Yesterday I shared a first ride that I did individually. This way you can see two different methods we did what we like to call a team first ride today. The idea is to put less pressure on the horse from the rider while transitioning to teaching a horse how to be comfortable holding there rider the pressure will continue to come from the ground. The goal in this ride is to end when the horse is comfortable in both directions at a walk trot and lope. As you will see also in this video there is a point that the horse does blow up and Ashlyn comes off. We correct that with pressure and making the horse work instantly after the action. Once Ashlyn is ready we take the horse back to riding like it never happened and we don’t stop untill once again the horse is relaxed and ready to end on a good note

(+)This is miss piggy aka Lilly:) we have already prepped miss piggy with ground work to this point. Here we are on her first ride. As you can see I’m going to attempt to apply foot pressure to introduce it but chances are they will not know what foot pressure is at this time. This is why I bring the rope on the saddle with me to apply extra pressure in attempts to get this horse in a forward motion. My main goal on the first ride is not direction but teaching my horse to comfortably be able to hold and pack my weight on there back at all three transitions in both directions before ending my ride and releasing them at the end.

Using another horse to help build confidence in a young horse can create a more comfortable environment do to the natural instincts a horse has to build a bond with there herd. Using natural instincts to our advantage makes a huge difference in the progress of a young horse

Confidence and control in the arena

This gelding when he got to us was scared of everything around him scared of people on the ground scared to even be touched or caught in his pen. After a combination of ground work by me and Ashlyn at absolute training this gelding is now building all kinds of confidence and holding a rider with smooth pride and confidence

You can’t get a horse to move like this without teaching the proper leg pressure

Introducing direction by leg pressure only on this young filly. So many people think the control is in the face of the horse and they forget all about the body control

This one may be a fun one lol first time saddled is the only time we allow a horse to buck if they intend to. It makes them realize how hard of work it is to do so and a horse’s natural instinct is to conserve energy there for her release from the pressure and work is allowing her to rest once she is done bucking

First ride on the sorrel colt after proper preparation. This colt had a good first ride however needs a bit more softening In the face to ease his handle

The lil bay mare’s first ride went smooth with proper preparation

(+) We have had Myrtle (paint mare) in training for coming at a year now and she has become a well oiled working ranch horse. The sorrel colt is a fresh start with not much handling. He’s proven to be a bit stubborn with lack of respect on the ground for handling so we call in a trusty partner for back up. Working colts off colts for smooth progress and double birds with one stone (+)
