2yo filly learning all about snow and not being able to trust the depth. She was quite smart and methodical with each step. #shiningdually #jsequine #jbarsequine #makinggoodhorsesbetter #goodhorsesmaketheworldgoround #horsemanship
Trust the process & be patient!
Every round pen session with this horse begins with rushing around the pen, anticipating everything, and not really thinking just reacting. I never ask her to trot nor lope until we can walk quietly and I have her mentally engaged….here is how I get there….

Papi’s first round pen session was nothing short of success! We have worked a fair bit on groundwork while on a line but this was her first time loose in a round pen. I anticipated a certain level of disconnect since she would have the freedom to ‘leave me’ but was pleasantly surprised by how well she stayed with me. She is incredibly sensible, smart and always eager to learn. This filly is going to make an exceptional horse & will be available to the public in the future!

“If you are going to teach a horse something and have a good relationship, you don’t make him learn it…you let him learn it.” -Ray Hunt
As a trainer, personal horses always take the back burner. This 3yo has had little to no consistency when it comes to training sessions. He gets pulled out once or twice a week at most but in the last month or so I’ve felt a huge change in his balance and willingness to learn.
Worm is looking and feeling more and more like a big horse. I can’t wait to see what his future holds!
Like & share!! I don’t know about you but I’ve never had a bad day in the saddle. When in doubt I go for a ride!
I’m pretty sure all of us horse people can relate! It sure is nice to get some equine therapy to forget about what’s going on in the world for bit. Like, share & follow!
Played with something new this week!
Long-reining can help to improve the horses self-carriage and responsiveness to the aids, and your feel and timing. It also can useful when bringing a horse back into work or when working a young horse who hasn't been introduced to a rider's weight.
Sorry for the poor video quality…I was lucky to have any in the wind that day.
