teaching me how to teach him respect and worked with me on trailer training so I could get him out and about and eventually away to be started. She has worked with both my boys with Bowen Therapy and the difference in them after each treatment has been a pleasure to watch. I recommend her to anyone who wants their relationship with their horse to go to the next level."
